[cannoliman42]

Seems to be all sleet here now in western Brooklyn. Haven’t heard sleet like this a long time.

[Superstorm]

Another huge lull

gone are the days where long island was the worst place for snow compared to the city.. due to ocean breeze bringing in milder air..

The North Shore of L.I. always does well compared to the city especially in Suffolk.

Went from basically all sleet. To heavy snow last 5 minutes. 17.0°

Just to their northeast it's snow so they might flip back over shortly.

Many of those areas reporting sleet flipped back to snow already, including out near Port Jervis. All snow here still.

This is the nyc metro area discussion forum. Not the mount holly discussion. I am specifically discussing how just because the nam nailed one area and completely failed in another doesnt mean its worth any more weight than another model that failed here and nailed down there. That argument literally makes no sense and its just pessimistic nonsense by people who are (rightfully) upset ahout their snow not happening.

Did up Upton get it right

Dude. We are discussing the model, not the forecasters lol.

Prime time now for Nassau and Suffolk. Heavy snow and low 20s. Radar looks excellent. 

approaching 3” 

[Prue11]

Really not all that impressed with so far here central Suffolk. The fist band was fun now it’s eh. Doubt we see over 6-7” which was a possibility 

[Snowlover11]

Mostly sleet now.

So the sleet line is definitely dropping south according to coefficient. Midtown Manhattan could be back to all snow soon.

OK according to Coefficient Manhattan should be back to all snow.

radar looks spotty, don't like it one bit. should be done by ~11PM here. in western jersey.

greatest threat is ice.

[TJW014]

Plow trucks here think they can plow 1/4" of sleet. They're just making things worse for everyone

[MJO812]

Snow and sleet

Hoping for a few inches. Im not sure anymore. It was a red flag once the euro and gfs went northward with the 850 line.

I still have hope but its fading. O well I have lost sleep this week. Happens.

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

3.5 inches in yorktown, these dark green/light yellow are 1 inch/hour on the nose, the yellow blobs are 2 inch/hour.

afterwards, on-and-off precip should persist overnight.

Don't give up yet. Should still see a few inches of mixed precip.

I PROMISE you that you will see many many more impressive snowstorms and epic winters.

Either crews got too excited, or the budget this year was massive (allocating that much money to winter weather needs to be justified one way or another)

[Winterweatherlover]

sleet/snow mix in southern Yonkers

[rickymortyx]
