jm1220 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Not going to make it to the boardwalk, not for a while anyway. The walks are all impassable and things too fierce. We have to be gusting to around 50. The falling snow is still in a lull compared to before but the blowing component makes visibility horrendous anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guidance is still pretty high only showing 6-7 for NYC. I'd be surprised if they were not at least 1-2 at the warmest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said it's still pretty much dumping here Yeah we won't get the higher amounts but we will do alright. I think we may get to 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in Tarrytown. Started out the morning with barely an inch. Now at least 3"-4" with low visibility and heavy snow. Can't measure the wind gusts, but just from the sound and frequency ... hard to believe that we're not experiencing blizzard or near blizzard conditions and hard to believe that we're not getting it much worse than expected.

Wetbulbs88 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Impossible to say how much has fallen here. Drifts are huge, wind erosion by the Hudson revealed the grass. We have to be approaching 10" I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guesstimate 3" but trying to get anything close to an accurate measurement is a major fool's errand with all the blowing and drifting. There was already snow on the ground so I'm not sure what the protocol is supposed to be in cases like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Band in southern NJ is starting to pivot to the east again. I think we've seen the western extent of the ridiculous heavy snow for our area. It should stabilize for a time and then drift back east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parts of my backyard have 2 foot drifts, parts are almost bare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
