I believe 4” is the proper mark for December La Niña . We still have another half of the month to go but either way doesn’t look like there’s anything on the horizon
-
Yep, same here in Bayside. Reached just about 6" on the dot around 11:40. Has compacted about 1 inch or so since then. Lots of 4-6" reports throughout the boroughs except a few pockets like CPK, LGA. But is is NYC's official measuring site so for all intents and purposes, when people look back on this storm in the future, they'll think we all only got 2-3" lol
-
Yeah this is the best event for most of us since Jan 2022, although many also saw similar totals with the 2/13/24 storm (I believe that was the date) that was a widespread 5-8" for most but similar to this storm, was a 3-5" for the boroughs because of UHI
-
I figured JFK would come in with a total of over 4". Most of the boroughs has anywhere from 4-6", with 3-4" more common only in Manhattan. Aside from LGA and CPK's notorious undermeasurement, this was a pretty good forecast for most of the area. In fact, most places overperformed just to our north, east, south, and west. Pretty much an overperformer for everyone except the boroughs because of UHI.
-
Most of the boroughs have 4-6", just CPK will probably have 3" so maybe this statistic can still be used as a benchmark for the rest of the season?
-
In Jan 2022, they recorded over that amount twice. I believe they recorded 9" for the early Jan storm (that was an overperformer, was expected to get 3-5", ended up with 5-9" across the city) and then late Jan storm was around 10" I believe
-
1 Pm we'll see the totals from the big 3 recording sites. I'll go with 4.5" JFK, 4" LGA, 3" Central Park
-
Awesome, similar amounts over here. Barring any strange measurements from the official measuring sites, we were all in line with what was expected. Good to see
-
Just light snow now, going to end in a few minutes, I'm sure. Becoming quite cold and blustery. Finished off with just about 6" here in Bayside (one of the colder and more elevated spots of Queens). Waiting for the final measurements from CPK, LGA, and JFK, but seems like the lowest amounts are around 3.5 in parts of Brooklyn, Manhattan, Bronx, but Staten Island Queens has widespread 5-6." Seems pretty in line with all forecasts. Nice bust in the good direction though for the suburbs, lots of 6-8 in southern Westchester, northeast and central NJ, and Suffolk County. NYC is surrounded by 6-8 lol, but too warm to start off in the boroughs, knocked us down to 3-6 (which was in line with forecasts).
-
you had a good band come through for a while, probably definitely near 4" now for you
-
2 inches on top of car after being cleared off around 830 this morning, and there were a few inches already on the car at that time. So we added about 2 inches in the past 3 hours. About to finish up here anyway, maybe an additional 0.1" by the time it wraps up
-
Wrapping up here in northern Queens, should be completely done within 30 minutes or so, just light snow now. Cleared off top of the car and windshield at 8:30, I see it covered now so will check soon to see how much has fallen over the past 3 hours
-
Probably a shredder look because the ridge is centered over CONUS. If we could get that ridge to go a bit further back over west US, we'd be in better shape, but that storm heading into the west coast will just force the ridge to roll over anyway
-
That would probably boost them to 3", considering ratios are likely closer to 10:1 now that temps are a few degrees colder than this morning. Do you know how much LE has fallen at LGA and JFK since then
-
You'll probably crack 4" by the time all is said and done. Will likely wrap up in an hour or so.
