Is it poor form these days for peeps to post visuals of storms that are only 4/5 days out now? Not asking for clown maps, just a little more in here to see when I check in would be fun/informative.

An official nws obs at 7:00am at LGA for 8.4 inches while it was still snowing pretty good... is quite the over performance no matter how you cut it. 3-5 inch was the overwhelming prediction on just about every outlet. Seems like while we had a pretty strong consensus of .4-.5 liquid equivalent precipitation, but everybody has been burned too much by estimating ratios in the past, even if this storm screamed higher ratio snows. If they had gone with higher ratio snow idea we prob would have been in a WSW instead of a ww advisory for NYC and it would have been appropriate, because nearly 9 inches in a 7 hour period of snow is not advisory level stuff.

Feb 18-19 long duration manageable snow and ice event
Jt17 replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
Certainly seems to have trended that way. -
Feb 18-19 long duration manageable snow and ice event

This has to be the slowest this forum has been less than 2 days before what's looking like an 8-12 inch mostly snow event for the entire sub-forum lol! -
Nothing will beat 1996 for me. The storm was so intense I honestly think it was hard to get spotters to even do snow measurements. It's hard to explain how intense that storm was... The drifts were ridiculous too!

I disagree - Central Park is most likely over 18 inches already. I read the update and unless they misworded it they corrected there 1 PM report in Central Park to 15.3 inches of snow because they forgot to add the 2 inches from yesterday. I'm here in NYC and we definitely had consistent albeit lighter snow since then. No doubt they'll get to 18 inches or more, as will all of the other boros. Edit - Central Park up to 18.3....

still thinking 12"-18" or more like 18"-24" now that it seems the panic of the dry slot is dissipating?

If this verifies Central Park has a legit run at a top 4 snowfall. The models predicted this to be a long storm, I think people got spooked when the earlier bands passed by and figured that was the end of it...

That total was over 2 hours ago and 2 of those hours included intense snow. Almost certainly over 15 inches so far.

Most of the five boros have reports of 15+ inches already with plenty of time left to tack on 5 more inches. Eventually the radar will fill back in and it won't take very much to get 20 inch totals. I think people just expect snow to arrive in a far more linear way than it actually does. As we've seen, it comes in waves.

I'm pretty sure many have forgotten just how long a duration this storm is going to be. It's going to pivot and heavy returns will make its way back through. Patience folks. Currently puking snow here in Flushing Queens.

You keep saying that but the returns say otherwise. I'm here in queens and it's puking snow. I think the camera can make it look like it's snowing more or less heavily than it actually is depending on a few various factors...

No he means we got 5+ inches area wide that wasn't even picked up by the models.

That was an over an hour ago too, so possibly a fair bit more at this point!

Radar is starting to fill in quite a bit and the snow has picked up quite a bit here in intensity in Queens!

Ugh that stinks, but let the coastal do it's thing and it should turn to snow for a good chunk of the day, though where you are mixing/rain will definitely come back for some time at the end.

The storm has barely started, we were supposed to have very little snow at this point (we're definitely ahead of schedule snow totals wise) and based on all guidance the significant snows are going to last until the late evening/early Tuesday. It's a long duration storm.

Snowing at a pretty decent clip here in Flushing Queens... surprising when looking at the radar. In any case the snow totals seems to be way ahead of schedule for a big chunk of the sub-forum, considering the main event hasn't even started and the main event is quite long at that!
