No one should EVER say anymore that it can't snow because it was such and such hot degrees the day before or the morning of! 

[wasnow215]

It hit 92° degrees at 23120 yesterday.. Incredible

One  of the  biggest weather turnarounds  i have ever seen. And tomorrow  we are going to have a warm-up with south winds  15-25, lol

Wakefield JUST NOW put out a statement. Not a peep until now. Poor job. Models were very consistent inside of 36 hours.

Has to be highest temp the day before and morning of before snow ever in this whole area.

[ldub23]

Big flakes  here  now

[wasnow215]

ALSO, not saying they have no value but 10:1 and Kuchera models generally not good maps to go by. Snowdepth maps nailed it again!

Agreed. I remember lots of 70 degrees growing up in Hampton Roads with rain to snow from a frontal passage, but never this drastic. Pretty cool.

I have to be close to 1/2" here in Tuckahoe.  While we did not get a blockbuster this winter, events early in December, long impact duration event in January and close it out with a March snow.  I have to give this winter, based on expectations going in, a solid B.
