The least snowy winter I recall in my area is 3.5 inches, I think in 2000-2001. So a winter like this is not unprecedented and we still have a ways to go to far exceed the 3.5

They average about 80 inches per year and as you mention the nearby mountains get way more. Yes this has been a pathetic winter in our area.

Winter alive and well in North Conway N.H. They have quite a bit of snow on the ground. Enlarge to full screen, it looks nice. https://whitemountains.tv/live-cam-north-conway-village-nh/

Meanwhile 20 to 30 below zero in northern Minnesota this weekend.

Getting quite windy here out of the ESE, gusting to 30mph. Temperature on the rise, 42.5.

It was one of those white rain hitting the windshield. The harder it came down the more it mixed.

38 degrees with rain. It will now be about the wind, here. Had my 3rd biggest snow event of the season today, a rain/snow mix.

Looks like it.

Latest first snow for NYC is January 29th.

Just drove from Staten Island to Nassau county and it was rain snow mixed the whole way

Westchester and Rockland now added to the WWA. Leaving only the immediate coast out.

Yes it is the big snowstorms that have really increased our average over the past 20 years.

The winters are more mild now by a few degrees, but the moisture has also increased. So winter snows have increased, at least for now. I think this winter is simply bad because of the pattern were in. If those storms were off the coast and not inland runners, there would be a lot more happy people on the forum.

According to Upton: High res models indicating strongest mid-level frontogenesis develops to the north and west of the coastal plain Wed morning into early afternoon. This will actually have the highest likelihood and intensity of precip to develop across Interior portions of NE NJ, Lower Hud and SW CT Wed morning into early afternoon (thermal profile plenty cold enough for snow). With that said, can not rule out that this development could be a bit farther south into the coastal plain (although a lower probability). Most indications are for snow development to hold off until mid morning or later.

As you get into the Mid Hudson Valley and north and west, could be a nice thumping of snow before any mixing.

Large area of winter weather advisories and warnings in the eastern U.S. Mostly just the immediate coast in our area not under an advisory. NWS still has the city getting a little snow.

The last 30 yr. average for snowfall at Central Park has to be one of the highest 30 yr. averages since records have been taken. Maybe this is just the law of averages taking over and we got a little spoiled.

I can't believe I am rooting for .01 inch of snow for Central Park.

It looks like the RGEM shows a small accumulation for the city, less than an inch. I hope but won't be surprised if there is no accumulation.

Yea Euro and CMC seem to be on board for at least a turn to cold, we shall see.

So the GFS says an 80-90% chance of Central Park getting an inch of snow. Would be nice to see that Wednesday but I have my doubts. Anything measurable would be good.

Nice to see some areas getting some snow today. I think a little more than what was expected a few days ago. Hopefully the next storm will do the same. I just hope Central Park can get an accumulation, then that'll be by the wayside

NWS seems to think tomorrow could transition back to snow. No accumulation expected at the coast

Glad to see the GFS showing cold throughout most of the United States in the beginning of February. Not saying it will happen but it's more than I've seen up to this point

I had about a half inch in December, in the levittown area. Are you talking about pictures of Central Park?
