NWS responded as follows: “The 0.15" was an automated measurement determined to be erroneous, likely from snowmelt getting into the gauge. A trace of snow was reported by our Park observers after 1 pm, and the storm total for the event is 19.7.”
-
1.92
-
I sent an email too. It’s just unacceptable in my opinion but oh well.
-
Yea CPK is rarely the winner in any storm but for moderate to large ones, it is also very rarely the loser as it sort of "benefits" from both east and west leaning BM storms. That being said, CPK recorded 0.15 of precipitation from 1-4PM, why wasn't that counted as snow? It's things like that which frustrate me.
-
Would be interesting to see their total precip to compare to CPK.
-
TF Green Airport (Providence) just reported 37.9 and its still snowing, insane!
-
See now that's ridiculous. If there was 0.15 inches of precipitation since 1PM (according to their official obs), it should have translated into approx. 1.5". Same thing happened with the January storm.
-
They definitely should but if they don't frequently measure it would be lost already due to compaction.
-
Yes I was referring to NYC schools specifically as they don't close nearly as often or for as long duration as suburban schools.
-
Oh wow a week?! That’s nuts. My memory goes back to the 90s so I didn’t know that!
-
I can’t remember NYC ever closing schools for two days in a row for snow
-
No doubt. This winter has included: - a moderate storm in December (~5?) - a significant storm in January (11”) - unrelenting cold that allowed the snowpack to linger for weeks Jan into Feb - a HECS in February (20”) - seasonal total more than 10” above average Clearly an “A” winter

I think one of the NAM runs showed 40 for a few spots in central/coastal NJ.
-
Per radar, it doesn't seem that CPK/UWS area is under a weenie band but it's still coming down nicely nonetheless. Def possible we hit 20.
-
Yea it’s been quite heavy especially for the past 90 mins, should be in that range
-
Been sitting in a nice weenie band here in the UWS for nearly an hour, CPK may just get to 20 or even higher at this rate
-
Snowman focusing on the least snowy models is par for the course.
-
Yea you’re right about the euro, still pretty late though!
-
Yea and what was shocking was that they were both low balling even as the storm was underway, crazy.
-
This is pretty awesome considering CPK didn’t cash as much with the death bands
-
Heavier band moving into Brooklyn, should reach CPK in 20 or so
-
Snowing hard in the UWS, add the wind and visibility already pretty bad
-
Not by much, this is early stuff. The NWS said things get going later this afternoon.
-
Snowman makes an appearance only to put his cards on one of the least snowy models? Not much of a surprise there.
-
I think this is the first time NYC cracked 30 in a model run for this storm. Suffice to say this is quite a rare treat (even if it’s overdone).
