If you guys want to change the laws for how state and federal funding get released, by all means run for office. Complaining here isnt going to fix the fake problem. It has literally nothing to do with whatever asshole is in office at the time. Its about $, not boy who cried wolf fake emergencies. Blame the news you choose to watch that doesnt explain that properly.

 

for the 100th time. Please for the love of god dont make it 101.

Agreed, it has nothing to do with who is in office. It’s what you stated and it allows the government to make exceptions to the law to allow things to return to normal ASAP. If the news explained it properly it would not be nearly as ‘news’ worthy and people would not find it nearly as ‘exciting’.

Latest HRRR pretty good for the boundary area of eastern Orange, northern Rockland, southern Dutchess etc... keeps ticking ever so slightly southeast... we'll see... areas to our south seem to have mixed or changed over in concert with the warmer models.

Can’t I just complain to another bunch of anonymously unhinged lunatics with very specific niche interests that most other friends and family can’t comprehend without actually solving the problem?

Couple inches are down already with decent rates. Should be good for at least 4-5 by the end of the day

Anyone up here NW/Orange Co want to say when/if rain might mix in, and to what extent ?

 Given the HRRR, seems like NOAAs 2-4 for me NW of Middletown is going to be exceeded.

[gravitylover]

Half inch of dense frozen white stuff with layers of snowflakes! Yay. Well, better than white rain I guess *shrug*

[crossbowftw3]

Looking at possibly 3” but that back end is chugging. Will be done by sunset most likely.

[MANDA]

Raining here and 33 degrees.  Measured 1/2" at time it switched to sleet and rain about 10:45.

[Hitman]

Can’t say I’m disappointed for a change as I’m at 35k feet with another 4.5 hours before touchdown at jfk.  House is gonna be pretty chilly when we get in but I wisely laid a fire before we left.  I do love me some snow but the wife would be having a meltdown if we had to land into it and then drive home through it.

[crossbowftw3]

Went for a proper measure and 4” on the dot. About 1” an hour since it commenced at 7:15 this morning.

Don’t think we mix at all. Their forecast is gonna bust low for our area. A bit surprised they went conservative when most guidance was consistent with us receiving 5-6”

Yeah 4p or so should do it but with these rates we should get to atleast 5”

28 w/ mod snow

2.8” otg

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

1.7 inches at noon. So far so good. No mix yet. 
 

29.8 and moderate snow continues. 

[Irishmick9]

Just flipped to sleet. About 2 inches here in the valley at least, probably more up in Highland Lakes. 

[IrishRob17]

 

2.2” on the board as of 12:30pm, up to 30/27 with light snow continuing.

[gravitylover]

Ehh, my half inch was optimistic. lol Coupla tenths at best. The rain softened it right up  so it should melt off the warm ground pretty quickly right? I don't feel like pushing the shovel so I'm going with it.

[IrishRob17]

One of my sons works down in Chester, NY and just reported a flip to sleet there.

   Areas affected...Southern New York into New England

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 021834Z - 022230Z

   SUMMARY...Heavy snowfall rates between 1-2 inches per hour remain
   likely across southern New York into portions of New England this
   afternoon.

   DISCUSSION...Latest radar mosaics show the development of a snow
   band across portions of south/southeastern New York in response to
   strengthening frontogenesis between the 925-850 mb levels across the
   Mid-Atlantic/New England coast. Surface observations and web cams
   under this band are reporting visibility reductions between 1/4 to
   1/2 mile, which given weak winds across the region, are likely being
   driven primarily by moderate to heavy snowfall rates. Broad-scale
   ascent ahead of an approaching upper wave and more focused mesoscale
   ascent within the warm advection branch of an intensifying low-level
   cyclone (augmented by frontogenetical responses) will remain
   favorably phased through the remainder of the afternoon over the
   greater New England region. This will continue to favor widespread
   light/moderate precipitation and the maintenance and/or development
   of heavier precipitation bands. Consequently, snowfall rates between
   1-2 inches/hour will remain likely for areas north of the surface
   freezing line. Nearly isothermal temperature profiles from the
   surface to around 850 mb suggests that areas near the surface
   freezing line may continue to see rapid fluctuations in
   precipitation type between snow, sleet, and potentially freezing
   rain.

I have a bit of a mix now but it’s still more snow than sleet at the moment, up to 30/28.

[snywx]

Very similar here, just measured 3.1” on the board, we’ll see how much that compacts down. 4” on the ground though so I’ll go with that LOL

[Juliancolton]

Getting into some really heavy stuff now with a couple new inches in the last hour. Roads are pretty atrocious

I got into a dry slot down here, starting to fill in again now but I can also see the back edge of the precip approaching.
