NycStormChaser Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Don't need one. It won't last more than 10-12 minutes. It didn't here.The duration of a snow squall doesn't dictate if a warning is needed. Reduced visibility even for 5 minutes could be an issue.

David-LI Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Storm Tracker 4 is possibly the best free live Doppler radar in the region. Great to track the squall line. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/weather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The warning is primarily for travel. These are the typical conditions where you wonder how 50+ cars managed to pile up in a half inch of snow. It only takes a few moments.

purduewx80 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 The orientation of the line may allow it to train for more than 10 min for the Newark area, SI, Brooklyn and points south - could see 1-2" in a narrow corridor somewhere in there. Either way, 10 min of whiteout conditions is enough to put roads and the local airports at a stand still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about the portion of the squall circled here. There will be a longer duration of snow in a narrow corridor due to orientation of the line and cell motion being similar.

SnowFreak69 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Is the squall bending? Looking at the Radar it looks as if the squall is legit bending right around the City and then run parallel. Guess that's why the warning was extended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
