18z 3k NAM showing peak sustained winds in the 40MPH winds as far West as Northeast NJ and the Hudson Valley. 50-60mph for the South shore of LI. That's sustained winds, not gusts.

I would be surprised to see sustained that high unless it is an exposed location like an airport. Even there that is unusual. The beaches are a different story, they could have sustained over 40.

I just don't understand where alll this rain is going to go go to. We've had 2-4 inch rainstorms almost every week since September. I cannot imagine getting yet another storm like this. Yes, the winds are going to be bad and there will be Hurricane Gloria level power outages on LI, but I'm extremely concerned about the flooding potential with this, especially since it's going to melt all of the snowfall from the past week. I just don't understand how this isn't a bigger story.

I would be shocked if there is hurricane Gloria level power outages on Long Island.

ESE wind gusting to 27mph here. Picking up all morning

This morning temperatures Mid Hudson Valley (snow pack) in upper teens. Near by city suburbs in the 20s. Central Park 39.

Snowing in DC right now

Currently 41 degrees there, probably a few wet flakes that will quickly turn to rain

There was an event November 26 with no advisories or warnings and Jones Beach had sustained winds of 45 and gusts to 60. On December 18, I had a gust at my house of 51mph. I am sure it was higher at the shore. Warnings were issued for that event. This looks to be similar to those events, we shall see.

Looks like in the Hudson Valley the Poughkeepsie to Kingston area hit the jackpot with about a foot.

So western 

Long Island did best last nights. With I guess realistically, .5” there was a full coating on colder surfaces: 

I only got a 1/4 inch of slop

Wet snow here, 36.4 degrees

During the major part of the storm my temperature was between 34 and 36. 95% was just a cold rain.

Not that it makes much difference but Central Park reported .2 inch of snow at 7PM. I believe it snowed hard after that for an hour or less but no new snow reported.

You can see that heavy band of snow on the radar. It goes basically west to east from Pennsylvania across the Hudson Valley around the Newburgh Poughkeepsie area up across NW Connecticut.

Maybe that's why I went from junk to heavy accumulating snow in the last 20 minutes. Absolutely ripping out. I thought it was going to change to plain rain around now and not get my best snowfall of the night but I'll take it. 

Yea I think the wind going from E to NE has helped you and Don in Larchmont to go from that mix to snow.

As the wind has gone from E to NE my temperature has slowly dropped from 35.3 to 34.8. 

Wind has gone from due east to 'ENE and now more NE.

Still just 35.3 degrees here, not really a lot of warming. Could be a good sign for those inland.

5” new OTG.  It really ripped here for the past two hours under those heavy echoes.  Its tapered down to flurries as the most intense echoes have moved to my north.

nice

With just 0.2" of snow at Central Park, the temperature very likely to hold several degrees above freezing, and warmer air aloft continuing to advance, the record-setting streak without 1" or more daily snowfall will reach 692 days today.

It certainly looks out of place

Wow, we have close To an inch on cold surfaces here, north lynbrook. Almost all rain now though

Maybe being a little further west is a good thing.

I have maybe a 1/4 inch of slop. Still a rain snow mix

Somewhere between an inch and half inch in lynbrook and a 50/50 mix between snow an rain

You got more than me.

Up to 34 here and snow is mostly rain now. 

Have a coating here but the snow coming down is almost white rain. 33.7 degrees. Wind has switched to the east.

33.8 and still snowing here.
