Probably more like super lazy mom that's allergic to things like shoveling. Boy is it coming down now, flake size is much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Wet Snow Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 From what I see on the radar and the newest model runs is it's not warm air that will be the problem down here but simple fact that precip is moving to north and there's not much qpf anymore. Nam and hrrr are pretty dry down here and radar supports heavier rates going north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar def supports heaviest echoes going well north of my latitude, not speaking for ulster county but radar looks to be pretty dry down here after this initial slug and hrrr and nam supports that. 3 k and 4 k are a bit better tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishRob17 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 1.7" here, just finished shoveling, much easier than on Thursday when I constantly had slush stuck to the shovel thanks to the warm ground to start. Snow just rolling off the shovel so far today. Oh, Billy, not sure your method for LE mentioned in the main thread would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still 24* with very light E winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Dumpin' again. Good flake size, wind is moving around from ESE to ENE but very light and still holding at 24*. Busting high? I think so What are the chances of that upper level warm push still happening this afternoon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 2.9" in heavy snow now. I was surprised to see Upton lowers me down to 1-3" today when I worke up and now see they upped it to 3-5" today. Not sure why they went lower overnight in the first place.

Yeah, Albany docked me in the overnight shift as well... couldn't really tell if it was p-type or QPF worries. I think a lot of us should still hit 6" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Vis just dropped to less than 2 blocks and flake size jumped. Off to the races Looks like the back edge is moving through central PA now but there will be another quick round overnight as the front moves through. Am I reading that right?

gravitylover Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I noticed that too. Looks like the low is filling in so maybe there won't be a back edge until the whole system moves out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPcantmeasuresnow Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 2.7 inches so far. 26.2 and back to moderate snow down from heavy, smaller flakes now too. This thing has a mind of its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 If it snowed like it is now until 8PM in the Town of Newburgh, we would have 18"+. Radar drying out quick to the West. Hopefully we will get some spinning action and freeze the eastward progression before its too late. Maybe asking for a bit much there though.
