If that happened at 7pm rather than noon time, it would have accumulated on the pavement. That's a fact. Where are you located ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the system play out. Sun is going down and the snow will start sticking better. Long ways to go for this one. Like I said, not saying it's over, but if it doesn't redevelop then it absolutely is. Otherwise, don't know what radar you're looking at or what window you're looking out of. Admire your adamant loyalty to optimism though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This banter about the "sun angle" reminded me of that thermometer I buried. It's reading 37 degrees. Air temp is 36. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jims Videos Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Dry air is a storm killer. Dave Curren now lowering potential totals. I knew we were in trouble especially for Western NJ when the sun was coming out at 11 am in Princeton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravity Wave Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Even if the banding and accumulation doesn't improve around sunset, the real losers of this storm are EPA (widespread 4-8 and 6-10 calls which turned into virtually nothing). Even CNY fell a little short of expectations with a widespread 8-12 rather than the 10-16 which had been forecasted. SNE is at risk of a pretty significant bust as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJO812 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Still snowing pretty good here in Brooklyn. Roads and sidewalks are starting to become slushy with cars getting covered. We should get accumulations once it gets dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it was dumb of me to bring up sun angle, but then you say your snow is starting to accumulate because the sun is going down. Too funny. I am in Piscataway NJ. We had a few hours of HEAVY snow earlier today but in mainly just accumulated on colder surfaces. The pavement stayed wet for a long time, and then just a slushy dusting. If it was night it would have EASILY accumulated on pavement. But it was middle of the day (sun angle), the pavement had residual warmth and it was 1 degree above freezing. So unfortunately we lost a lot of accumulation. Now we're going into night but radar doesn't look good. The bands have shifted north and east of here. I wish we could have gotten that heavy band at night. It came down SO heavily here early afternoon, but we don't have much to show for it. Frustrating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJO812 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 The ull didnt even go under the city yet. The precip rates should increase when that does. I better get a few inches tonight I stayed up every night for the Euro and then woke up at 7am for the overnight models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishmick9 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 About 6.5 inches in Vernon Valley. Several large branches down. 30 foot tree just came down in yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kat5hurricane Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 It snowed hard for about half an hour in midtown, started to see some slush on the roads and it has lightened up considerably since. It looks like the lower end of totals will verify. Not that I'm complaining, the last thing I wanted was a repeat of last years' nightmare November snowstorm commute.

cleetussnow Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Radar returns are unimpressive. I’d say we are close to done up here in central Westchester. Dry slotted. Wet 2.5 inches here is all. Interesting storm, but overall the models struggled at best. Light mist 33 right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 30/29/ENE freezing mist and snow grains. I have a little over a half inch of frozen material since the beginning of the event that's slowly getting covered with snow. Everything is coated in .2-.3" of ice. You know that crackly sound you get under high power lines? That's what it sounds like outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
