RU848789 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 RU848789, on 26 January 2011 - 11:27 PM, said:2" in the last 75 minutes, as of 11:15 pm. Wow. Pouring snow with maybe 1/8 mile visibility right now. 5.5" from Part 1 and now 4.5" from Part 2 for 10.0" total. Up to 50" for the season! Radar is insane over my part of Middlesex County right now, with 35-40 DBZ echos, so I'm hoping for another 4" or more before it's over. I love snow. Double wow - as of 12:15 am, one hour later, we now have 7.5" of new snow, meaning we got 3.0" in the last hour. I think that's the most I've ever recorded, although I wasn't recording snowfall rates for the Jan 1996 storm or anything before that. I guess the radar really doesn't lie, lol - those yellows were over us for most of the last hour and I got to walk around in it for awhile. Just a deluge of snow like I've never seen before - definitely a little heavier than I recall for 12/26/10, although not as windy, so visibility was still a little better tonight, as visibility is about 200 yards right now, whereas it went down to 50 yards or less at times due to the heavy snowfall plus the wind for the 12/26 storm. Looks like only another 1-2 hours of accumulating snow. At 13.0" total right now - would love to get to 16". Just got back in from another walk outside and I implore you armchair snow weenies - get the F up off the couch and get outside and walk around - it's simply gorgeous out there. Anyway, as of 1:15 am we now have 10.5" of new snow, meaning we just had our 2nd hour in a row with 3" per hour rates. Never seen that before. 16.0" total today, bringing the seasonal total up to 56". Looks like another hour or so of accumulating snow, so maybe we get to 17-18" total.

TwcMan Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Def. over a foot outside....reading peoples local observations and eyeballing it, I would say around 15-16 inches total so far from this morning and tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 150% closed...with almost 18in storm total I doubt they're able to clear it all Tough one Bloomberg would get more flack for issues keeping them open than closing. I go closed. Either way attendance will be less than 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Back to Back Record-breaking winters on hand for us. This is history baby, savor it. I'm in heaven right now, idk who's gonna pull me out. I love NYC. I love Snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yes but for now it's pulsing heavier in our area... unreal. Kudos for driving out in this! You have a total? I didn't think I was going out tonight, but my friend from the other side of town invited me over. Usually she doesn't let me drive on her back rooms in storms. It was almost scary, but thrilling at the same time. it's really impossible to measure, I didn't clear any areas and the areas that were clear, our landlord came through and blew through it with his plow and shovels :/ I do know that we had just about 3 inches with the first batch and probably at least 10 inches since then...

SEC Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 no I know I'm just amazed...top 10 storm anyone? LOL It would have to total 17.7" to break into the Top 10.... there's a chance of that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 smithtown has 20" today???? NO EFFING WAY! it was sleet till 11pm, no? That was 20 on the ground at 1AM. We had 13 on the ground before the snow started this morning. But that was 45 minutes ago...we are pushing 23" on the ground now...this is total insanity for the past hour. As of 1:45 we are at about 11" for this storm...and increasing rapidly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eduggs Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I'm telling you, man...the SPC-WRF is insane. It was northwest of the NAM last night and I knew we were good to go. I mean seriously...can this model be this good? Didn't it bring heavy snow to BGM last night? Scranton, Monticello, and even Poughkeepsie were not exactly buried.

ace0927 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 did i just read that nyc's snowiest month is 36? and they are now around 33 or 34" they should break that with this storm.. NYC was at 17" before a flake fell today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Didn't it bring heavy snow to BGM last night? Scranton, Monticello, and even Poughkeepsie were not exactly buried. No..it was south and east of it's 12z run last night at 00z. It bumped NW at 12z and that's as far NW as it got as far as I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sey-Mour Snow Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 one of the few storms where its going to end much later than we thought.. i thought between 1am and 3am for the area.. and its always quicker than first thought.. and now it looks like ending between 3 and 5 for the area.. this is what i said needed to happen for someone to reach 20" and with so many people sleeping im sure there will be a report of 24" in the early morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace0927 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 never thought seeing 1 ft 3 times in 30 days was a possibility (well at least at my location) ive had 19", 9" and now 14" (as of 125pm).....plus a few little deals...45" in 31 days....SICK SH-T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
