I was thinking more on how this evolves or shifts over time in relationship to the summer US ridge pattern. Very tough to make a guess until we see the precip and pressure distribution later spring and early summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Interesting ride into the city just now. I had snow on my lawn still in wantagh. As soon as we got past bellmore there was no snow anywhere despite areas to my west yesterday reporting more snow. This makes me question the 2.7” wantagh report. I wasn’t there to measure but it seems either that number was low or the reports west were high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recognize that. Still think it's cool. Same is true for astrophotography - you'd never see all those stars with the naked eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NycStormChaser Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Vibrance increased a bit not saturation. Digital cameras produce a very flat image when shooting in raw which requires editing. Naturally it does not look this vibrant in person but no Aurora photo you see online really does either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the more bizarre snowfall distributions I have seen around here yesterday. I actually believe some of the western LI 10 - 11 inch reports that were surrounded by less than half of that. Plus, that "dark band" along the immediate north shore is real. A friend of mine lives on the beach in Northport and got 0". I am a mile from the sound and got 6". Another friend of mine plows in the St James and Nissequoge area. He was plowing one account with well over 6" of snow, then went to another less than 3 miles away and there was zilch. All 4 of these locations are marked up (very roughly) on the map below. An LI snowfall map for this one would be insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southampton had more snow than even the next town over on each side. They must have had one hell of a snow band positioned over them. I'll take photos on my way back once it's daylight although I'm sure a lot melted. It took me 3 hours to get out here. Winds are gusting to 30 but there's not a cloud in the sky and all the stars are out. I'll post photos tomorrow. Wow it truly was like lake effect then.

And also is it me or does the western part of the north fork and the adjacent north shore look like they got the most snow, not Southampton?

It's not as bad if someone post it on their Facebook / Instagram story I suppose but why show a half ass shot that's not finished. Most people shoot in Raw and not Jpeg.

It's actually quite helpful to let others know when a substorm is ongoing by sharing a back of camera shot in real time. Sort of an unwritten rule of aurora chasing that you try to report from the field if you have mobile coverage. I guess the picture isn't strictly necessary, but it's fun sometimes... akin to the celebratory posting you see here when the snow is epic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
