How much precip do we piss away before it’s cold enough to stick? Plus whatever is falling now is nowhere near 10:1. 

We knew that it was gonna be white rain until late afternoon. 

[Astoriaweather]

Light snow starting to be whipped around pretty good by the wind in Astoria Queens. I think we are on the board with a coating of snow on the ground, excluding streets and sidewalks.

Where is the low now? Because to my untrained eye, and lack of knowledge, it looks like a lot is racing due ENE and not NE

Holy shit this thread got depressing. We are still on track for double digit snowfall. White rain was expected early on. Everything is currently on track.

[Snowman92]

Back in south brooklyn now, the snow flakes are fighting their way in. Id say its a 50/50 right now. When the heavier precip moves by it is snow.

[MJO812]

Good point

[Northof78]

Moderate snow now, large flakes, much more substantial rates/QPF than I thought this early...unfortunately nothing sticking yet.

I'll be glued to my TV.

I trust this gentleman, implicitly. Always has well explained rationale, and not just from model watching.

This happens every-time. I wasn't expecting to even see steady snowflakes until 2-3 PM. Been going since 10 AM. (Albeit white rain)

Lightly snowing @ 36f in SW Suffolk County...

Started as snow... no rain... surprised given other observations...

Hoping for the best... hope we get 15+...

Good luck all...

Seems like snow totals are going to end up being a 25-50 mile west shifted Jan 2018.  Hopefully winds can match.

That sounds right. That was a colder storm with the same kind of winds.  I like this thought.

because some of the 12Z guidance got depressing - I don't think some models have a handle on this anymore

If you get depressed by a snowfall algorithm you shouldnt be here. I mean that sincerely.  

[Mail Man]

It’s like a 50 50 mix here

[EW9616]

Steady snow now in NE Nassau. Not sticking

[sussexcountyobs]

I'm still thinking 12-18" for NE Sussex county. Locally higher in spots.

Storms don’t happen unless weenies see the snow maps.

LOL! Great point. Maybe I should have stayed in a Holiday Inn last night. 
 

Now where’s my rock? I need to go back under it

Best part for is that I have reached my 4 post limit!

Miller A doing Miller A things.  Nobody told this storm it wasn’t to go east.  The biggest storms and biggest busts tend to be Miller As.  Do not sleep on the east trend.  Nor should you discount banding.  Or subsidence.  Surprises with these abound.  Nothing to be done except watch the cinema and dig or sweep whatever you get.

Unfortunately these storms due to tend to tick east at the last second. I guess NJ coast and LI due for a biggie. Still a nice storm for all though and hopefully some banding to the NW. 

Except for when they tick west at the last second.  You get an uncomfortable feeling remembering 2015, I get one remembering 2010 and 2016.

Been snowing lightly at NY La Guardia International Airport since 8am this morning.

Kinda odd seeing route 1&9 in north bergen, nj so empty before. It's usually like a NASCAR street course lol

 

Snow has been light at times but has really picked up in intensity the last 5 minutes.  Nothing is sticking.

Depends how far NW you are.

There is a temperature/snowfall rate equation that needs to be balanced here. Especially in daytime. Especially for those of us with snow still on the ground

Maybe. You and I could wind up lower end.  The rain isn’t the issue for us.
