danstorm Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Heaviest snow of the event right not. Heavy snow One of the most ferocious storms I can remember... just a doozy out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ok, so I turned out all the lights and went to bed. Then I got back up. The wind rattling the windows was more than I could take. It is down to 13 here (actually 12 and change) and snowing hard. The blizzard thing might work out yet as the wind is howling and the air has that foggy blizzard look with very low viz. We only had 3" as of midnight, but the tracks that I made as of about 12:30 were obliterated in less than an hour. Wouldn't surprise me if we've been collecting an inch an hour since...but not going to measure. I will try to stay in bed this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jims Videos Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Crazy snow outside right now in wall combined with the wind, and yeah the arctic air reached here. I got readings in the front yard from 6 (less than I measured at 1am) to 8. So I think were are around 7ish. And DUMPINGz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Heaviest snow of the night - looking at the radar, we're under a stripe of 25-30 DBZ within the larger band of 20-25 DBZ snow. It's simply pouring snow right now with visibility of about 3/16 of a mile. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 It's really hard to measure here-I might have 4", might have 6". The winds are kicking up more and more and causing more drifting. Such an awesome scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpsonsbuff Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'll take a stab and say the zookeepers might be underestimating... Just based on KEWR and other measurements around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The falling snow is getting heavier by the minute here-hopefully this is the inverted trough and this lingers for a few hours. Short range models have suggested this the last several runs-if so we're in for some fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 12.9 in Lynbrook Down to 14 in Long Beach. Dropping like a rock. We might be single digits by dawn, 10 might not be cold enough. The cold did overperform north of us and it's headed our way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
