Storm potential January 17th-18th

[Blizzardo]

Death band increasing in size! 

[nycwinter]

accuweather keeps saying nothing will accumulate in the city lol

[JonClaw]

Heaviest snowfall I've seen in years!

[Bxstormwatcher360]

Everything white and still snowing at a moderate clip. It feels much colder then earlier too. 

[Krs4Lfe]

Everything is nice and covered here in Bayside. Especially in the hilly part. Central Park might actually measure some snowfall if this keeps up. Looks like this is a quick mover though.

Death band FTW! All snow!

Wish I was there.  Did we have "death band" in the list that was started for all the terms used here to describe heavy snow?  That's a good one I think we missed.  Adding it to the list..

Given they probably will measure at 1pm a half inch or slightly over.

That was my bet. .5-.6"

[winterwx21]

After seeing the Euro I'm guessing we'll be put under a WWA for 2 to 4 inches tomorrow. This is turning out to be a beautiful snowy weekend! 

[wxman]

2.25" down with moderate snow. Temp 30.6

[MJO812]

Wow sticking here in brooklyn. Amazing.

[Krs4Lfe]

Heaviest snowfall rates I've seen since 1/29/22 12" blizzard. In north Queens, we were too far north from that weenie band on 2/17/24, where the southern boroughs got 6-8." And the 2/12/24 storm, we had 3-5" across the boroughs, but it wasn't this heavy.

I'd tell you to go outside and touch grass but there's snow covering it.

Yup eduggs was all over it. .09le 32* at the park with moderate snow. They will miss the next inch when they measure again at 7pm

[WeatherGeek2025]

nice storm here probably around 1.5 inches

[SnoSki14]

It's dumping right now. We definitely got what PA should have gotten 

[weathermedic]

34 and slushy accumulations on streets and sidewalks in southern Brooklyn

[RU848789]

Up to 1.75" - huge overperformer and still snowing moderately at 32F; guessing we'll hit at least 2.5" judging by the radar.

Also, every 12Z model is now snowy, so expecting a general 2-4" for the region with an upside of 3-6" possible (lowest amounts well NW of 95 and far SENJ). Expect advisories to go up shortly. No updated NWS maps yet. Lee Goldberg and the NYC mets can suck it, lol.
