OBS and nowcast for a widespread 2-6" event significant impact event, mainly midnight-Noon Friday morning January 7, 2022

[dmillz25]

Definitely about 5” here

[Brasiluvsnow]

I just measured and New City is at just about 3 1/2 inches right now 

[wdrag]

Hope everyone is happy... it is beautiful. Nothing for me to add today-you have it covered. Overall thread works with ending times, and post event scattered snow showers or flurries as the sharpening 5H trough passes through this afternoon. Wantage Nj at least 1.5" but I95 corridor has bounty!! Yay!

New ICE thread starts by 630AM for Sunday to include NYC.

Belated seasons greetings from Carteret!

We kinda lucked out in a few bands,6 is def in play. Parts of CT are near a foot..I don't think any model had that much snow for them and even us tbh and it's still snowing. Lol

That's years of warming Atlantic waters amping up the moisture content.

And this is a rather disjointed & relatively weak fast moving coastal.

Next time a strong consolidated miller A/B storm occurs many places will easily see 2 feet.

Light occasionally moderate snow over the last hour. 2.5" OTG. Looks like some good stuff may be about to push in here.

You are right with the above average sst's its really not hard to squeeze out alot of moisture esp when cold air is around. Clashes make for alot of snow lol..btw we might get a ivt feature developing behind this band..enhancing the backend snows so it's not over yet. Let's see if we make a run at 7+ inches.its still snowing hard atm..

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

2.8 inches as of 6AM. 25° moderate snow.

The last hour 1.0 inch even. If just being on the edge of the heavy bands got me that it must be heaven for you guys in the middle of it.

This band means business

What it doesn't show is that behind that band its still puking snow,and enhancement is ongoing with the backend snows due to a ivt feature associated with a dying low in canada.. we are gonna be in for a couple of more hours of moderate to heavy snow.

[Byrdhousebv]

Four inches down with continuing moderate to heavy rate in northeast Monmouth County.

As we have seen numerous times in the last two decades in many areas of this sub forum.

[Northof78]

[EasternLI]

Oh yeah.

As of 5:00 am, we're up to 3.5", but wth only 3/4" the last hour; 27F still.  Snowing moderately to heavily with larger flakes again.  Should at least get to 4", but not sure about my 4.75" prediction.  Great storm so far!  

Holy crap it poured snow most of the last hour, so as of 6:00 am, we're up to 5.0" of snow OTG, meaning we got 1.5" of snow in the past hour!  Actually exceeded my prediction of 4.75", which I thought was a bit too optimistic, as the NWS had me for 4.2".  We just backed off to moderate snow and that might have been the last of the heavy snow bands for us.  Still 27F.

6” and snowing like hell.

I was just gonna send you a msg and congratulate you ..we reached 6+ inches and still puking..lol..6.58 inches here in norwood,bx..

[Rjay]

Just finished shoveling.  Area I shoveled already covered.  Woo...

[NorthShoreWx]

Eyeball measurements not worth much, but FWIW, eyeballs say about 6" on the picnic table and we're about to get into a real nice looking band.  We take.

[wxman]

5.25" OTG 

[Big Jims Videos]

5.25 so far in Farmingdale Monmouth County got two inches since 5 am here.  

[BxSnowWx37]

It's kinda crazy that no upgrades to warning level snow have been made considering that parts of n.y.c are quickly approaching 7+ inches with more still to come..
