1/23-24/16 #1 All Time KNYC Snowfall-please add Obs, Accums, Pics

[BxWeatherwatcher]

just came in from a measurement and it's almost impossible to get a accurate one,but i did measure over 16 inches here in the northern bronx,honestly though it looks like it's more then that.i've been in intense 1-3 inch per hr bands since 6 a.m and moderate snow before that.i saw a 20 inch reading in pelham n.y which is not far at all from my location,so it's quite possible that i'm near 18-20 inches already. 

[SleetStormNJ]

Approaching 19 inches here in Kenilworth NJ. Seems verifiable based on similar locations nearby.

Anyone with Thundersnow yet?

I heard a report of thundersnow in Branchburg.

Is the Rap showing 12-18 additional? I was planning on shoveling the driveway. Looks like I'm calling a front end loader.

[Organizing Low]

New Rap has 12-18 more inches for NYC. Wow.

 

 

looking at the radar, id agree, probably a good foot or thereabouts

[ag3]

Can't see how all of NYC metro doesn't tack on another 8"-14" on top of the 15"-20" that's already fallen.

[ForestHillWx]

Superstorm93 fantastic work by the way. The information you have been posting is stellar. Cheers to everyone on this board. Epic storm.

Some hints the band in N NJ is nudging SE. 

 

Here in Austin, 51 and not a cloud in the sky. The palm trees across the street from me are rustling a little bit.

Just spoke to family in Long Beach and it's pretty much bedlam-complete whiteout. My street is essentially impassable.

with 0.13" of precip. between 1-2pm the total should be 16" as of 2pm...

Check out the convection over NE PA

What a image for the records for sure

[LnbWx]

Bergen county seem to be stuck in a hole between 2 bands. yet still snowing at a pretty good clip. Would love that band setup over here.

[Superstorm93]

Volume shot of the death band. 

 

Up to 20kft in some places

 

Anyone who is worrying about snow growth, you will be saved by this.

"Eye" starting to appear on satellite east of Chincoteague on the Delmarva.

lol good post

 

 

I'm in Ottawa Canada, cloudless artic blue sky with sun reflecting brightly off the snowpack.

 

 

enjoying this storm from a distance, but secretly wishing I had made the trek to the city....

Heavy blowing snow. Close to the heaviest snow I've seen all day.

Measuring this snow is kind of difficult. I think my earlier measurement of 13" was too high at the time, but it'd be more accurate now. Currently coming down moderately.

Want to trade places? My small palm tree sure isnt rustling underneath all this snow.

[Superstorm93]

Perfect example of why you want the 700mb low to your south

 

[SnowBlitzkrieg]

spots of Long Island now upped to 24-30"

Yeah same here clouds are a darker shade of gray now

Absolutely, I'd love to.

 

My brother told me a little while ago that visibility was so low that he could barely see across the street. I've only seen that a couple of times-the death band on 1/27/11 and Boxing Day 2010. So this is up there among the best.

Looks like a snowhole developing over parts of NYC?

[weatherpruf]

ABC just reported a guy fishing from a pier in Nassau near Reynolds Channel. Gotta love those striped bass fanatics.

[WintersGrasp]

That RAP run was a couple hours ago. Newest RAP (18z) shows about 6-8" more, given a 10:1 ratio. I think I'll be getting into this heavy snow band in the next 20 minutes as it builds and spreads east towards NYC. Hopefully will be 2"/hour!!

[jm1220]

Looks like a little bit of a subsidence area is popping up east of the band, over Staten Island and Monmouth County.

Getting just silly here

Just measured an average of 18", picked up 5" in last 1.5 hours.  Looks like the megaband is shifting SE so may top out around 20-22" here.  Great storm!
