RCNYILWX Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Is this that infamous storm where ACY wound up with a major blizzard at 20 inches and KNYC wound up with 20 flurries and areas as near as S.I had 3-6? Yup that was the famous Snowmageddon for DC, Baltimore and Philly. If I'm not mistaken the largest snow gradient on record between NYC and PHL in a single storm. ~20" at PHL, T at NYC.

SnoSki14 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thank god we got something from 2/6/10 being just south of SI, it's better than a trace for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neblizzard Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 how could anyone look at this radar image and not think nyc is about to get nailed I remember the NAM showed the precip cutoff just SW of NYC for consecutive runs. It nailed that storm in the short range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 2/6/10 happens when you wish for blocking and you get too much blocking and too much of a -NAO. So a -NAO and blocking pattern is not always a good thing. A lot of New England got screwed that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SNfreak21 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Excruciating & disappointing. Let's wishcast that something like this does not happen again . There was a massive 50/50 low further south than its ideal position that suppressed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 2/6 was the one time long beach did way better then the rest of the area (long island) with several inches of wind blown powder (hard to measure) 7 miles Ne at my current local nada As interesting as that storm is its a horrible analog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherpruf Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 The nam nailed it the GFS with it's lower resolution was much further north, nobody ever bought the nam would be correct as a matter of fact most thought the GFS would verify too far south hence upton going 3-5 for NYC but being unsure since it could be nothing or double that Some mets posted maps with Middlesex co of 8-12, in the end southern Middlesex did alright, but northern was only a couple inches. It was painful. A few days later we got a foot or so.Indeed central NJ was in the shaft zone most of that winter, but what a shaft...3 storms over a foot!

SnowGoose69 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I was working at OKX that day and also remember looking at the NAM with forecasters leading up to the event and wondering if it could be right with that insane cutoff. As a snow lover, it was pretty painful to experience with good bands up to the immediate south shore of LI, southern BK, SI and Union County NJ and heavy snow in Monmouth County. The vertically pointing radar at Stony Brook University had at least a 9hr long virga storm, with only a few periods where the snow survived through the dry layer. NYC conceivably could have ended up over 50" that February if not for the near miss on 2/6/10. At the time many thought it cost us the 95-96 record but I don't think so, we'd have needed 25 inches or so from it which with even a 80-100 mile shift we may not have gotten probably would have fallen just short.

Let's wishcast that something like this does not happen again . One of the surprises was how bad Pitt got nailed; this was one huge system and it just sat there. Broke snowfall records that Philly and DC will likely not see for a century, and eclipsing NYC's 96 with room to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDMK6GLI Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I see a west based nao showing up on the models before the event. Interesting. end of the week threat? that thing may be our encore for the winter. cold air really isn't there but imagine if that thing we're to bomb out it would pull down some cold and with a "progged" west based -nao that would be a big help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
