I don’t care if it holds on until tomorrow. Let the record show: this was Christmas Eve in Manhattan, 2024.

Up to 1/2" in 45 minutes, so 1" is within reach.  Absolutely gorgeous out there.  Snow on top of snow without a single flake melting (27F still) on Christmas Eve, so we will have a White Christmas here with 2-2.5" OTG in most locations here.  The only thing better would be way more snow, but can't be too greedy these days.  

3/4" of snow in 1 hour is a pretty nice rate - beautiful, fluffy dendrites, so I'm guessing we're at at least 15:1 ratios (snow to liquid; typical is 10:1). Almost certainly will make 1" now and that's probably about it. Temp actually dropped to 26F.

Time will tell - with temps in the upper 30's what do you think will happen ? with mostly sunny skies in the afternoon ? Was less then an inch that fell.......

Let people enjoy the snow lol 

I think everyone can infer what will happen when the sun comes out and temps rise above freezing.

We got 1" - woohoo! Probably will get another 1/4" before it's over in 15-20 minutes.

Ended up with 1.1" of new snow, so another overperformer. Roads are very slippery with no melting during this event, which was mostly at 26-27F. This gives me about 2.5" in the front yard, which gets more sun, and 3" in the backyard, which is shadier, so a white Christmas (more than 1/2" OTG at 7 am Christmas morning, technically) is a guarantee.

1.1" + 3.3" the other day and 0.3" in a few small dustings earlier this winter = 4.7", which is about normal for December (NYC's mean snowfall is 4.9", while New Brunswick's is 4.7") and we're unlikely to get more this month.

For what it’s worth, I measured 0.9 inches on Roosevelt Island this AM which, combined with last week’s event, brings the seasonal total to 2.9 inches.  No idea what CPK will do and, to be honest, I’ve long stopped considering that measurement.

Close enough for the 3-inches-in-December-Niñas rule? :P
