It's called a clipper due to the speed of the storm not the moisture. There have been blizzards that came from clippers like 2004.

Clippers are named for the location they come from, and this did not come from Canada

Also the "super clippers" that create east coast blizzards redevelop along the coast and become noreasters.  The original clipper dies out and creates a Miller B.  The last one we had was in January 2005.  The Millenium storm of December 2000 was also one of these.

or it’s still 32° in Central Park and never got back to the 20s as forecasted. 

 

It will be interesting to see what the totals will be in central Park today versus the airports

I don't think they even got 3 inches.

I'm above freezing and I got several inches .

Interesting that the temps stayed at freezing in the city itself,but ratios went up as you went north even with less qpf. Im kinda shocked because there is almost 3 inches of fluff outside and its still snowing. Temps were 28-29 here whole time.

The park has been 31 for hours.

Ratios were very high in that band as well.
