Wow I got at least double that. Went from a WSW for 13” to a WWA for 2-7” and like I said, I’m over 10 now.


.

It's just like how we over performed in the January storm getting 15 inches when forecasted much less.. 

Congrats to those who over performed.  I think around 5 inches here in Poughkeepsie.  Not complaining.  It's beautiful out there

My first winter storm warning since 2022.

4-8 inches 

Enjoy!  Been a long wait.  

Up here just north of 84, even 4 inches seems like a stretch now when this morning NWS was predicting 7-11.  Unreal.

We're cooked.

We over performed in January and now we get shafted.  Sigh. 

Going to get shafted up here in Poughkeepsie, 2-4, but I am happy for you coastal, NYC folks finally getting at least several inches. 

Kids will be upset that they may still have school tomorrow 

I think we are confidently shafted up here in Dutchess.  2-4 inches based on the latest HRRR. 

I am forecasting 2-12 inches.  Depending on which model verifies.

1986-87 was a very interesting winter with many near misses.

It's interesting that Monmouth County got 50 inches of snow that winter and we got half that or about 25 inches.  January 1987 had the standout snow event of that winter but there were several near misses like the one you mentioned in February.

 

Epic winter where I lived in central Massachusetts.  Jan 1987 was a record breaker for snowfall.  Several feet of snowpack by the end of the month.  As an 8th grader snow lover, I was in snow heaven.  That Feb storm that missed to our south initially gave us a blizzard warning on a Sunday afternoon, hearing that on my NOAA weather radio.  That one was a huge bust.  Only a dusting with wind while the Cape got hammered.

First it was kick the can, then it was suppression & next will be the sun angle.

If only weather forecasting was as 100% predictable as his posts

It's got to overcome some very low dewpoints too.  Probably a period of virga before the snow starts?

Yes, Captain.

Wow I agree with you

You know things are really desperate when you see MJO agree with Snowman.. Wow.  I screen shot that for my records.  

I enjoyed looking at the snow today.  It's all washed away soon.

Roads are getting snow covered again with this latest burst

How much did you pick up additionally today?  Got 2-3 inches more for a depth of 14-15 inches now

8-10" is my expectation here as well. Im sure a few spots throughout the area will hit 12" but it should be isolated. 

Here East of the river, I will be happy if we can achieve 6 at least.

I'm hedging toward a healthy 4-6 in the valley. The show is probably wrapping up by 12 am Sunday which doesn't leave a ton of time to pile it up, but should still be a nice appetizer for later in the month

Hoping closer to 6 or 7, but the valley usually ends up on the lower end of the number range

This graphic says I am getting 8"-12" but the Winter Storm Warning issued for Dutchess County says 4"-8". 

I am in Dutchess and I saw 6-10 here
