The snow beat the freezing line lets see if the band can beat the freezing line.

I just saw a report from Seaford long Island only about 4 miles to my southeast that it is raining. I just looked at temps in the region and south of Hempstead Tpk. route 24, temperatures are in the mid to upper 30s and apparently raining, north of the turnpike it is the low 30s and snowing.

Closing in on an inch here

Enjoyed the gorgeous night snow and brief moment of zen before changeover on the UWS. Riverside Dr. completely snow covered.

 

 

Not bad..snow isn't sticking much where I am in the bx, coating on some cars but mostly just wet otherwise

[ForestHillWx]

27 with moderate snow. Main roads are getting bad. Light snow removal tonight considering the holiday.

I’ve got two weather stations at the house both at 36. I see all the reports across the island saying snow.. it is rain here. I am just about a mile north of sunrise hwy.

That gradient won't last very long.  The HRRR has been pretty good at modeling this coastal front

Here’s the R/S line on the island…32 and snow here now

For whatever reason images can’t attach …

Yea I am in levittown about a 1/2 mile north of Hempstead Turnpike near the Wantagh Parkway. It is snow here but probably not for long. I looked at numerous observations south of the pike and they are like you near 36-37 degrees. I am 32.5.

I agree with you, I think I84 is going to overperform. Precip is just racing. Hope it stays snow and doesn't flip to sleet quick up there.  

Snowing here in Dutchess 24 degrees 

[bch2014]

.5-.75” down on cold surfaces here in the 10005. Hasn’t mixed yet.

Wont matter in a few hours but definitely more SE than where it was modeled to be at this time.

The precip type charts showed rain here, but the 3k NAM forecast soundings definitely looked like a start as snow.  Not sure about Yonkers, but I assume similar there albeit a wee bit snowier.

HRDPS impressive I80 north.  watch it if Thunder snow gets going up here along the NYS-PA border. I  like its colder scenario but I'll defer to the fact that I may in error. Am expecting snow thru midnight in Sussex County NJ and possibly back and forth mix rain/snow to S+ between 1A-3A. 

I have moderate snow down here in Bethlehem Twp, PA with almost 1” new.  Models have been dropping hints for days regarding the dynamics associated with this system.  I would definitely agree that there is positive bust potential in the I80 corridor in NW NJ and NE PA.  This is shaping up to be a very interesting night out here and places further north.

[psv88]

Beautiful steady snow now. I give it another 10 minutes until the show ends here

Choose the size of the image and select small.

Snowing pretty good here. Going to end up over an inch here in Brooklyn.

[STORMANLI]

Light snow began 727pm.

32°

[Rjay]

Light rain. 38 degrees 

[NorthShoreWx]

It may turn to rain before the CC shows it.  All the warming above freezing so far is in the lowest levels.  Which means this snow, which has quickly coated the street, is going to be over real soon.  Just a hair under 33° now.
