Manny Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Was All snow, then snow/sleet, now bigger flakes again. This battle between Snow and sleet is making for some fairly nasty conditions out there. Winds are pretty good, and walking in that heavy mix is tough. Still looks awesome!

RU848789 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 NWS in Upton just dropped/reduced most of the winter weather headlines for NYC eastward. from 18-24" in Orange/Putnam/WPassaic to 2-4" in Suffolk County and just a WWAdvisory for NYC. Sucks. National Weather Service New York NY 814 AM EDT Tue Mar 14 2017 .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Storm racing NNE faster than expected - pushing warmer air aloft in faster than expected as well. Low is near Ocean City MD (just inland) at 12z. Based on this - have cancelled all winter headlines for Long Island, except N Nassau. Have changed NYC, along with N Nassau, Hudson and coastal SE CT to a winter weather advisory. Converted interior SE CT, coastal SW CT, S Westchester and E portions of NE NJ to a Winter Storm Warning. Blizzard warning remains in effect elsewhere. Snow totals remain 18-24 inches across Orange, Putnam and W Passaic down to 2 to 4 inches across Suffolk County (already has fallen). Expect rain to push into advisory areas this morning and a change over to sleet and possibly rain in Winter Storm warning areas. SE portions of Blizzard Warning area could see some sleet mix in as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about 5.5" when it started (sleet had compacted the 5.5" of snow I had before that) and was 6.5" 20 min later - that's 3" per hour. Now back to a 50-50 mix of snow/sleet, but very heavy. Maybe we can get to 12" here if this keeps up. It's all heavy sleet now. Not gonna get the job done. I went out and cleaned because I am not getting injured cleaning rain infused sleet and snow.

RDRY Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 You want to know how impossible a storm like this was to forecast for the city? All of the models print out precip types that often verify but are still inaccurate. Regular radar returns have shown snow for Queens for the past two hours, but it's been sleet. So technically, the models were right - they simply lack the sophistication to see these micro-level atmospheric phenomena. Of course, that's where forecasting comes into play.

TheSnowman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Why isn't anyone talking about HOW many inches per hour were in this??

Latest HRRR run shows NYC and points west will remain frozen precip still with 12"+ accumulations I dunno. We had sleet here for an hour or two in Tarrytown ... nw of NYC in Westchester. That could cut our totals down. Will have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
