T5403CG Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 So what can go wrong with this storm for the tristate from a meteorological point of view.Phases later than depicted... pushes heavy snows east...That is the only thing I would be worried about ..At this point nothing like that is being depicted... but that could change... although not likely...

North and West Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Feb 1983 for meMy thought in posing this question is could this push into the question where normal people know about the storm just from mentioning it?

T5403CG Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 one thing-if you end up near a band but not in it-you can get skunked from subsidence around the band.Yep, the Boxer Day storm for most of Long Island was an experience of looking at the radar and seeing the mega band over Jersey just sit and dump snow as we experienced light to moderate...24+ in those parts while we got 12-15"...Those are hard to sit through ...Sent from my motorola edge 2024 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathstar9 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Kinda crazy modeling is showing a 1048 high north of WI/MI. Similar position and strength to the Feb 1978 high. Low though is going to be around 968 vs 984 in 1978. Speaks to the incredible gradient this storm will have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our oldest son was 16 years old and he woke us up at 2 am that night, saying "it's so cool! I want to go out and play in it!!" We put on the floodlights and you could not see anything more than a few inches from our back windows. We told him only if he was attached to the house with a chain lol. Somewhat scary. There was so much drifting that our garage was completely buried from the roof to the driveway, no way out with a vehicle. We also discovered a small pile of snow inside our attic which had somehow been blown in by the wind through a vent. I carried it into a bathtub with a shovel and it melted. Haven't seen anything like the 96 storm in my area before or since. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
