MAG5035 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I think the ridiculous rates the NAM had over NYC last night have ended up over Long Island.. man oh man. Lightning strikes and 45-50dbz echoes that are starting to stretch into southeastern CT. Has to be a quite a sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 -SN - at least the NYC forum remains a to read. The forecast thread there is HECLOLS I think its mainly the northern Jersey folks haha. The "back" edge has stabilized and has pushed back west a bit keeping NYC proper in the decent stuff. Looks like some nice stuff as well down I-81 from BGM to your home turf in WB/Scranton in the now stalling "real" back edge of precip. The bit of an east shift at the last minute hurt our region. Really a near miss for what we were supposed to get. It just shows how much a fine line there was for folks like us and also the Philly thread. But man that hole in New Jersey would suck. It'll probably build back in eventually but totals are def gonna be hurt there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah MAG I can see that...NYC probably gets 9-12" but man those Jersey folk...guess it's kind of better to have low expectations and get none than think you're a lock for 10+ and then...

Rick G Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 We are near 5 inches here. I have been floored with a pain flair (I have a chronic pain problem). It is weather related....I have not benn outside yet. moderate snow still coming down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Wind is non-existent here as it is dead calm. We did pick up 5.25" as of 10:30PM and it's still snowing lightly, but steady at the moment. I think it's going to shut down soon so I'm guessing no more than a quarter inch more at best. Still, around 3:00PM, I was ready to throw in the towel as things looked a bit bleak with the main precip from the coastal pulling away to the east, and the leftover snow from the west looking meager at best.

whiteout Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Everyone needs to take a look at the 0Z GFS tonight. V-day looking promising and at like 192 hours woah!!!! Could be a nice stretch for us coming here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

north pgh Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Everyone needs to take a look at the 0Z GFS tonight. V-day looking promising and at like 192 hours woah!!!! Could be a nice stretch for us coming here. I know nothing will probably ever match March of 1993 but this looks similar to the setup coming out of the gulf. At this point I would take half of that storm. We need the other models to come around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a nice stretch for us coming here. MDT QPF is 1.30 for a 12 hour period around that time frame... about 1.57" overall after ~.70" for VD... would be lovely... just want to get to use my snow-blower more than once this winter lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Just WOW on both this storm up in NYC/LI/New England and the GFS forecast for our area later next week and weekend. Spoke to wx friend in Bergen County who said he was having 2"+/hr rates. Had 6.6" at 11pm so he's probably up to 9" now with another 6" likely which gets him up to 15". NYC should get over a foot. But, Long Island is where the unbelievable action has been. Reports of 5"/hr rates with a foot of snow in less than 3 hours! I've never seen anything like that ever. He thinks parts of LI will get over 40" of snow by morning, maybe even beating Boston. Watch for reports from LI. As for us, the late 13th/early V-Day storm drops 6 to 10" on all of us with over a foot down in DC. Then, that's followed up 3 days later (17th) with our big kahuna of 18"+ and then continued very cold afterwards. So much to look forward to in the next few weeks. BTW, Zach has been broadcasting from Torrington, CT with some incredible blizzard conditions of heavy, blowing snow. Check it out on his facebook page, Hazardous Weather Predictions. Finally, I got a whopping coating here from our 1-hour burst between 3:30 and 4:30 this afternoon. Whoopeeeeeee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PottercountyWXobserver Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 ya 192hr is pretty special, but lets see some consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Highlands Wx Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 ya 192hr is pretty special, but lets see some consistency. Actually the 6z,12z and 18z GFS Models all had some sort of coastal runner around next weekend. I know it most likely won't happen but it made me chuckle.
