bikerman262 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Ripping on the Upper East Side on my way to work. Half block visibility at most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterweatherlover Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 3 minutes ago, eduggs said: This has been one of those winters where the stats say it's been a solid winter, but places to the east have consistently cashed in more on every event, which sours it just a touch. It would probably have been better not to check this forum or the radar. I can get that, it’s the comparison to others phenomenon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 29 minutes ago, MANDA said: Agree but this was way beyond that. Just a failure and not close to reality over the areas that got the most snow. The SPC HREF had the right idea somewhere between its mean and max. The globals and even some models like the RGEM struggle with such dynamic systems. I have often noticed that the best banding usually is just NW of where the globals and even some regionals show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About to head out to attempt to confirm; but winds are kicking up finally. Easily 10”+; will circle back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee59 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I would say about 15 inches here. Was not in the heavy bands as much as areas to my west and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the eastern-most models were too dry/east. Yes this will be analyzed differently depending on location. Seems the heaviest snow axis was higher and more widespread than the non American models had it but the western cutoff was sharper and further east than some runs. Neither is super surprising knowing how these storms tend to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncat Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just relentless here. Been under this heavy band for several hours now...had an additional 6" from when I shoveled few hours ago, so up to 20" now. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Guestimate of 12-14 inches here-snow has picked back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to run a poll asking something along the lines of would you rather get 9" and be in the jackpot, or 12" when Boston gets 20", and the results were heavily in favor of 9" and the jackpot. I appreciated the honesty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do see lots of 60-70 mph gusts across NYC and LI. So 80-85 mph gusts on Montauk are believable.https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/lsr/?by=wfo&sts=202602221435&ets=202602231435&settings=0110110 One second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikem81 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 8 minutes ago, nycsnow said: That band over Nassau is ripping Yes, I can confirm. Finally western Nassau into good banding. Finally confirmed good measurement by adding the 5pm measurement last night, cleared driveway then and had another 11 at 8am. So 16 inches here as of 8am in Garden City. Hoping we can get to 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowlover11 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Honestly thought we had more. Hard to measure but i’d say 13-14” Measured 13.7”, 14.3”, 13.6”, 14.5” Great winter here definitely not complaining. Back to moderate snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
