meh should of would of could of, im not too sold on a curl around.  looks to be 6-7” total here in yonkers.

We got slotted. I didn’t expect a jackpot but I thought we’d top 10 inches. I got 7 and snow-growth has been crap since 10 PM.  Meh.  

Once you get slotted like this it’s takes forever for the column to re saturate.

The supermarkets were packed yesterday because the media was hyping this once again by saying a major snowstorm is on the way for NYC. 

The mayor even closed the  schools lol

The models all had it right. The mets just stuck to their guns like usual. I'll never forget March '17 when they called for 24-36 inches all the way through when it was painfully obvious that sleet would take over early.

Still snowing in Brooklyn Heights.  Yeah it could have been more, but warning-criteria snows have been few and far between over the past decade and this is more than I saw all winter last year, so I’m grateful for it.  Hopefully there’s more to come!

Few and far between the last decade?

I count 15, and this one will make 16 since 2010. That's not bad for any major city. I think I even missed a few.

Pivotal maps were right 

Wxbell maps were wrong

When I saw the warm nose in the soundings late yesterday, I figured this was going to happen. I think I mentioned it to you. The models always underestimate mid-level warming and how far north it goes with the LLJ punching in. The mid-level low’s positions aren’t  exactly stellar either. The CAD has definitely been impressive though
