IrishRob17 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Yeah, untreated roads were really slick again last night, much like they were Thu morning. Pleasantly surprised to still have 16" at the stake this morning. That really shows the staying power of a pack with multiple events in it.

If the GFS is right we'll probably be praying for spring to come end our misery, lol.

Animal Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 Good day all, Current temp is 47F. Plenty of melting today as expected. Finally getting some of the snow ruts in the roads cleared up in the area. high of 48F . Keeping my fingers crossed that March delivers a decent elevation snow event again. Possible event mid-week and a few flakes possible late tomorrow night into Monday morning. Cold beers and grilling on order tonight. Best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 18 Z runs are pumping out 2-4 tomorrow night into Monday depending on your location. Just enough to pad the February numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwest NJ Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 What a disaster the main thread is lol.. I swear there should be an age limit on this board Thank God many of the childish posters in the main NYC forum don't post here. We have a really good group and it has been growing. The are a really lot of highly skilled and intelligent posters in the main forum but they have to deal with all the immature people in that forum. I am surprised how well the snowpack held up today. As some have said I believe it is because of the multi layers of snow and some of the hard freezes. I didn't post a yardstick beofe the first storm so I don't have an official measurement but I would say we still have 10+ inches of snowpack.

Seems like a lot of the folks there made their way over from the Accuwx forums after being banned/shunned/told off. You just gotta get in and post during school hours. It seems like tolerance of baseless posts/misinformation has increased from the days of Eastern but who knows. The NAM completely backed off tomorrow's snows, suggesting that if we're lucky, we might see some flurries reach the ground. Not good when your go-to amped-up/wet model leaves you high and dry.

snywx Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Amazing the difference in snow cover from here in Harlem to the frozen tundra of the HV lol.. A few inches at most here while many areas are still well over a foot up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chietanen Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Still a lot of snow cover up here after the warm up. Would be great to get a little refresher but nothing too exciting on the horizon for the upcoming week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I was on the north shore of LI today and as the sun was setting they had made it through another day without losing their snowpack. I was pretty surprised because it was t shirt weather down there today. Everything along the NS Pkwy from the Cross Island out to Huntington was still nearly 100% cover, a few sunny spots had torched off but otherwise still good. Here it's still hovering near a foot. Hopefully it cools down quickly tonight and we don't keep losing it for much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're at about 6-7 "...elevation is playing a role, up on top of my hill ive lost more than down in the valley (though i started with a bit more so we're at about the same now).

Juliancolton Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Things might be getting interesting wrt the early week system. Dryslot/warm sector seem to be the main concerns but hey, it's something to track. Euro printed out 8-12" from Orange and Putnam northwestward.

Pitmaster Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Heavy snow here at the moment - about a quarter inch new on the ground. Temp 21F Very wintry looking out there- even if we only get an inch lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitmaster Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Mostly sunny here lol.. I must have been in the jackpot lol Didn't last too long- but that was the 3rd heavy squall we've had since early this morning. Partly cloudy now. I wouldn't mind one more big storm this season- but if not I'm cool with it. Been a great winter- still have over a foot on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Euro prints out 1" to 1 1/3" QPF for all with subfreezing sfc temps the entire event, though the 850 freezing line briefly surges to a line from about Goshen to Springfield, Mass before collapsing south again. Snow maps show 10-12". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I take it this is the Monday system- right? The storm thread has become comical. Yeah, and agreed. It's bad enough when folks argue over which model to ride, but this is just pages and pages of disputing what the same model showed! It's not a good thing when all of your most vocal posters have minimal knowledge on the technical side of meteorology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a good thing when all of your most vocal posters have minimal knowledge on the technical side of meteorology. Yeah - everyone wants it to show snow for their area. There isn't much point in over analyzing one run when we know 5 days is a lifetime in terms of sensible forecasting. It will continue to change over the next few days. So all the sniping is much ado about nothing for now. In the meantime the value of that thread has devolved into entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
