Yeah it kind of looks like I might see that slot but I'm thinking it stops at Mt Beacon/Stormville Mt area so you guys may just lose some intensity but keep accumulating. I went to a sleet/pellet mix a few minutes ago but there's still a lot of snow too and it's all pouring down and piling up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The dry slot is close, snow lightening up a good bit, the radar looks like it could fill in quickly here though. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eduggs Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Most guidance, possibly excluding hires models, have the heavy stuff winding down by 18z. 20"+ reports popping up in the BGM PNS. Mostly unconfirmed. Not sure the widespread 2-2.5" LE has/will verify. Doubt the ratios were better than 10:1 overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Looks like the pivot is underway. Hopefully that nw side pulls back down soon and drives this sleet out of here. It's still snowing pretty hard but the sleet is significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eduggs Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 FWIW, it looks like the 12z GFS has less than .1" LE in NJ after 17z. And only .1-.4 in the HV. I hope it's wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's wrong. I think some of us are probably within sight of our final totals. A general 15-20" in the valley as we all expected before the models started going ape with 3" QPF and 10"/hr snowfall rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eduggs Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The storm's not over by any means so any summation is premature, but it's pretty clear the best mid-level forcing ended up well NW. I suspect final total QPF will be in the 1.5 - 2" range with roughly 10:1 ratios. Great storm but ultimately probably slightly less snow than short term guidance indicated. I expect some 25-30" totals in NEPA, SNY, and possibly up towards the Capital District. They will probably end up with similar QPF but better ratios.

eduggs Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 It looks like the Scranton-Wilkes Barre area slightly overperformed and the BGM are significantly overperformed model consensus. NNJ, SENY, and NW CT slightly underperformed. The final CCB band could have a potent stinger, however. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, had 4 inches from 930 to 1030 but that was really the only epic hour of this storm. Had a 50 gust too. Thought it would last longer. Have 12 on ground and I'm dry slotted, very light sleet falling, hoping Rgem and HRR verify which still focus a heavy band over the river in a bit.
