36/31 here with nothing more than a few sprinkles over the past hour.  9" of snow at the stake.  It's hard to put all of the declarations that winter is gone in context with the view out the window a couple of hours ago with light snow and sleet falling:

Given the modeled warmth a week from that now  that will all be gone

Most likely yes, and definitely by June, but it's still winter out there today.

Post a photo!

 

Heh, I didn't take any, was too busy ogling it and standing there listening to it thump on my head I also can't figure out how to delete years old pics so I can post new ones.

How much has it accumulated?  We're switched over for the duration down here, but can still live vicariously.

 

Looks like mix line is up near 84 east of the river on dual pol.

BDR has 15 for the Jan 96 storm.  Ridiculous.  Photos suggest 20-25 at least

Got pretty heavy for a bit and picked up a very quick inch or so on the colder parts of my driveway and cartops, etc. Eventually started to stick on the road too, was just out, roads are not great.

Many places in N Queens/Nassau are reporting 32, had friends check though and they told me they are not seeing any freezing on the trees or any surfaces

probably slightly over 32 then

[IrishRob17]

29° with huge snowflakes again. 

[ForestHillWx]

It’s raining now, at 32. Definitely has that look on the pines/brush branches.

I measured 1.8 right after it ended. It was pretty amazing watching it snow like that but in many areas it was melting almost as fast as it fell. Anything in an area that would be sunny saw a slushy accumulation up to an inch, while "dark" areas are 1 to almost 2". Early and late season snow patterns are always interesting.

Light NE breeze off the sound....32/33 is basically the water temperature...and the snowpack temp.

32 with light rain.  At least by April it will be 42 and rain

I'm more bothered by backdoor action than late season polar vortex drops.  Today is probably in top 5 miserable day of the winter. 

Looking forward to mist and 48 into May. 

[MJO812]

If its not snowing give me a day like today. 30s and raining.

[STORMANLI]

Down to 33° after reaching 37°

-RA

[jm1220]

33 here. At that temp it can rain all it wants and barely any snow will melt.

Enjoying 30s and rain is borderline psychopathic. 

[gravitylover]

How many hours of rain at 30° is ok? It's been steady freezing rain for an hour. Yuck.

That's the other side of town from where I am but higher into the Taconics. Looks like they got a little more than I did before it flipped to sleet and rain.

No change at the stake since this morning.  Some sun and temps in the 40s tomorrow will impact the softened pack.

Surely there must be an exception for 32.5° and rain.

What is wouldn't pay for a radar loop of that storm lol. I think BDR reported 18 while HVN reported 45.

New Brunswick recorded 36" in Mar-1888 - still have no idea how NYC only measured 21" with those historic pix showing what looked like way more.

it was the same guy that measures today, he's a time traveler... I made a complaint about this to NOAA today on twitter!

Should the AO stay positive, it will probably be a one-week or so window of opportunity. If, however, blocking develops, then the probability of a multi-week cold period would increase. Hopefully, we can get a decent storm during the window of opportunity.

yea BDRs Mar 1888 total is totally ridiculous

FYI, I was emailing with David Robinson, the NJ State Climatologist about New Brunswick snowfalls and he said that the March 1888 blizzard was 36" (estimated) in NB.  Obviously data from that long ago can be a bit iffy, especially with the reported very high winds and drifting, but that's well out of range with what you have for CNJ, like the 21" vs. other much higher reports in NYC.  This is one of those storms where a 20-36" swath might be more appropriate.
