Sleet snow mix with a dusting on colder surfaces uws
-
A few mangled flakes mixed in on the uws. Par for the course this winter
-
It would fit this winter well. The late December cold shot killed back allot of perennials that surged the last few much snowier winters. Nothing worse then super cold and wind without insulation from snow pack…
-
15” should be about right, we had 18” in wantagh. The furthest west part of the deform band got to about eastern queens. Had cpk not gotten 5” from a freak sound effect band before the mane precip shield it would have been a total non event.
-
The opposite is likely to happen. As the Bermuda high pushes north west and the dry heat with it. We will have summers more like the south east with much higher dews and more convection. Add more tropical threats and we should average closer to 60” a year then 40”.
-
Just absolutely a monsoon on the south shore right now. Heavy precip even by summer standers
-
Switched to all snow for a brief period on the uws. Even tried to accumulate
-
It’s definitely not snow on the uws, but it’s definitely not rain, there are some mangled flakes mixed which I can see on the windshield
-
Still awaiting the precip (rain) on the uws. Being about as far NW you can get in NYC isn’t going to help in this one…
-
The next storm could mean major power issues here in southern VT. Trees are just loaded with snow.
-
Snow has finally ended at Stratton SvT. Estimating 12-14”. Very very very good storm for the mountains. -
It’s not often I agree with you but this is spot on. I personally think we do not get the futility record though.
-
Top three day I have ever had at Stratton currently. Just the right amount of powder and a weekday crowd for untouched epic ness!!
-
Somewhere in 10-12” range currently at Stratton. SN+ continues
-
It was more like 8 that went to a heavy rain on the south shore of Long Island. Which would fit this winter.
-
About 5” so far at 900’ SvT. A couple power flickers but still on so far.
-
This is our 1995 repeat, one shot storm in my opinion.
-
That’s was my thinking. Normal people aren’t watching the dual pol and cams obsessively, checking precip types and just assumed 8-10” of snow had fallen not 2” of sleet and 2” of snow. The trees up high are gorgeous with some of the best rime In years
-
Tons and tons of rime above 2k in SvT. The trees are going to have a serious bend after this storm cycle
-
Exactly, the differences can be extreme. I only had a foot at my house at 900’ during the December storm, while above 2k it was 24”+. My favorite snow spot in the area is on 30 by the old snow valley resort. When I look to buy up here eventually it will be in that area. Overall this looks like a good one here, after the warm air aloft crushed hearts and dreams with round one.
-
Had to have been a record crowd yesterday at Stratton. I have never seen cars parked for a mile down some of the access roads. And of course with the crowds everything skied off quick. Ended up having less snow and more sleet then forecast with the first storm. On to round 2.
-
Staying up in southern Vermont for this one. Absolutely worth a vacation day. Currently flurries with a coating that fell over night at Stratton, which should be in a very good spot for this.
-
Based on low level wind flow temps along the coast will be in upper 30s as precip moves in. So even if there is snow falling from colder air aloft, your going to need some heavy rates to get anything to accumulate. It will be a rates driven scenario, light snow and warm surface temps aren’t going to cut it.
-
Interesting, i work at Columbia a couple blocks from the parks and we had a very solid coating on all colder surfaces, so the park did as well.
-
Even if the park does manage a coating don’t expect it to be measured. We absolutely had a coating during the December event, I have pics to prove it, and it wasn’t recorded.
