  1. 16 inches and intensity level way back up again. I'd guess 2 inch per hour rates currently.
  2. There have now been 39 foot plus storms in NYC, but 11 have now occurred since the year 2000. Also there have been 67 storms of 10 inches plus. Who really can tell the difference between 10 & 12, minor.
  3. The 1996 storm it was high single digits when it started. Ratios even in NYC were 15 to 20:1 in that storm.
  4. It looks like this may have what it takes to crack the top 20 list in NYC of top storms of all time. They need 15.3 inches to do it. A lot of the guidance seems to give them a decent shot. 20 Largest Snowstorms All Time Central Park in NYC (through Jan 31, 2021) Rank.Amount..Date 1……..27.5…..January 23, 2016 2……..26.9…..February 11-12, 2006 3……..25.8…..December 26-27, 1947 4……..21.0…..March 12-14, 1888 5……..20.9…..February 25-26, 2010 6……..20.2…..January 7-8, 1996 7……..20.0…..December 26-27, 2010 8……..19.8…..February 16-17, 2003 9……..19.0…..January 26-27, 2011 10…..18.1…..March 7-8, 1941 11…..18.1…..January 22-24, 1935 12…..18.0…..December 26, 1872 13…..17.7…..February 5-7, 1978 14…..17.6…..February 11-12, 1983 15…..17.5…..February 4-7, 1920 16…..17.4…..February 3-4, 1961 17…..16.0…..December 19-20, 1948 18…..16.0…..February 12-13, 1899 19…..15.3…..February 9-10, 1969 20…..15.2…..December 11-12, 1960
  5. Unless it moves 40 miles east, then it's right over us. That 27 is right over my house as it stands.
  6. And here comes the 0Z GFS saying it's about time the HV was the sweet spot in one of these runs.
  7. I'm not quite sure how you define historic but NYC, which is usually on the low end of the storm totals, has had 38 storms of 12 inches or more, 66 storm of 10 inches or more, including about a month ago, and 10 storms of a foot or more in the last 20 years. Historic might be a little strong, 20 inches or more in NYC, there's only been 7 of those so that might be a good classification of historic for NYC, but I doubt that happens for them this storm.
  8. Your damn right the 0Z NAM looks good. It's still snowing at hour 84.
  9. 1.8 inches here in Highland Mills in eastern Orange County. Snowing again so maybe we eke out two inches from this 12 hour event. Not the most exciting storm but It’s been a boring five week stretch so I’ll take it.
  10. Well two things, the Catskills average a lot more snow per season than Boston, and of course these things work both ways, but everyone forgets about the time they cashed in, only about the time they missed. The extreme case in point of course is the February 25-26 2010 storm. In orange county where I am I received 35 inches, Hunter mountain in the Catskills got close to five feet, Boston a lot of rain.
  11. You're talking about three distinctly different climates for the three cities. Washington DC averages 15 inches of snow a season, NYC averages double that or 30 inches a season, and Boston 60% more than NYC or 48 inches. Boston has a snowfall averages more in line with the HV.
  12. At this point WDC is within 10 days of setting their longest snow-less streak so why bother breaking it now? Go for the gold, I'm hoping Thursdays storm hits Hilton Head.
