I haven't seen it snow this hard with gusty winds in years.

Beautiful outside

 Upton

.HEAVY SNOW DEVELOPING OVER SOUTHERN
FAIRFIELD...HUDSON...PASSAIC...
UNION...BERGEN...ESSEX...QUEENS...RICHMOND...BRONX...KINGS...
ROCKLAND...SOUTHERN WESTCHESTER...SUFFOLK...NEW YORK (MANHATTAN) AND
NASSAU COUNTIES...

Heavy snow will develop over the area through 7pm. Snowfall rates of
1 to possibly two inches per hour are likely to develop.

since the 2016 blizzard  and this will be in the city the heaviest snowstorm since that blizzard..

i think here in parts of manhattan and the bronx will get over a foot maybe 16 inches possible.

25 in manhattan never was it predicted to be 25 at any point with heavy snow..

thank the big arctic high . if there was no high this would be a 1.2 inch slop fest for the city..

lee goldberg showing on his future cast the mix line in the city from just after midnight all the way to 8:00 am..

So all 12z Models for NE NJ/NYC: 

NAM:          7" - 11"
RGEM:        8" - 12"
UKIE:           9" - 13"
GFS:           11" - 16"
EURO:        12" -16"

Tell me again, why are people upset?!

if the city got 10 inches i would be happy..

will upper manhattan do better then brooklyn in regards to amounts?

i spent many nights staying up late to see what the euro said. i should not have gotten suckered into a storm unless it was absolute certain it would be a big snowstorm for the city

A negative epo would have been nice. 

Once again the models sucked us all in

What has happened to the models ?

even when you had the dec 2010 blizzard a day before on the models it looked like the biggest snows would be far eastern long island and not the city

Some of us can add another decade above that. I remember the fun days with Tex and Uncle Weathbee,. I also remember the night Frank Field blew a snow forecast and the news crew pelted him with snowballs when he came on that night. Johnny Carson loved to use him in his monologue he would call Frank the crack NBC meteorologist who tonight, predicted lava coming out of the top of the Empire State Building. I remember Joe Bolton as an early TV weatherman using a grease pen. That was a bit before he became Officer Joe. As always ....

field is 97 still alive....

Can we stop posting this?

The region gets 20-30 inches of snow per year.

Let’s stop making it sound like we live in Jacksonville.

 

it is perfectly legitimate to expect and look forward to snow of some sort in the NYC metro

nyc got far less then 20 inches of snow last year....

if you want to have snowy winters from now many of us should consider moving either to the snow belts or northern newengland.. cause it won't be happening like it was the last 20 years in the city and surrounding areas ..

Brutal cold that just kept reloading and reloading....2 great winters except the dry March of '15

you want brutal cold try 1994 in the midwest you wont see cold like that again barring  some event like a super volcano eruption..

remember when we in the city  during the winter had many  nights in the single digits those days have been gone for a decade or longer..

And next weekend, 12-13th, we probably make a run at 60 degrees as the pac reshuffles 

what is  wrong with a mild spell following a chilly week? i am quite enjoying the new reality of the winter season...

Wow Iota is now a 160 mph / 917 mb Cat 5 forecast to strengthen even more.

It's still extremely windy out here too!

 

no connection between hurricane lota and the windy day in nyc... if that is what you are saying....

Just now, kat5hurricane said:

Isaias winds were definitely stronger and more sustained. Isaias was the biggest windstorm since Sandy, it'll be tough to top that one.

agreed...

The last long stretch of horrible winters was 1979-1992. We’ve been pretty lucky ever since then, especially the period from 2000-2015.....

we had some nice snowstorms in such winters.. you mentioned...

Just now, DDweatherman said:

Arguably one of the best looking storms on record in the Satellite era with some of the most robust estimates... and that happens. Well I’ll be dammed. 

dorian looked 10 times more intense  on satellite..

those lows are typical of what you get in nyc in mid january...

according to the tropical expert on the weather channel  greg postel he said a hour ago the said the storm maxed out already and on satellite looks like it may be weakening  shear dry air. etc etc..

It's 2020 so anything is possible! Heck we might see a Cat 5 hurricane in November lol

in 2005 we had 3 storms from late november into january so anything is possible..but not a cat 5 lol..
