The rain immediately ran off yesterday even after 0.25”. The ground is saturated plus the vegetation that has shut down made an impact on the water levels in the creeks and streams. I heard that there was more road damage on route 6 by the Long Mountain traffic circle from runoff this morning. From NYS police Facebook COMMUTER ALERT ORANGE COUNTY: The Palisades Interstate Parkway is closed between exits 14 and 18 northbound and southbound. Traffic traveling north will be diverted to exit 9W to Interstate 87 northbound, except for local traffic. Route 6 and 293 are closed. Traffic will not be able to enter the Palisades south. Commuters traveling north from New York City are advised to stay on Interstate 87

I guess we can call it the new abnormal. The 12z GFS is showing an additional 2” of QPF up till New Years so we could add some icing on the cake. Maybe some of it will be in the frozen type. Always subject to change of course.

Very impressive system, 3.84 since midnight along with 0.60” Sunday up to midnight gives me 4.44” for the event total. Upton’s QPF map was spot on for MBY

3.70 here so far, backend moving thru now with winds out of the west and 48 degrees. Feel lucky that I didn’t loose power, others can’t say that tho

3.72 so far. Backend moving thru currently with moderate rain. Temp is 48 currently down 13 in the last 5 hours.

Same here with the QPF forecasted.

Upton’s latest QPF map has ticked up a little

2.06” in the bucket here.

Upton put some spotty accumulations up this way.

Maybe send him a hat for a prize

Agree, it will take awhile for the pac jet to get shifted. So maybe we can get an occasional snow shower/mood flakes. It’s too early in the season to start pulling hairs out of our heads watching each model run. As for the jets, this season they could play sloppy inside a closed dome

Mood flakes here currently. Had a quick coating yesterday on grassy surfaces that quickly melted. Maybe I can beat yesterday’s and get a trace of accumulation today.

Nice, let’s see what future runs show. 06z GFS is showing a few events too (mostly liquid) always subject to change of course.

Drove thru a snow squall around 11:30 this morning while driving thru Walden. A quick dusting on most surfaces.

18z GFS is also on board too.

06z GFS is showing something at that time. Subject to change of course. We’ll see.

No flakes here yet. Low of 22 last night (actually around 6am this morning).

No worries, just have a backup plan

27 was the low here. Same with the heavy frost and a good amount of plants took a beating.

DCA: +0.3 NYC: +0.6 BOS: +0.2 ORD: +0.6 ATL: +1.2 IAH: +0.2 DEN: +0.9 PHX: +1.8 SEA: +0.8

He could be making the whole story up because it could have been a total blur
