  1. Don't get me wrong, great storm today, but this is the problem with snow after mid Feb when it's not very cold. Melting happens quite quickly. Still, good storm though.
  2. Melting will begin this afternoon I guess. I wonder if temps will rebound in that area.
  3. 5.3" here in Bayside, Queens. Still coming down quite well, should be over in 1 hour, and crack 6" maybe. Temps were just too warm to start off with or this would have been higher impact. Or maybe since it was only from 6 am to 12-1 pm. 7 hours is just too short of a time for significant totals
  4. ICON is on an island with that one. That being said, weeklies still show a good pattern up until end of Feb, so many 10-13 more days, but after that, they’ve hasted the Spring pattern coming.
  5. Yeah still moderate to heavy snow in Queens. I still think Central Park can make it to 5” before it ends in 2 hours. What do you think?
  6. Storm is moving along rather quickly. Should be over by 1 here in NYC. Let’s hope that banding to the west pushes central park over the edge. I swear if the boroughs do great but Centeal park ends up with like 4” that’s just lmao and so typical of central park
  7. As far as the rest of the long range goes, not much to write home about. CPC says the northeast and the west coast stay colder than normal, with average conditions for much of the nation, with warmer conditions for southern plains. Precipitation anomalies remain below average. Looking like cooler weather but drier weather. Not going to cut it for the rest of the month
  8. Any obs from Manhattan. Looks like Queens and place east are going strong, and the Bronx and areas north are ripping as well.
  9. Still going strong here in Bayside. Soon we'll be up to 4" if not already there. Hoping Manhattan got out of their dry slot.
  10. Wonder how Manhattan is doing. Unfortunately, that's all that matters when it comes to official amounts in NYC. Snow hasn't let up here in Queens.
  11. Just around 3" here in Bayside so far. Been 2 hours since Central Park measured 1.5". Radar would have me believe that we're in light snow but its still heavy here. Come down like cottonballs. Northeast NJ is definitely getting subsidence though.
  12. Where the heaviest snow sets up, expect subsidence on both sides of that. LI looks like it's going to be crushed, but I am a bit worried about what that will mean for NE NJ and NYC. Wonder if the heavy stuff over LI will pivot back west as the low moves out.
  13. Looks like NYC is about to go through some sort of dry slot soon (or probably just light snow, considering how much moisture is in this storm.) A pocket of sinking air between heavier returns (indicated by yellows) moving into Long Island, and dark green over north and central NJ. Light green over northeast NJ heading towards NYC, we'll see if that's where the preliminary dry slot sets up.
  14. I'd assume that's an indication of less heavy or moderate snow moving through the area. Tends to look darker outside when snow is heavy. We should keep watching the obs from east PA, should be wrapping up there pretty quickly.
  15. I've noticed that storms tend to come in quicker and leave quicker than expected. Yesterday, most model depictions had snow until around 3 pm for today. Heard some sleet on and off last night, that was probably an indication of the storm coming in quicker
  16. Once the storm intensifies a bit quicker, it should throw some precipitation back west again. But yes, this storm is moving quicker than expected, should end much quicker than thought yesterday.
  17. Still snowing a good amount here in Bayside. Let's hope some of those yellow radar returns south of Long Island make its way into NYC. If it doesn't, then if it continues snowing at this rate, then 5-6" is a safe bet. Storm is chugging along real fast, might be over by 1 pm latest over here.
  18. Around 2" so far here in Bayside, Queens. Heavy snow, and breezy as well. Not anything near blizzard conditions, but it's making for a pretty scene. Been two years since this. We've missed it.
  19. Light rain here in Queens. Let’s see how many hours this last for before transitioning
  20. Big move on the weeklies, showing above normal temps 2-3 weeks from now. Looks like we’ll have a quick transition to spring after this wintry week coming up. Still shocks me how the long range is almost void of any snow for much of CONUS for the next few weeks. Even in abysmal winters of 2012,2020,2023, at least someone was getting the goods. This is just downright strange, like a winter without a winter (save for a couple weeks in January). Colder conditions look likely for the west, which could lead to some snow there over the next few weeks, but holy moly has this been an abrupt change in models for the long range.
  21. Same here. Point click forecast from NWS has 5-9" in north Queens. Only 4-6" in Manhattan, Staten Island, and south Brooklyn, south Queens, as far as point click forecasts go
  22. Indeed, I will say this is my first time tracking a storm in real time on this forum. I've been a lurker on here since Spring 2022, but there wasn't enough of a winter threat to track in real time (at least for my area), and it's been pretty fun to track this for the past 4-5 days with all of you. I've lurked on some other weather forum sites (not part of AmericanWx) as well, but thankfully, this site seems to be the most informative one in times like this (without endless hypecast on the other forum), and probably the most accurate site overall.
  23. That's probably all from the storm tomorrow. In the more immediate short term after that, looks like temps are around normal for the foreseeable future, but temps in 40s (as we head towards that time of year), aren't going to cut it, as far as snow prospects go. Looks like the western ridge pulls back a bit, with a trough in the Central US that won't work for most of this region.
  24. Let's hope we can all capitalize on this threat on Tuesday, Checked out some of the 18z model runs, nothing to speak of coming down the pike after Tuesday. Looks high and dry
  25. As we know, a positively tilted trough doesn't allow the storm to ride up the coast which would push the boundary layer further south and therefore, the risk for snow as well
