donsutherland1 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 There was a snow shower in the Bronx a short time ago. The streets became wet, but there was no accumulation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJwx85 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 The surface temperatures are going to be warm, but soundings indicate that wet bulb could be right around freezing. As @purduewx80 indicated, we're a bit unstable. The HRRR wants to bring through a low topped squall line between 18z and 21z. You can see some snow starting to breakout on radar over NE PA. Really not sure why the NAM has been so consistently North. Even the GFS is further South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toekneeweather Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Next weekend looks good for a big storm. The midweek system disappeared unfortunately.

NorthShoreWx Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Started as light sleet here, mixed with rain, then a snow sleet mix. Was mostly light rain with a few ice pellets 15 minutes ago, now snow/sleet rain/mix. Your basic wet cold afternoon that can't make up its mind.

Juliancolton Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 It's been snow showering here all day, also with no accumulation. Just lots of puddles and wet sidewalks to kill enthusiasm for the many Christmas parades tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it isn’t you can’t record a trace of snow if there are twenty flurries that don’t even hit the ground. You actually need more like a snow shower, we already went through this from national weather service Snow often melts as it lands. If snow continually melts as it lands, and the accumulation never reaches 0.1 inches on your measuring surface, snowfall should be recorded as a trace (T) and record in your remarks that the "snow melted as it landed 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 The mean temperature for New York City during November was 44.4° (3.3° below normal). November 2018 was the coldest November since 2012. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there are flurries flying around and they melt as they hit the ground, a trace should be recorded according to this criteria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to wet the ground don’t you see it on the text that national weather service states. Today we had a trace of frozen stuff but longbeachsurf was talking about a few snow flurries that is not a trace. Flakes flying around and never really wetting the ground is not a trace. Maybe I’m wrong but I can picture a trace basically some white rain and boom it’s a trace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong too, just how I'm seeing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
