  1. Started out as some sleet mixed with rain but quickly went to rain along the south shore of Brooklyn. Of course NYC sanitation was salting the highways.
  2. Received .72 inches of rain with a max wind gust at 47 mph (at 3am) at my station in Sheepshead Bay.
  3. Lots of lightning just off the coast of the Carolinas and south of there. Another couple of lightning strikes a short time ago just to the east of Cape May. Looks like 2 squall lines with a 3rd forming near the rain to snow transition area in the southern end of the system. Barometer dropping like a rock. Down to 29.70.
  4. Intense radar returns down in DE/MD and radar getting quite robust to our south. Heading north.
  5. The utility companies are planning for this. I know of several people who have relatives that work for Con Edison and they already told them they will be working on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I'm sure it's the same across the other nearby utility covered areas as well.
  6. They may shut down the Verrazano bridge if those winds develop. The bridge runs pretty much east-west, so southerly winds will have a big effect on traffic up there.
  7. High Wind Watch has been extended by OKX to cover all of NYC, lower Westchester and Hudson County NJ
  8. From OKX AFD early AM discussion: A mid level shortwave trough may continue the chance of showers into Sunday night with perhaps a rain/snow mix across the interior. At this time looks as though the precipitation will end by late Sunday night as the disturbances moves to the northeast and north. Additionally, in response to Pac jet energy farther south, a couple of weak coastal lows Sunday night into Monday look to pass well south and east of the region. Eventually, a much deeper low forms east of New England Monday night into Tuesday. There is still some hint of Norlun trough/trowal in the vicinity of the northern Mid Atlantic at the same time, but the placement of these is always difficult this many days out. Thus, have maintained a low chance of precipitations at this time.
  9. They don't have snowfall totals because there is no snow measuring system on their stations. That's the old fashioned sink the ruler into the snowpack method lol.
  10. 6.5 inches this morning here in Sheepshead Bay. This includes about a half inch or so of sleet.
  11. Look what's coming north from the Jersey shore. Maybe it's sleet or large flakes, but looks juicy on radar.
  12. No sleet here in Sheepshead Bay either. Some half dollar sized flakes mixed in with the smaller flakes but no sleet.
  13. One of the Davis stations in Belmar measured a gust to 78 mph. Don't know how accurate or how high that station is mounted. Other nearby stations gusting to the mid 50s.
  14. Try this link. Not sure if you have to be a member. https://www.weatherlink.com/map/febb373c-0fb5-4316-bb92-fbdd2636d2bd
  15. 4 inches and 30 degrees here in Sheepshead Bay. Wind still NE at 20 G 30 at the nearby Kingsborough College Davis Weather Station right on the water.
  16. As per Steve D (nynjpaweather) Twitter feed: The 925 MB low has formed slightly south and east of my expectation to the point where I can say look to the high end of the storm forecast for this storm. Many locations will over perform
