Good on ya.

Thank you.

 

[weatherpruf]

Yup. This was the project a group of us were given for the spring semester. I primarily would like to be focusing on barrier island ecology in the future.

Good luck. We need people like that.

The upcoming snowstorm will likely join a relatively small number of storms that brought 6" or more to all of the following cities: Baltimore, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC. Many of those prior storms were epic storms. The list since 1950 is below.

In short, not only will this storm likely be New York City's biggest snowstorm in nearly four or five years, it could be a really special event, too.

There’s going to a be a lot of pancaking on Sunday afternoon as the mix line advances.

I mean as of right now sleet is likely to cut down on totals for a large chunk of the subforum no matter what some of our posters say. 

[EastonSN+]

FWIW TWC said 12 to 18 and any brief mixing will not affect snow totals.

[Rjay]

Still a nice storm.  Been a crappy few years.

Yeah, but it will have been well forecasted.

They're going with the nws.  That's fine and I don't have any issue with that.  I kind of like the bold call from the nws.  I definitely disagree with them right now though but what do I know.

He's getting so much crap for being disappointed.  I kinda feel the way he does. I loved being on the northern fringe of this.  That was a great spot for us.  Is he being a bit excessive with it?  Sure but everyone's reactions to him are worse imo.

Eh idk some of his personal attack posts that got deleted were worse.

Decades? The record-setting January 22-23, 2016 blizzard was just over 10 years ago. The long-duration January 31-February 4, 2021 storm that brought 17.4" to NYC was just under 5 years ago. The Post would do well to consult weather information before writing its headlines.

Journalism is DEAD.  Died a long time ago.

I think he had 2 in this sub.  Way more reactions have been deleted than supposed attacks.

Well I personally think the sleet is overdone except on the South shore of LI and the Jersey shore.

You are definitely entitled to your call.

Hasn’t the GFS been awful all winter?

Yes....when it's bad for us we throw it out, but when it's good for us we like to take it verbatim  

[SnowGoose69]

Its wild how many Mets are going to miss this event because they'll be in Houston for AMS

My gut is telling me that we get 10" out here plus a bunch of sleet. All depends on the secondary. If it pops early and south like the GFS has it, we will get 18"...

Easily 10”

I wonder why?  

[SnoSki14]

Sleet will happen, not much you can do but you'll get the wall of snow no matter what. 

At least we're not pulling our hair out over whether we'll get a near miss from a coastal. 

It doesn't get more brutal than missing a 1-2' storm by 50 miles.
