It was around 38F when the precip began with that historic storm on a similar track. I think it was a fair amount of rain before it flipped? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 IMO, the major blizzard remains on track. My thinking of 16"-22" in the City and nearby areas and 18"-24" in parts of Long Island and central NJ with locally higher amounts is unchanged. That the NAM has come to Earth doesn't change things. Were the storm not expect to develop as explosively as expected and were it not to approach or surpass 970 mb, I'd be thinking 12"-18" based on a preponderance of the guidance. However, explosively deepening and super intense storms have very efficient and powerful dynamics that maximize snowfall. Thus, it makes sense to add about a third to the figures one would normally expect. One saw such a case during February 11-12, 2006. The blizzard's dynamics outran the models and the forecasts. What had been expected to be about a foot of snow in NYC wound up being 26.9". Forecast amounts were increased several times when the blizzard was underway. So, at least for now, I'm quite comfortable with my amounts listed above. 11 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are actually 68, 10 inch snow storms in New York City since they started keeping records in 1870. Sarcus was listing just a more current list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNJSnowman Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Kind of surprised at the quantity of rain here in central nj. Seems like we’ve had about 1/4” already and probably hours more till the temp drops and the white rain begins. not sure if that’s good (more moisture than expected) or bad (more of the moisture is being wasted) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
