NorthShoreWx Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 1 hour ago, jm1220 said: The map in much of Nassau and W Suffolk is low. Every recent report from this area was over 12” and it shows 8-12”. It's "interpolated" data and only uses official NWS measurements. So all of western Suffolk County is represented by ISP which reported 11" and central Suffolk is represented by Upton which reported 14". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Turkey Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Who was it in the forecast thread that said if people were looking for 27" they were going to be disappointed? Whoops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Boston only ended with 1-2”. Yikes. Central Park about 4” above them for the winter now. Snow/drizzle here, temp 33. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Just saw Hicksville with the highest Nassau total at 17.6". Another yikes. I'd have to say that's a little high but the snow has compacted a good bit and has more water because of the light drizzle so who knows. Next door there's a lowball 9.7" in Plainview.

crossbowftw3 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 non-accumulating snow now 29/27. another inch or so fell in the last few hours so final total probably ends at around 23".

tamarack Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 6 hours ago, IrishRob17 said: You’re a trusted wealth of knowledge here, please see my post above from the NW thread, would you record the 17.7 or the 19.5 for the event? I think there's a data point missing. You had 13.6 on the "24-hour board" but did you take two measurements during that time that added up to 15"+? If so, I'd go with the 19.5. I've been measuring temp/precip at 9 PM since moving to northern Maine on 1/1/76 as my 5 AM wake-up precluded midnight obs. Joining cocorahs in 2009 automatically meant 2 obs (at least) daily as I didn't care to corrupt 30+ years of data by measuring only at 7 AM. As for knowledge, I say that while I may know a lot, at least 1/3 of it is flat-out wrong and I don't know which third. One of my favorite sayings, that dates back to the Lincoln administration, is: "It ain't so much people being ignorant; it's them knowing things that ain't so."

Yeah, there were a couple other posts I didn’t quote. Long story short I had one board I only cleared once in 24 hours and another board that I cleared “close to” every 6 hours (I wasn’t getting up in the middle of the night to clear it and I was an hour late on one clearing yesterday afternoon). It was just a little experiment for me. The total of the board I cleared once a day was 17.7” and that’s the total going into my records. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussexcountyobs Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Picked up about 1.25" today with the steady light snow that hasn't stopped for one minute all day today. Now with sun down and temps below freezing it is sticking to street which was salted. From 11 am to 3pm it wasn't sticking to street. 28° Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikem81 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Has been snowing lightly here since around noon with some breaks. Prob got another inch this afternoon with all the light snow for a storm total of 15-16 inches. Really cant complain about that even with those crazy totals to the NW of the metro.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Boston Logan is basically our version of jfk right on the water. That is one insane cutoff though can’t think of too many storms with that sharp of a cutoff say between jfk and cpk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthShoreWx Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 About a half inch so far from the current snow shower. 30F (Smithtown) I was out and about and the roads are snow covered and slippery. I was suprised how eager the anti-lock brakes were to engage and I was babying them. Lesson is...the ground was frozen before; 12 hours at 33 or 34 isn't going to keep things liquid on the roads once the sun goes down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
