Ababa Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Congrats to Suffolk county.....only winner on this forum. They should have called this storm nemo jr. Instead of Juno. Looks like about 5 or 6 outside my window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like about 5 or 6 outside my window. Total disappointment here in Westchester...I think I have 5.5" in Dobbs Ferry. Never have gotten past 15-20dbz on radar while the mega band continues to slam CT and Suffolk County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liwxfan Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Yes..one thing this storm is lacking that Nemo had is the thunder and lightning. Almost every cpl of mins at a time during Nemo. Hoping this band can keep coming just a lil more west then stall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping this band can keep coming just a lil more west then stall! See this is what are neighbor from Selden with the Cotton Mather avatar (someone probably post 17th century New England actually I would think) was talking about...the lack of a nice band...well we did have it...though it looks a little more ragged than it did an hour ago...might re energize, might not...

NorthShoreWx Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Oh its energized alrighty...but does seem to have consolidated back a little further east. Riverhead must be getting rocked. Despite that, viz here has been frequently less than 100 yards for the past hour or so. It's like looking out into a thick fog. Looks like about 11" on the snow stake, of which 9" would be from this storm. We had 5" as of midnight. Despite 1/4 mile or less viz since then, can't seem to get good rates, although the last hour was at least 1.5" Killer band seems to be setting up from Riverhead to Worcester to Portsmouth. There's your jackpot in the making. EDIT: PS its down to 20F here, so can't blame the surface temps for the rates. The highest temp since the snow started falling early Monday morning was 26.

WaPo Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Looks like the storm may be over for W. Nassau in just a few hours. Here in Wantagh it seems like there's about 10-12 inches on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L.I.Pete Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Difference between this storm and 2013 in this area is that the killer band is ~40 miles east. We had one of those overhead for hours in that storm. Interesting to see if that heavy stuff can make it back west over time—Twin Forks getting destroyed right now.

Glad to see you Peter and not a minute too soon...we need somebody to move that band just back this way...I've got some rope...and some extension cords too...maybe a laso???

NorthShoreWx Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 19 here with what I want to call heavy snow, but it is accumulating very poorly. It is heavy enough that when there are lulls in the wind, viz is still no better than 1/4 mile, but such small crappy flakes. I guess the wind is shredding them. I don't have an anemometer, but I'm pretty sure we are verifying the blizzard warning, Any one driving through an open area probably is in a complete whiteout and I don't see how it would even be possible to know if you were still on the road. Sound Avenue must be absolutely impossible ( and probably impassable) with the band that is rocking Hampton Bays, KFOK, Riverhead and the north fork. That's where there might be 2 feet. I think it will make at least a foot here eventually, but it may be difficult to get much more than that unless some good bands linger well past 7am.

Rjay Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 My visibility is 1/4 mile or less but I really don't want to call this sn+. I'm under very light echos too. This is sort of odd. So sn/blowing snow, 22f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on this is if the area around here gets to 20 inches then the whole mess is salvaged just like March 2001 was (though that was more like a 15 inch threshold)...I mean who can complain about a 20 inch snowstorm?

NorthShoreWx Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 We are under roughly 25dbz echos, so not necessarily light, just poor accumulators. On the other hand I just noticed how deep the snow is all around my car and I may have to revise my estimate upward once I can poke around with the measuring stick. I have 2 snow stakes in good representative locations, but maybe not with this wind, The 5" at midnight was measured. Since then I've just watched accumulations creep up the snowstakes excruciatingly slowly despite visibilities consistently very low. I know there is tons of blowing snow, but there also seems to be a lot of falling snow that just isn't building up much. Agree with Pammy, despite my observations above, still a very good storm with probably some high totals nearby. Not to mention it is a fine example of a true blizzard. Now I've got to get a couple hours sleep before work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
