  1. or white rain like you usually get!
  2. yeah in the past I always looked at President's Day as the end of anything that would be long lasting on the ground or even come at all. But the last few years have seen a March resurgence in snows and even snowpack (last year we had 10 inches and it hung around for close to a week)
  3. 30 with ZR here-a layer of snow under it. Roads are just wet but everything else has a coating of ice.
  4. This reminds me of the time LC (a short fused met) wished an inch of ice on some loudmouth and then it happened.
  5. yeah, I doubt anyone see an inch of ice for this very reason-alot will run off-the biggest accretions are longer duration, lighter precip rates
  6. I-287 give or take. Has some decent ZR like the other models just a bit lighter and slightly further north
  7. almost impossible for ZR to accrete on the streets of NYC unless it's been bitter cold for days--ground is still generally warm this time of year as well.
  8. other way around-the state can use salt/calcium Chloride on state roads. Towns can do as they wish, but Fairfield no longer uses sand
  9. don't worry the rain will wash it away. interesting NYC still uses sand, the state of CT banned it about 10 years ago (local towns can use it if they wish)
  10. north of NYC (let's say 287) will do the best-Euro has those areas with 2-3 inches of snow then sleet and ZR on top. By the time it nudges above 32, the storm is over. Some areas, such as DXR and BDR and HPN could be above 10 inches for seasonal snowfall by then. Arctic cold shot follows.
  11. a fair amount of snow survived today-didn't really clear out until 1-2pm-that helped plus low December sun angle.
  12. fantasy land at day 10. (I'd say that even if it showed the next ice age)
  13. my local reporting Station (BDR) is at close to 7 inches of snow in the last 11 days. So we're already 25% of normal right out of the gate.
  14. 2 inches here with less on roads, kids have a 2 hr delay. Euro did well on this one.
  15. The model truncates after a certain hour-(less resolution)-that's why anything beyond day 7 or so is pure fantasy
  16. for anything more than an inch on the grass/car tops, yeah-hate seeing the Euro never be on board for this one, looks like it will turn out to be right. Too little QPF and with temps in the 50's for 2 days and with marginal temps this won't be much.
  17. Car topper per the latest trends. It'll be near freezing and less than .25 of QPF. Meh.
  18. if there moderate rates that will work-light rates won't just like the last system.
  19. um the trend--models are cutting back slowly but surely. Light to moderate rates won't do it especially after 2 days of rain and temps in the 50's. Could be another win for the Euro which has never been impressed with this system.
