Finally some interesting weather coming up.. Maybe we can cash in on some of the white stuff :)

As soon as I leave for NE NJ there's the potential for widespread snow showers in the Hudson Valley this weekend, the first of several potentials... it seems wherever I go it just doesn't want to snow. You'd be better off with me staying there for a while :lol:

To say I'm excited about the coming 2 weeks of weather would be a tremendous understatement. Most models agree on some form of Christmas Day snow event. A dusting to an inch seems most likely for the area, but snow falling and sticking would be a GREAT present for all of us.

Then there's the 27th/28th storm... what can be said? 00z GFS drops 10" on Mid Hudson Valley. (should be noted 18z GFS had an OTS solution). The NAO may not be optimum for a major east coast event, but as NYCSuburbs mentioned, the HUGE Canadian block should keep us safe from another dreaded GLC.

Then the BRUTAL cold sets in. PNA goes positive, NAO goes neutral / negative, and we go into the freezer. Looks like 10 + days of sub 32 highs... I wonder if people will ask "Is this winter just a repeat of last winter" anymore after Jan 1st?

Welcome Patrick to the Land of the Misfits, LOL. If you read the subtitles it would appear that there is only Metro and Western NY, the rest of the state has gone AWOL apparently. So feel free to post with us, there are a number of us from the Mid-Hudson region specifically that post here in a regular basis, you should fit in nicely here.

Hey Patrick.. Welcome!! This is probably the best place for you to post. During good events we have quite a few posters in this sub forum.

Temp has been crashing nonstop since 8:45.. Down to 44* w/ 1.05" of rain

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. Lol...land of misfits. I moved from the concrete jungle of lower Passaic county in part to see more snow...dont have weather station set up yet, but I'm just"down the road" from the Sussex county airport. Snow showers all afternoon.

We had about a half inch 23 miles west of Albany...long since washed away of course. Flurries, etc. since Mid Afternoon then.

Does anyone know if there were any accumulations (even a coating) along I-87 with the front end snow last night? I had some unexpected light snow/sleet in Albany, I may have seen some on my way to NE NJ last night but it was too dark to see if there were any accumulations.

I87 had a small coating of snow on the shoulders from about exit 14 up. I got off exit 17 and the ramp and route 9 was covered over. It was washed away by 9 am though

Next week looks interesting for all, to say the least. If am looking at the models correctly, looks like all of us in the higher terrain east of the apps see 12+. Open to correction.

Yeah, He's up near Glens Falls

Thought so. I've heard some funny/interesting stories over the years from a couple of guys I know who worked for NYSDOT in regards to plowing.

I'm loving the mood flakes falling here this morning. Just some flurries earlier and some actual light snow right now. Looks like a big week coming up Boys!
