Question Don, do you believe the Central Park measurement of 1.8 to be accurate? It is apparently low again, as it usually is. They can't ever seem to get it straight, and the last several years it seems even worse. Not actually having an observer or office there really makes it a joke. They should either used trained spotters for snow totals or just give LGA as the snow measurements. Curious of your thoughts on that.

Ridiculous but ive grown numb to it.

It's an old story and a very annoying one. Nothings ever done about it.

One of the rare times in recent years that Central Park has come in accurate at least to this point in time. If snow is still falling from overnight the 7 am measurement seems to be the only time they are ever close. If this fell between 8am to noon the measurement at 7pm or midnight would be way underdone as always due to compression and melting. I'll take the accuracy when we can get it.

3.6 inches here as of 7am. May have added a few tenths since. Will get final measurement at 10:00.

3.6 inches with snow nearing it's end. This gets me into double digits for the season. I'd been lagging on the last couple.

25* degrees with light snow nearing the edge. 3.6 inches on the ground which will still be here Christmas Eve and morning. The nightmare of Christmas Eve and Christmas 2020 has been avenged.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. A week before Christmas I call it ugly.

I believe Old Forge holds the record low for New York State of -52. Checked myself on that it definitely was Old Forge. February 1976.

Thanks Rob, Am I missing anything over an inch before January 7 last year?

As I began my record keeping today for snowfall for this season I noticed that last season I didn't record a measurable snowfall until January 7th. That seems very late even in a horrible winter like the last. Can someone that keeps good records, check me on that. Thanks in advance.

Similar here, 3 inches on the snowboard, but more on other areas and already melting from underneath on the driveway. 32° and light snow

32 degrees heavy snow. Grass and roads covered. Plow just came through. Wasn't expecting that.

At least some snow is not only looking possible but likely Thursday night. Some of the clown maps for NW Orange and Sullivan for Thursday night are double digits, RIDIC probably but certainly not impossible. As long as we get a decent amount of qpf I don't care what form it comes in. Of course if I had a choice I'd make it white.

Any chance we're looking at some snow for Thursday night? Seems like the chances for at least a couple of inches in the towns above 500 feet are a realistic possibility. Above 1000 feet even better, maybe several inches.
