All time great game

There was the US vs Costa Rica game in the snowstorm in March 2013 I think; CR thought it was a blizzard, the locals  were like no this is just CO in the spring; they had to shovel the field at halftime. CR later tried to have the result ( they lost ) overturned ( they lost ). Soccer in the snow is a whole nother kettle of fish from football in the snow....

Looks like nyc will have 15 inches of snow by 10pm . The heavy returns on radar are east of the models and going north up i95 . Pa is gona get less than we are.

Down to 30º here in Copiague. Wet bulb is at 24º.

Surface temps are not going to be the issue. The temps aloft are... and they not working in our favor. The models have shown this, and looking to our south, they are sniffing this thing out. I say, you need to be West of EWR to enjoy all snow here.

The snow will come down 3 inches per hour 23z to 04z. It won't matter if we change over.

Where is he/she getting these high totals? I'm not hearing that elsewhere; I'm hearing 6-8 maybe 10 if all goes right. And maybe if it goes wrong 2-4.

Here it comes

[shadowsintherain]

Anyone know where the low is right now? Got a map?

Could be snowing in LGA/JFK by 1945-2000z but we have to see how the shield evolves as it gets north of Sandy Hook where there is always more dry air in the mid levels from the NE flow off land vs C-S NJ

Yep

 4-8 is a good bet for  Brooklyn.  Hopefully we get more.

This is the wall of snow approaching from my south.

Same here in Wading River  -  there's reason for optimism and pessimism but we'll soon see.

Used to drive out there to visit clients at a home for troubled youth. One really nice park with a ton of fish. Not that I was fishing on the clock or anything....

I'm from LI and yet it just occurred to me - 'Miller' place?  I wonder if being named after snowstorm types angers or pleases the snow gods.

It has definitely pleased them more often then not the last 15 years that’s for sure! Hoping to keep them appeased this time around.

[nycsnow]

Should be snowing in Staten Island and by me soon if radar is correct
