It's pressing to the south now and we're down to just flurries. Nice to freshen up the snow and much better than nothing, but still frustrating that the 3 inch snows missed us just a few miles to the south. If we end up with 5 (which is looking likely with a mild pattern the rest January) that's below normal for the month obviously, but much better than last January when we had nothing. At least this month wasn't a disaster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on south shore and nothing So much for the south shore idea. Doh although it’s been pretty steady here for the past hour. Maybe .2? Pretty pathetic regardless we got snow holed for a while, and when it was snowing, nothing stuck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 34 minutes ago, WestBabylonWeather said: In kings park easily over an inch. Coming down heavy. Back on south shore and nothing The grass is covered back up here on the south shore so it’s something. I’m sure it’s a lot better at my house where there’s maybe 2” new. Here in Long Beach it didn’t even cover my black car (which probably warmed up more from the sun). But grass/old snow is freshened up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 3.5" and still snowing lightly. Think the accumulating snow might be done. Nice surprise for some, NWS had good handle on this storm down south and west. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Looks like we'll end up with our current total of 1.7". Very light snow still falling and the temperature is 27° Total snowfall for the month of January, and the entire winter season is 5.2". We need another 3.5" to surpass last years low season total. Our average season-to-date through January 19 is 12.2". This is the 3rd day this month with 1" or more snowfall. We haven't had a 2" snowfall since last March 14 (311 days). The current snow depth is 3" which is comprised of roughly 50% each (by volume) of today's fluff and older icy snow. I'm running out of trivial stats, so the above will have to suffice as my entry for the longest write-up of the least amount of snow. So far Guinness hasn't called. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadInTheClouds Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 25 and cloudy. Had light snow most of the day but it amounted to a whopping 1/2 inch. I was expecting no more than an inch in HV so not disappointed. 15 for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 1 hour ago, RU848789 said: As of 2:30 pm we hit 2.7", but the snow has gone to light intensity since about 2:25 pm, so not sure if we can squeeze out another 0.3" to get to 3". Still 29F. As of about 3:15 pm, the snow was definitely over and my final measurement was 2.8", which turns out to not be that far below my 3.3" prediction around noon yesterday, when the forecast was for 3-6", which I never really bought into since the models were generally showing 2-4" for us, so i went well below what was being forecast at that time. Still a bit on the high side relative to what we got, but then again, my guess is that 5-10 miles north of us most are likely under 2", just based on the radar loop. Very nice, pretty storm and not too much inconvenience for most, I imagine, at least for shoveling, given how light and fluffy it was - was able to use a wide broom for 90% of it. There were definitely some impacts locally with snow covered local streets and even county roads for an hour or two - numerous fender benders reported, but nothing outrageous. Brings us to 7.2" on the season, which shouldn't be too far below normal, which is likely about 11" at this point in the season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJW014 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Still coming down at a moderate clip here. Visibility about a 1/2 mile. Starting to accumulate on roads now that the sun is down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBUWX23 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 The limited accumulation is a direct result of the sun being clearly visible during the snow and the relatively low rates. If this were a heavier snow I don't think it would have been a problem. Sun angle really isn't an issue. There have been several events where it's in the 60s the day before a good snow here that continued through the daytime in February. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
