Question for you guys with encyclopedic historical knowledge. A friend of mine says he remembers an event in the mid-2000s that dropped 8" of sleet in Armonk. Anybody know which storm that might have been?

The day before st Patrick's day 2007 dropped an all sleet storm. 5-7" so maybe that's the one. VD day 2007 had sleet too but snow to the north

Remarkably, the CFS shows just 5 AN days out of the next 30.   The last days of the month look AN and might keep March from being the lowest temperature month of the cold season.  The task is to stay below the 38.0degs. average of Jan.   Last time this happened is March 1960, I think.

Anyone else notice a tendency for the Euro to be too far SE or suppressed with East Coast lows since the January 15 blizzard that it had too far west? Seems like that was the last time that it had the snows too far NW. It was too suppressed with the January 16 blizzard last year when much heavier snowfall totals verified across the region. The next storm in early February was better forecast by the UKMET that wasn't as suppressed and the heavier UKMET snowfall totals verified. We just saw a repeat with the blizzard this week where the Euro and EPS were too far SE with the low and didn't really catch on until 0z and 12z day of the storm. But the EPS means continue to do great with placement of 500 mb anomaly centers days 5 and beyond. The weeklies even have been showing some skill out to week 3 at times this winter.

In State College it was about 6" of snow followed by 3" of sleet followed by 3" of snow on the back end. It froze solid at the end, a lot like this stuff now, but even more of it. Shoveling it was like scooping up goopy concrete.

This is how you lose your snowpack in Long Beach very quickly. Classic Long Beach iceberg effect when the coastal flooding came in.
