Drove from Wading river to hauppauge this morning and looked like an inch or less the whole way. Grass is sticking through at the rinx in hauppauge.

ag3 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 If the "trained spotter" from Whitestone is here, not sure how in the hell you measured 3.1". 3.1" was on pavement. That's not how you measure snow. I have a professional snow board setup. Multiple ones. In 3 spots. All 3 measured 4.7", 5.2", 4.8" Matching KLGA and KNYC. Stop sending in reports to Upton if you don't know how to measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate how they represent the CT shoreline when their totals are always 20% below what they really are. Anyways 6.0 for Easton CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame Upton just takes "trained spotters" reports and accepts them over mine. I have given them hundreds of accurate reports over the last 15+ years that almost always match KLGA and when they don't match, it's because LGA was suffering from borderline temps. I have 3 SEPARATE snow board setups on my 80' x 120' lot. No one has a more accurate portrayal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ag3 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Even right now, after a night of compaction, all 3 of my snow boards read, 4.3", 4.6" and 4.5". Sidewalk still has 2.8"-3.1" in 3 spots I measured. Whitestone "trained spotter", stop sending in reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morris Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I look at it this way. We got 20% of our average annual snowfall yesterday. It was December 9. Kudos Paul on the completely accurate reading of the modeling. In the temps, wetbulb, ratios and accumulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Solid 4-6" widespread storm on LE between 0.4 and 0.5 Great job by the models for this one, it gives me hope for future storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you live down south where the modeling greatly under estimated the snowfall amounts (not that we would complain too much if that happened up here lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Never got a chance to measure yesterday. I eyeballed something in the neighborhood of 2.5 inches, but that isn’t a real measurement, and doesn’t account for compaction. My true total should be identical to Paragon’s.

Fantom X Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 1.5" here - but only on car tops/decks- no pavement accumulation and even the grass only had about an inch. temp stayed around 32.5 most of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow map shows the sharp cutoff just to your east. 4.5” + from dix Hills north and Commack west. You were on the border. Setauket reported 3.5”, and centerport 4.8” (before the final band). The nw suffolk border was probably close to 6”. I was up there around 5 pm and there was already 3.5”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowBlitzkrieg Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I have to wonder WTF Upton was seeing last night when they predicted an additional 4-6 inches for the western two thirds of Suffolk at 4pm. we ended up with barely 2" here and most of it fell before 4pm.
