NYC is so cooked they're talking about ocean effect snow

That’s a big dry slot. Let’s see if precip from Scranton can make it to nyc

Looks like we finally got some bands of precip to fill in. Though it’s still weirdly convective like with narrow bands.

         Fascinating late evening radar on Long Island, with synoptic snow moving west-northwest to east-southeast, while ocean-effect snow streams from south to north across Long Island.

Wonder if the lake effect may help lower Manhattan and Long Island not bust as horribly as upper manhattan.

That said I think that the current band orientation may save myself and nyc from a proper all out failure of less than 3in to hitting the extreme low end range of conservative forecasters.

4.3 in NYC. Over 9 in some of the Northern suburbs.

There actually was ocean effect snow for parts of LI. That’s a real thing. As for nyc, Central Park recorded 4.3”. On the lower end of what they expected but not a total catastrophe.

Roads seem fine but everything else is pretty icy IMBY. Deck/grass is all ice. Poor dogs were sliding their way out to the yard this morning

This was really moisture starved for our area. Most stations reporting less than .10.  Ended up being largely a non issue for most.
