I don’t know why people don’t understand this phenomenon. URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT. NYC and most of the 5 boroughs up to Yonkers, and west into immediate NE Jersey. Too much concrete. Simple!! Doesn’t explain why we snowed when Rockland county mixed. It’s not just that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCweatherNOW Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 It’s funny I drove to mount Vernon and it was snowing heavily I came back to the Bronx it was just alerting with some mangled flakes. I didn’t get that, temperature was also 29 there and 32 in the Bronx. I’m sure places to the north got a bit more on this last batch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The road conditions changed dramatically almost on que near the bronx/yonkers line. I'm right at the border and its above freezing and been a mix for the last half hour but it seems a bit to my north temps are still below freezing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixing with rain. temp 32.9 I'm happy to see that Long Island got into some of the accumulating snow. My sister had 1.5" in Suffolk County. Others on the the North Shore had more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interior areas torched between 850 mb and 700 mb. Even the Poconos had sleet with temperatures in the teens this afternoon. The further east/north you got the colder you were aloft in that critical zone....especially on LI and CT (even if your surface was closer to 32). Had about 2 inches of snow and sleet IMBY. Then nasty freezing rain with temps. stuck in the 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flew down to FL today (stuck 90mins extra when the snow started at JFK), so of course this was going to do well for us. Good to see a decent event for once this winter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a feeling we will get a good period in February into March with a big storm. Don’t know why I think that. I just think there's enough Niñoish type background state to pull it off 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Park....2.1 Brings the seasonal to 4.8 and leaves them 12.9 inches short of getting to a 30 inch average for the 1991-2020 period. Very doable.

More snow had fallen since that time at BDR. Unfortunately, the snow is about to come to an end there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
