Just to set expectations about how rare this would be...

There have been a total of fourteen 6"+ snowstorms after March 15 at KNYC since records began in 1869.

The last one was 24 years ago.

There has never been a foot+ and only four have been over 10".

We should be thrilled if we get 2-3".

1875-04-12 - 10.0"
1890-03-19 - 6.0"
1892-03-17 - 8.0"
1915-04-03 - 10.2"
1917-04-08 - 6.5"
1924-04-01 - 8.5"
1938-04-06 - 6.4"
1944-04-05 - 6.5"
1956-03-16 - 6.7"
1956-03-18 - 11.6"
1958-03-20 - 11.8"
1967-03-22 - 9.0"
1982-04-06 - 9.6"

What r u guys looking at? Euro drops low end warning snows from central NJ THROUGH NYC and Long Island? Am I missing something

I understand AllSnow's comment about it being weak, but it does develop as it moves North, and the area still sees some decent snows. I would think that it's 2-4 or 3-5" verbatim.

Agree. It really develops to late for us and even then it's not that powerful. It was a pretty meh run for a late season storm

Well said. It's enough of an improvement to keep us intrigued for the 0Z runs tonight.

 

Wonder what the previous snowfall record was around the area after the first 80 degree readings of spring?
