The GFS would be ideal for most of us in here

Someone in rockland/westchester is having their last day without severe back pain today.

Currently 9/-10. Shot out a question to DonSoutherland regarding start times tomorrow with the cold dry air in place. It might take a little more time for the snow to reach the surface to what the models are showing. It depends on when the column saturates enough. Don agreed that it is possible. 
it has happened before, so we’ll see how it unfolds.

Since the moisture is pushing all the way past Albany and into Adirondacks eventually I'm not as concerned as I normally would be with an airmass this cold and dry in place.

Will be interesting to see how far the sleet will get into our area.

That wasn’t a concern of mine with this type of system, unlike 2016 when I recorded a whopping .4

[White Gorilla]

That was horrible up here watching from the sidelines. Thank God not the case this time.

Am I the only one that doesn't visit the board as much once we know it's coming? Once it starts I'll likely visit more often but just enjoying the moment and the weenies that come out of the woodwork just push me away. 

[White Gorilla]

Guilty weenie here and I am free to chime in whenever I want.

[IrishRob17]

And people talking about mixing at 3pm. Not up here. 

[White Gorilla]

I really should participate more here snow or not as I have been a passionate all around weather fan since childhood. This storm reminds me a bit of March 2017.

With these events it’s really shows how different it is up here in comparison to areas in & around NYC. In the grand scheme of things, we aren’t that far lol but weather wise we might as well live on the tug hill lol

If you want to see some interesting plowing videos check out Tug Hill Snow Chasers on Facebook.

My area seems to be close to where the transition could reach (discounting the NAM), but it should also be poundtown for a while before then. A solid 12+ is what I’m thinking for just west of MMU.

Nemo?

my plan is to drive home around 2pm Monday.  Thinking the roads should be relatively driveable by then, question mark

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

Not that I depend on the weather channel app for accuracy, but it is kind of cool to look at it this morning and see 22 inches of snow expected in the next 24 hours. Hope for once it's right.

I find myself drawn into it at times and inevitably getting drawn into some kind of minor confrontation with someone or other from Central, New Jersey or the jersey shore, speaking like they are representative of the entire forum. I usually come to my senses, then and walk away.

 

It's best to just realize there's real weather going on out there. Why do I care that someone from Raritan is complaining that we, as in everyone, have not seen 6 inches of snow in the last 10 years.

By that you mean 4/10 of an inch liquid equivalent, correct? Which had to equal 6 inches of snow? Or did you actually just get 4/10 of an inch of snow

I ended up getting 12 inches from that storm as I'm about 15 miles south of you most of it coming when I was lucky enough to have one of those heavy bands south of us rotate over Highland Mills area for two or three hours. I remember even 6 miles north of me only ended up with 6 inches. That was such a frustrating cut off from that storm, while the city and NNJ got 30 inches.

I have people that have lived up here as long as I have that will comment on the 5° difference between here and New York City. I'll usually just roll my eyes slightly. if I know them well enough, I will say something like yes maybe 5° during the daytime but 15 to 20° during most nights. That's why the winter month averages are 10° colder here.
 

Even educated people don't get it.

I apologize for the libertybell like responses this morning.

I certainly didn't get .40 in liquid, it was a total of .4 inches of snow, total, period, end of story. That sucked cause I knew not that far away was rather different. I didn't even have to shovel. Today, I'll need to shovel with snow falling and 7 degrees out there. 

[gravitylover]

First plow just went by. Time to go move the heavy stuff  

5/2/NE3/SN+

[snywx]

This stuff isn't snow lol.. Its at least 20:1 right now 

[Hitman]

Minus 8f up here.  The notion that inland this was going to be anything other than high ratio snow is nuts.

Thank you bro! Im used to these storms on my bday lol. it loves to snow on 1/25

[gravitylover]

Fluff!! If all snow was like this I'd even shovel the neighbors driveways 

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

5.9°, heavy snow, 3.2 inches as of 9 AM. I'll take another measurement at 10 AM. This band has to be at least 2 in./h now maybe three, especially at these temps, pure fluff out there.

Happy birthday fellow Yankee fan. This beats socks, underwear or any other useless birthday gift.
