MANDA Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Latest Snow Totals per OKX https://nwschat.weather.gov/p.php?pid=202303142233-KOKX-NOUS41-PNSOKX Ended up with 4.8" at my location. Looked real good mid and late afternoon with blowing snow off rooftops and across open spaces. Some "drifted" spots on side of house up to 8-10". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcanic Winter Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Almost a solid half inch down here! Pretty surprised, but it dropped to 32 during that last snow band before. Most snow all winter for me, … yikes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANDA Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Some totals to envy coming out of Albany office. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=ALY&issuedby=ALY&product=PNS&format=ci also from Boston office https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=BOX&product=PNS&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off I think we can say the pattern delivered and blocking produced. Just did not work out for the best in our area. Pretty much classic Miller B just came together too far north to deliver the goods for this forum. As has been the case all season best totals were along and north of Rt. 80 and west of 287. The 7-9" totals across Sussex County were impressive. Entire forum would have done better if temperatures were about 5-7 degrees colder or if it was about a month earlier. Air mass needed to be just slightly colder and we would have had a better outcome for NYC and the immediate burbs. Not to mention ratios would have been better, especially inland. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pattern delivered and produced but this is not a pattern that would benefit the coast or the city, that much was apparent from the beginning. Besides a few blip model runs, this was always a N/W pattern. Too little too late-- the theme of the entire winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was something about walking through the snowfall and seeing it gleam in the light that made me really happy. so you saw it hang on until nightfall? it ended here around 4.

I'm not 100% sure what to do. We had about 0.6" on the board and most of the grass and the 1" on the car I took a pic of (and not much on some other lawns that were likely more in the sun), when I left around 5:15 pm to go to the RU game and got back around 9:30 pm and checked the board, which I had wiped before I left, and had another 0.4" on it, so I'm thinking of calling it an even 1.0". I was monitoring the radar after I left and it looks like Metuchen stayed pretty well under that band for a few hours after I left. I also see a report of 1.4" from Edison, so 1.0" seems reasonable. Thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every model basically sucked with this storm and the RGEM/CMC were no exception. Besides being bad for areas well north and west, some parts of Long Island had snow which I don't think they had correct either. They are consistently too warm and dry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brasiluvsnow Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 33 degrees here in New City but with this wind howling it sure feels so much colder as I was just outside with the dog and the winds are whipping,,,,,in keeping with this thread yes the models have had better days and weeks but that sure seems like a long time ago they were bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? Definitely. We got caught under that band for a few hours. Very odd accumulation pattern around town. Some lawns looked like 1-2 others liked it just rained all day. Awful, that RU isn’t in the tournament. Those losses at the end of the year hurt so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Morning thoughts… Today will be sunny but cool. High temperatures will reach the middle 40s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include: New York City (Central Park): 45° Newark: 47° Philadelphia: 48° It will turn milder tomorrow. Normals: New York City: 30-Year: 49.3°; 15-Year: 50.0° Newark: 30-Year: 50.4°; 15-Year: 51.3 Philadelphia: 30-Year: 52.3°; 15-Year: 52.8° 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I believe LGA is the only one over 3" (thanks to that December storm) and NYC is at 2.3" and JFK is now at 2.1" I believe EWR is over NYC's total but also under 3" These could be the new record snowfall totals at NYC and EWR (both breaking their records from 1972-73), but not at JFK or LGA I believe? The latter two still have their record low snowfall totals from 1972-73 intact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
