wdrag Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 528A update: OKX snow forecast remains the same this morning. Small chance NYC record 1/2" of snow...southern part of LI should have less snow than than the north. Otherwise forecast looks fairly close from yesterday. Not sure if nw NJ can exceed 3"? I think best chance spotty max 5-6" is I84 or northward, high terrain Catskills to northern CT high terrain. Take whatever we can get. Hope NYC can muster some measurable snow early this morning around sunrise or shortly after. Snow begins 2A-5A west of the Hudson River to the Poconos and Catskills; then thereafter across CT by 730AM. NYC snow at daybreak may accumulate 1/2-1" before quitting and/or changing to rain midday then may end briefly as snow toward sunset. The snow over nw NJ through se NYS and CT may accumulate as much as 6 inches in a few high terrain spots but most of the snow fall should be in the range of 3-5" there. South of I-78 in NJ, to I-I95 a period of snow tomorrow morning may change to freezing rain or rain before tapering off in the afternoon with Trace to 2" accumulations. Untreated roads along and south of I-80 and LI may be briefly slushy in the morning before melting begins. Hilly area untreated secondary roads to the nw to n and ne of NYC will be a bit slippery at times. Snow, especially during the morning commute could result in some accidents and travel delays, especially hill towns. There might be a few school districts in the hilly areas with in-person classes that may close at the last minute, especially se NYS and far nw NJ. Graphics are the OKX snow forecast and the chance of greater than 1" as issued at 330PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Good morning! Snowing hard, upper end of moderate. As mentioned above densely packed small flakes so it's a nice thick coating accumulating fairly quickly. Not like the last two storms because the flakes are smaller but over 1" already with visibility around 1200 feet. It's cold and fluffy. 19/17/E1/SN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rclab Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Dark and gloomy over the postage stamp. I thought I saw a few stray flakes. Either that or the tenant is shaking the dust mop out the 3rd floor window again. As always ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Oops, put this in the discussion thread not the obs thread - 20/18/E1/SN but the intensity is wavering between light and moderate, flake size is tiny and visibility is decent at the moment. Looks to be approaching 3" as the sat antenna on my truck is 2.6" high and is covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPcantmeasuresnow Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Highland Mills in Orange County 1.8 inches and the snow has become light flurries. Temperature 20.3°. If this is it models were pretty bad with this. Most had it snowing here until early afternoon with about 4 inches expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairfield did not close here and it looks like a good call. Most around here went to remote learning today vs an actual closure. We got about 1.5 inches but it has ended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmendevils8204 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Haven't seen a flake in Little Falls, New Jersey (southern Passaic County, bordering Essex County). Not complaining, given how much we've seen lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
