1/23-24/16 #1 All Time KNYC Snowfall-please add Obs, Accums, Pics

[RUNNAWAYICEBERG]

Trust me, I want to.  However, I am considered an "essential state employee"   so I have to report to work.  

 

Going to be tough man, meso models dont move this out until tonight. 

[IntenseBlizzard2014]

Yeah. The rates are insane. Must be at least 3"/HR. I can barely see anything with the super low visibility.

[tdp146]

Ripping

Getting crushed. Trying to take first measurement. Averaging about 9.5.

[WintersGrasp]

WOW interior NNJ

[IsentropicLift]

An additional 20-30" in spots if the NAM verifies

[EasternLI]

Wow, just wow. Getting hard to see the house across the street. Vis couple hundred feet at this point. Whiteout when the wind gusts.

 

 

[IsentropicLift]

Someone's going to break 36"

[SnoSki14]

According to the 12NAM the heaviest is over by around 3PM but there will be embedded heavier rates within the deformation banding this evening and tonight.

Someone might already be near 20" by the time the heaviest snows are over and then they'll be plenty more to come.

[danstorm]

Vis probably 400 ft in this crazy Essex co band that is pivoting over me.

7 in front yard, 10 in the back, working a nice 18" drift along the car.

[SnowBlitzkrieg]

Cantore just said bands with 3 inch an hour rates coming to LI in the next hour

[Rittenhouse]

This has a decent shot to be the biggest snowfall in NYC history.

 

Records to beat:

- 26.9" (total snowfall)

- 24.1" (daily snowfall)

[dmillz25]

Went out to measure. About 9 inches here

[NYR99]

Going to be tough man, meso models dont move this out until tonight. 

Yeah that is what I was afraid of.  If things get bad and the railroad shuts down, sometimes we are allowed just to report to our home terminal, so that won't be as bad.  I hope the snow keeps on piling up!  Go NAM go!

[IsentropicLift]

This is the most snow IMBY since PD2.

[IsentropicLift]

In all seriousness it's life threatening to be on the roads currently.

[Windman18]

Some of you guys will pass dc at this rate. Cantore measured 15" in dc.

[CoastalWx]

Vis probably 400 ft in this crazy Essex co band that is pivoting over me.

7 in front yard, 10 in the back, working a nice 18" drift along the car.

Sweet man. Glad you got it! The hints were there for sure.
