NYsnowlover Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Ave Y and snow..ah the memories..nice pic Anthony! Takes me back! That was a nice blizzard, but it does not beat the Blizzard of 1978 for the long Island area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pamela Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 That was a nice blizzard, but it does not beat the Blizzard of 1978 for the long Island area. The December 2009 storm was much, much better in Suffolk County than the December 2010 storm...the 1/11/2011 storm was probably the second best of the 7 KU storms that hit the area between March 2009 and January 2011.

Both storms gave me 20+ inches and wind, but either way, nothing beats the blizzard of 1978. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTrials Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Were you using the Zonties method of snow measurement? You had the same thing, according to Alex. I was on the phone with him at the height of the storm, it was 4-5 inches an hour, easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 4 and then 14.5 so there's the 18.5 total. The morning might have been 5 right after it fell but I didn't have a chance to measure it until late that afternoon. It probably compacted/melted some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw heavier snow than you at night, the radar shows it. That's the extra I got that you didn't, but you did better during 12/27 IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTrials Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 18Z GFS has a huge noreaster for halloween and gives central PA up to central NY 3+ feet of heavy wet snow. We get a little over running and maybe something on the very backside. Nice track into Delmarva out to eastern tip of LI but no real cold air or block and way too early in the season.

GFS has been honking for something down that timeframe, but obviously, being 250+hrs out, its pure fantasy at this point and time. Fun to look at though..
