WintersGrasp Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I was curious if anyone verified the HRRR from earlier. I don't think I've heard of a 6''/hr total except for the mega lake effect bands and even that's rare I would think? I believe it showed it in the mountains of Maryland and Virginia/west virginia.... which, in a storm with dynamics such as this one....is very possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris L Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Heaviest snow I've seen in 33 years right now. The only thing preventing this from being an absolute whiteout is that the snow is still on the wet side. Close to 5"/ hour rates. February 1983 rates?

SACRUS Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yup...plenty of potential with the gradient and overrunning pattern in that time frame. Signal has been there. Beyond the clippers this weekend and the potential storm next week, the ice box opens up. What a winter. My christmas stuff is still frozen into the lawn and under a months worth of snowpack.

Snowlover11 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 well I graduated high school in 2005 back on long island I'm up at new york medical college in valhalla...Westchester climate FTW ah nice! Jesus just when I thought it couldnt get any heavier it does, all I hear are the snow plows in the parking alot down my street can't see **** easily 3" an hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJO812 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Light to moderate snow for everybody at 132 hrs. Surface reflection is weak but overrunning signal is there. Went from a GLC to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindywx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 February 1983 rates? Surpassed Feb 83 but equaling the whiteout that shut down all of the parkways in the Feb 78 storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 What would truly be awesome and what would separate this winter from all others is to have snow on the ground for all of February as well. 2 straight months with snowcover would be unprecedented. Signal has been there. Beyond the clippers this weekend and the potential storm next week, the ice box opens up. What a winter.

Sey-Mour Snow Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 still 2" per hour.. 12.5" total 8.5" in 3.5hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Just got back from my 3rd jebwalk, and Upper Manhattan is completely covered, nowhere to go, snow is piling up quick. I tried to grab a measurement, but pretty difficult since I didn't set up a place to measure, but looks like a solid 10" on the ground (but I could be wayyy offfff) all I know is that it is feet deep out there, sig accumulations, and that was 30 minutes ago, and still coming down heavily. I don't want it to end. Simply amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris L Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 My father hasn't seen it snow this hard since the February Blizzard of 1983.... That shows you what a class this storm is been called in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WintersGrasp Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 What is the most important thing that I learned from this storm and from this winter in general ? THE MODELS DO NOT FULLY TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DYNAMICS OF STORMS. In some cases, the models can simulate banding and show 12" of snow, for example, over an area...and they will get only 6" as the banding might set up elsewhere and not be as strong or fully developed. OR, it can show 12" of snow....and the banding might set up nearby or elsewhere but be STRONGER than modeled...and suddenly...that area can get 20" ! These are VERY important things to take into consideration. However, basically...what it means...is that when making predictions....rather than a "general 6 to 10 inches" call....when dealing with storms such as this....a more honest call would be "models are showing a general 6 to 10 inches over the area...however...if this storm winds up as we feel it could....those areas or areas nearby could get amounts in the 15-20" range" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 MTA Bus Service is suspended, J line is suspended in both directions the whole way, A suspended from Euclid Ave to the Rockaways, definitely starting to sound like 12/26 and would be absolutely foolish for Bloomberg to not close schools tomorrow. It's also a wetter, heavier snow than the storm from 2 weeks ago. Plus there's much more of it on the ground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGoose69 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 NYC officially in with 12.3 on their climate report, so that means they got 8.3 inches from around 910pm to midnight since thats was around the snow changeover occurred...they're at 49.4 for the season....or should I say WERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sampson Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I can confirm Central Park has received at least 11" new coupled with the 4" that fell today. It really could be more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 No, it's 9" on the ground. (JFK had 2" on the ground before this event began). The number after the slash in a SNINCR comment is the snow on the ground (the number before the slash is the amount of new snow in the past hour). Smithtown: SNINCR 3/20 EDIT: This was at 1AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
