There's usually a westernmost band in these that can make for surprise high amounts. I'd only really worry at this point if you were hyped on sky high amounts west of Riverhead or if you're well NW of the city, like west of I-287. I'd be more than happy with a 6-10" type event this winter where other than one lucky event we've gotten diddly. Might be worth it for a trip out east. The east end isn't far away and it's silly not to go. Then we can all say we had our 2 foot snowstorm lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that wasn't the big story; it was the 18 inches dropped in Feb 83.... Exactly, that and the April blizzard are the only two things of note that happened in the winter in the 80s. Okay maybe the Jan 1987 snowstorm too and the Thanksgiving 1989 snowstorm. But 1989-1990 is remembered far more for winter suckage than that early season event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 We're still 2.5 days out so things have room to change. I'm much more optimistic after the 12z suite even if it looked bad overall. I like the trends out west. If they continue then it'll translate downstream eventually. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always talk about traveling, get on the LIRR or drive to eastern LI. It's not that far away and I think a lot of us should do it to experience a really big snowstorm. Then we can all rub it in snowman19's face lol. Who cares whether it snows in the city or not, it looks like dirty toxic stuff in a day or two anyway, let's go east to see the snow where it will actually look pretty.

I said coming into this season I wouldn't bite on anything unless we're within 72hrs. This pattern is serviceable for a good NYC snow storm but as Don pointed out, it's not classic by any means. So we're seeing the pattern reflect the outcome possibly. This winter, take whatever you can get from a snow event and run with it. My average is probably ~32-33"/winter and I'm at less than 1/3 that total with Jan almost over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIK62 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The Champ just became one of the Chimps. The heaviest snowfall area has shifted from Cape May to Eastern LI in two runs. I have been cut in half from yesterday's 18". Could be game over. NWS hardly even mentioned snow and certainly not a blizzard possibility on KWO-35 this morning. This run makes them look like stars.

If the northern stream really does get more amplified and the PNA ridge more steep, it might still amp our storm enough to come closer to the coast and bomb out without the help from the southern stream. But to me that's a longer shot than with the southern stream phasing in early. The PNA ridge is in a pretty good place for us. I'd actually be surprised to see an OTS solution or graze with the ridge axis over Idaho. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GFS and the Euro are still more than 100+ miles apart in terms of how far West the significant snow gets. I don't know... Population wise, I'd say far more people are in the snow zone than out of it. Long Island and coastal CT are definitely in our forum area and the metropolitan area. As is coastal NJ.
