it's our winter

 

What an eerily familiar quote out of the past...lol...3.0 inches new Port Jeff @ 4:30 PM  16.5 on the ground. Less than half an inch away from a 50 inch winter here (49.6).

I live in Sheepshead Bay as well and have well over 3" so far. It's safe to say I will have a total snow/sleet accumulation of about 4" when all is said and done. Curious question: why do your snowfall measurements often have a low bias? Anthony (Snow88) lives in Sheepshead Bay as well and has over 31" for this season? How can you still be at only 26"?

My reports are exactly what I measure. I use a white plastic picnic table. I also take a few measurements from my neighbors wood patio deck fencing. It may be a little close to the house though and sheltered but on a day like today when there is no wind that should not make a difference. I honestly don't see more than a max of 2 inches out here on colder surfaces

North of Central Park is the place to be. It's been all snow here in Upper Manhattan. A nice powder too.

18z RGEM is snowy...especially for LI...with 6 - 8 inches there (assuming 10:1 ratios)...but that is from 18z (1:00 PM)..so since snow started before...the overall amounts could be a drop higher.

And there it goes, its dying again, pushed further north this time across ERN NJ than it did Brooklyn or Queens but appears again to be stalling or going south

Yup...sleet is starting to transition back to snow once again in southern Manhattan.

Here is the $%^& part it is in the mid 20`s in CNJ with reports of FRZ . Look at how much precip is yet to swing through with those BLs .

That could be an ugly night before they can play beat the clock and see if they get out of the hole .

N of 80 , it`s on . http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/northeast_loop.php

Agree Paul. This could get really ugly this evening. Hopefully people stay inside.

Extremely pretty, pristine, & picturesque in Port Jeff as we approach twilight; daytime snow is far and away preferable to nightime snow.

RGEM IS WAY OUT TO LUNCH ON THIS ONE...HERE IS ITS 18Z RUN

 

 

 

That's for 7 PM...not out of the question the line could recede a few miles south by then.

Are some people actually measuring or just adding random totals in there head based on eyeball obs lol... Anyway 3 different measurements here all came in at 3.3"

I'm actually reporting my snowfall on nearby locations. I'm pretty much somewhere around that. That 5" report that I reported was a bit to high.

not really too off,maybe 15-20 mile diff on placement of the rain/snow line..but the northern parts of the city are getting it good currently.so all bets are off with a low in that position.
