nycemt123 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I have seen them up in the Poconos too. Hopefully this storm gets rid of them, for awhile anyway.That would be lovely!

IrishRob17 Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 While weenies are concerned with what the various 10:1 snow maps show falling on their head one thing I think many aren’t realizing is the relatively long period of winds with some decent gusts. It certainly will feel like winter for a couple days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crossbowftw3 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Looks like the last minute reversals back east are happening, pretty standard fare now for this winter At least up here should still see 6-12 I would think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Gorilla Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 3-6 inches as usual here in the River Valley I think barring last minute surprises. I am so done with this pathetic winter. Enjoy those of you who crack 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPcantmeasuresnow Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 You started to get the sense on Saturday that this was not going to be one to two to three feet of snow in our area that many of the models, Euro, NAM, UKIE, even a couple of CMC runs, were outputting. I wish there was a way to punish them all for stupidity, especially the Euro and NAM but would that really bring the storm back? We expect stupidity from the NAM and everyone ignores it accordingly, the Euro should just be taken out back and put out of its misery. The more modest forecast amounts now, 4-12 in the WSW for Orange County, was always in the range I assumed would actually happen but on the higher end of that range. I'm now convinced, at least where I am at 600 feet elevation 4 miles north of Woodbury Common, that even 4 inches will be tough to achieve. Part of me, even though I love snow, is now hoping this is a total failure snow wise. Why not remember this Winter that never was as the epic failure that it should be remembered as. Let's go out with a gang buster of a bust and wake up Wednesday morning with a half inch of backend slush. It's the only way for this miserable season that wasn't to end.. Sitting at 18.5 inches for the season and need less than 4.5 inches from this storm to keep my snowfall futility record for a season. Part of me hoping for that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still say 6-12 for me in Sullivan one county north of you both but I would now believe 6-9” would be more common than the 9-12” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Currently some snow showers here to kick off days and days. Models have ticked a little cooler since last night, so it wouldn't take a huge bust to see bigger accums in the valleys. I'm not ready to write off 10"+ imby. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest Euro run certainly bears that hope out. I think I'm just suffering from weekend model hangover and need rest to see this thing out until the end.

There's still time for this to go either way. You being further north and east is a plus this time I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I think Julian wins this one being between the Catskills and Litchfield Hills and Berkshires maxes and also being near the Taconic Spine with the best chance of going over 9". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRVTS Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 At what point in the storm will the IVT begin to present itself. It seems that it's position will be the difference between 2 and 10 inches. I dont know how the NWS still gives Putnam 6-12 when the forcasted temp never drops below 33 for the entire storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 GFS still looks decent here, which is a little comforting after the torched RGEM/3km NAM/ICON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of me hoping for that. it's important to remember that many of these models got worse after their "upgrades" maybe that will be considered and the models will be tweaked back to what they were before these "upgrades" the only model that got better after its upgrade was the Canadian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
