Rjay Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 We had 6 - 10 inches of snow across the region last March 5. What was it's name? The blizzard of 2015 late last January that disappointed folks west of LI was nonetheless memorable. But I suppose if it wasn't called Nemo we'd all forget it. While they are going through Roman names they should use some of these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMGu-55sKJs The only winter storm names I remember are Nemo and Juno. I have no idea what the blizzard we had in January was named. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjay Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Update: A second tortured snowflake has been sighted floating past the snow light, It was screaming, but it was difficult to hear its tiny little voice. Something about sun angle. Best obs of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjay Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The NWS had a very tough forecast to make. They didn't want people being off guard if we did end up picking accumulating snow which would cause hazardous travel. The next person to bash the NWS will get a time out.

NYCGreg Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The period was the 5th thru the 20th . We have 6 so far inside this period down in CNJ . The N shore of Long Island received 15. Many outside NYC probably go to 0 this weekend. We have a shot at a day 7 storm. If you miss dem the breaks kid. PB: you are one of the best posters on here; however, when most of the region has missed on virtually every storm during this time period, it's hard to consider this period a success. Yes, it was a success on LI. Of course, I'm still ok with it all, as the blizzard was enough to satisfy me, even if we don't get more storms.

I think when some people hear favorable pattern they think blizzard so if the whole area doesn't cash in and get slammed they feel cheated somehow.

Now if the 5th thru the 20 th turned out sunny and mild I would say wow a sht forecast . CNJ and LI have done well . In NINO years the coast is always wetter . - EPO likes to force the cold to the coast . It should not be a surprise to those N and W that the bigger precip anomalies are on the coast . The guidance was screaming that since SEPT . But there were and still are several chances to produce .. Will they all ? No .. Will some miss all ? Probably I can only give you my free opinion , so take it at face value . Most go to 0 this weekend and there is a D7 storm before we turn warm again for a week . However I can not tell you what D 7 is yet . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a very small section of this subforum. You are correct, this period is not over yet. But I'm not going to get my hopes up for a D7 storm.

nyblizz44 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I suppose it's all relative. I think close to 30" area wide, more on Long Island is pretty good thus far. Not just LI. We, in Queens, are doing very well near JFK 37 inches. No complaints here. In a way its the best of both of boh worlds: warmth and snow. Im fine with that and frankly dont know anyone who enjoys highs in the teens. Yes, exciting to maybe hit 0 but so long as it is a short spell like whats comin up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Definitely doing well on Long Island. 10" followed by a 3.5" refresher. Except for last night. We had .1" what a terrible forecast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wthrmn654 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 12z navgem and gfs wanna develop a low south of long island for Saturday. Ecmwf says no way with the low power far south Cmc has a low as well, further south though just missing us. Similar to ecmwf. Jma has the low as well,further west this run though. 32km nam is further north, with snows just scrapping montauk. 12km nam further north as well, lower pressure, has snow in the area,leaving to much if anything though. 4km nam doesn't go far enough. Gefs has a low, further north, looks to affect mainly Suffolk county. Putting roughly 0.15-0.20 using the 24HR. Precipitation accumulations. The ensemble looks too be a bit north/west. At hour 72, almost looks like it tries to place a low by cape cod, but not 100% if that's what it means. Looking at the geps, for some reason unable to look at the last 2 00z runs, hasn't loaded for some reason. But I'm pretty sure its east a bit. Ensemble is east as well.

JerseyWx Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I'm glad these threats for the coastal and inverted trough are done with. Yesterday morning and this morning each had a light sugar coating, amounting to .25" total if I'm lucky. Didn't even bother logging it in the book. This cold snap is interesting, but after that hopefully the brutal cold stays away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
