NorthShoreWx Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Light wet snow mixed with a little rain here. Temp is 38. High temp earlier was 42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbc Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 this is quite the lessons for the know-it-alls in this forum. Lol you make it sound like folks here do not understand that the boundary layer could be an issue. Most folks here, even the hardest core snow weenie knows that on 3/25 if we did not get the best CCB action/dynamics we would not accumulate much if anything at all or even see anything frozen.

IsentropicLift Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 At this point I would consider seeing one flake as a victory. We had flurries a few hours ago that lasted about 20 seconds. If you blinked you would have missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastalplainsnowman Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I observe rain here in SE Nassau. Objective question (not a whiny snow lover question - 10+years ago yes, but not anymore).. There have been at least four, maybe five events this year by my count, particularly since the big 2/8 event, in which the the NWS Upton snowfall maps, even right up to the onset of a given event, were calling for snowfall amounts, typically, 3, 4, 5, or 6 inch events, when the sense on this board was that the event would not materialize. Is it because those maps represent some low probability, do they not take current conditions into account, or did they just have a streak of bad luck, or is the collective wisdom on this site just that impressive? My take is that if not for the 2/8 event, the headline around here might be 'how many times is upton going to show 3-6 inches of snow and we end up with absolutely nothing?'

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 One of the WACKY ONES! I left Hofstra in central Nassau with rain and zip. Got home to South Wantagh 7 miles South East to a nice half inch coating on non paved surfaces. Go South for snow North for rain tonight... (I know its all about rates, but still what a way to end the season in opposite land!) One of the few time I have ever seen this type of setup.
