Im barely past the bronx lol. I consider myself NYC although this forum seems to consider lower Westchester a different world.
-
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_coastal_plain#/media/File:Atlantic_Coastal_Plain.svg Based on that non of the subforum is actually the coast except Jersey Shore and LI but for meteorological purposes I find it hard to say that doesn't extend a bit further NW and also further up the coast to Boston and Maine.

Yea maybe but i'd rather have snow that lasts all winter than have occasional blizzards and then not much else. I would say I can't tell if its biased off the last 10 years but I didn't realize how much better Long Island especially north shore is for snow than the 5 boroughs. If I don't end up in Orange County at some point, I might consider moving to LI, the sea breeze in the summer and cooler nights would be nice too, although can also get cooler summer nights not that far north of the city.
-
Same I always loved geography. My goal since young was to move off an island and onto the continent for better luck during winter storms. Unfortunately where I am now is way closer to the city than I had hoped to be at this point in my life.
-
Thats so interesting! People don't know they live on an island? The whole city is Islands except the Bronx.

2/13 Light/Moderate Snowfall Nowcasting & Observations
HVSnowLover replied to Northof78's topic in New York City Metro
Agree an 18z run of the gfs is not going to drastically alter this. -
Its an interesting discussion for when things are boring. I agree its frustrating when it becomes part of storm threads.
-
Is this the right thread for climo discussions? I see most post was deleted from the storm thread which im fine with, I realize it was off topic.
-
Agree I also am sure it's wrong. I got definitely over 8.5 inches and I live just north of the city so I'd imagine Central Park got more. It was honestly a very boring storm with low rates here but the ratios were great and I went outside and was like woah with all the snow.

2/13 Light/Moderate Snowfall Nowcasting & Observations

If Euro/CMC meet in the middle we'd have an nice storm. -
Im just surprised how disappointed people were with 8-16 inches of snow from that storm from NYC and points east.
-
It's high ratio snow so it's 4.5 inches verbatim kuchera maps right now (not that verbatim matters this far out).
-
Most SE so far of the major guidance at 12z.
-
If you are referring to the last big storm I would say the end results are the surface for just fine for most of the subforum.
-
Lot of variability here. The CMC tends to overamp around this range. The Euro also tends to overamp around this range so would like to see it come on board to feel higher confidence.
-
I wonder if precip can hang on long enough if we'll get any sleet or snow at the very end. This has been hinted at as a possibility.
-
GFS underestimated the warmth and was off with the timing of the cold coming in but it may actually have nailed the amounts of ice best.
-
Its in the mid 20s in central Westchester right now unless you consider that an extreme northern area.
-
In fairness I think most of the non event people meant for within NYC/LI and south of I80 in NJ. However it does appear it is starting to become an event for NYC/LI.
-
Temps have crashed a lot in most of the subforum in the last several hours. Even the coast of the city is now below freezing and northern parts of the city are now in the 20s. Not sure what is going on there in terms of your temp barely dropping.
-
Now 28 with ZR and still a decent amount of precip left to the west...
-
Down to 29. Trees all glazed.
-
As with most ZR events rural vs urban makes a big difference, colder on south shore of LI right now than in midtown.
-
The 30 degree line is now around the cross county parkway, anywhere above there is getting really really messy and anywhere below may get messy if that line drops any further south.
-
I think almost all of Westchester is about to be a mess if not already.
