jm1220 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Elmont 17.3”, I’m calling BS on that one. Orient 25”,’ wow, but they were sitting under that final band for hours. There are probably lots of 20-25” in the Hamptons and N Fork. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 19.2” sounds kinda high still, but don’t think it was too far from reality. We had some legit bands all night and morning. My parents out in Dix Hills measured less around 14”, which kinda surprises me. Lot sizes. Much higher percentage of rooftop snow on the lawn with a 60x100 lot than an acre lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between Huntington and Melville and Dix hills and commack is pretty substantial. Once you hit exit 42 on the northern amounts really go up. Looked like a solid 4-5” inches more in commack than Huntington. I could definitely see Huntington only getting 12’” or so. wow so that was because of subsidence from being between bands?

I run snow removal for a famous college on the uws and have been outside in and among every storm for the last decade. This was a 10” storm. I think it’s more of a psychological issue that the park didn’t record double digits. But as far as impact (drifts, road conditions and lasting power) this storm is pretty much a mirror image of 1/15. I walked around the quad of a very famous college on the West side late this afternoon - and if those nearly dry, spotless sidewalks are your handiwork, then a tip of the hat to you, good sir... I also walked in some fresh powder in sheltered areas of Riverside... and I'm more open to the idea that it could have been 9-10" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just drove up Rt 231 from Babylon to Jericho Tpke and Sunrise Highway east from Wantagh. The whole area from Seaford to Babylon to around the LIE got slammed. I definitely believe the 20+ totals there. Amounts decreased a little in Dix Hills and a little more by the time you get to my house. It looks almost dead on like after the 2/1 storm last year which was 15” for me, so that’s probably what I got this time here. Looks a little more overall than Long Beach has but there was a lot more drifting there. Some lawns there are bare, some clogged in snow so I think 12” for Long Beach is good. Tomorrow I’ll drive down Vets Highway past MacArthur to Patchogue and really salivate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the snow maps are nearly identical with this one and Jan 2015, this one was a little farther west I think with the heavy stuff and overall it was probably more enjoyable for most of us because expectations were not for at least 2 ft lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trained spotters in Monroe reported 6 inches Greenwood lake 6.9 and highland Mills 8.4. I live in highland Mills and measured 9 inches. I thought I was wrong until I saw the reports. I’m not sure what happened in that line but I witnessed it and just figured we were over performing in most of Orange County and not just a localized 5-10 mile stretch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
