Sleet line washed out again looks like, pushed back to Brooklyn?

Its snowing with just a bit of sleet here in the bx. The last bands are moving thru.a 3 to 5 inch line is going to cut thru the northern parts of the city across in to li.

JFK is usually the lowest of the 3 climate sites, I expect that to be reflected by this storm as well. It’s funny because the way NYC is spread out, I feel like they are all equally accurate for their respective areas. JFK is usually indicative of south shore Queen/BK, Staten Island. Central Park is usually indicative of Manhattan and Bronx. And LaGuarida is usually indicative of the city’s largest borough, Queens. So I guess they each have some value but Central Park definitely under measures most of the time 

I live in northern Brooklyn its closer to lga tbh

Last hour was 1/2 so I'm a little confused by 2/3 unless there was a ton of compaction somehow.

Golden Retrievers and Labs are just the best. They are awesome. I miss my black Lab.

Looks like NWS Upton busted for northern zones on this one. Doubt anyone outside of interior New England has 8”. Most of Hudson valley will have up to 5” max

Happens. Not the easiest forecast.  I think they did a good job.  

[jm1220]

So awesome for the N Shore. Wish I was there, but was a good couple hours here. 

[Volcanic Winter]

Very happy for the city, glad they picked up something tonight!

Will probably fare better here on Tues, maybe.

GFS 18z predicted warm nose never materialized ….0z initialization at two locations:  so freezing rain never materialized 

 

 

[Rjay]

Sleet/snow huge flakes though

[psv88]

Last hurrah? Puking snow, 4.5” down, temp dropping back a bit to 30.4

[donsutherland1]

It’s now sleeting in Larchmont.

[cleetussnow]

Yeah NWS bust up here.  Didn’t get 4.  

[lee59]

3 1/4 inches here, still a mixture of sleet and snow.

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

11:00 PM, first and last measurement of the night 3.5 inches, 25° and moderate snow, now at 27.9 inches for the season.

[Krs4Lfe]

Mix of sleet and snow in Bayside now. Looks like lowest amounts will be along south shore 2.5” or so and highest will be 4”+ in Bronx. I guess a general 2-4”+. Biggest event since mid February of last year. Central park under 4” streak continues
