winterwx21 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Still just light snow with that better band, but it should be enough to get us to a half inch. Only 22 degrees and the wind is blowing the powdery snow around. A beautiful hardcore winter night. I'm going outside quite a bit to enjoy it in case it's our last snowfall of the season. Hopefully it isn't, but it's getting late and you never know. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 About 0.7-0.8”. Still light snow but should be about over. So that gets me a little over 19” for the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Two photos from Mamaroneck. Light snow continues to fall, but there's not much fluff to the snow and it is barely accumulating. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volcanic Winter Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Got a nice .25+ so far, had to drive up to EWR to pick my parents up for the airport. Cold, wintry drive! I’m at, let’s call it 10 inches on the season with today / tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brings us to 16.5" this season. Beautiful light fluffy snow - must be 14-15:1 ratios. About to go broom this one away. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine that's unusual. TIA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 1 hour ago, donsutherland1 said: Thanks for this post Don. I want to add... The LGA snowfall was on an ASOS T... doesn't work that way in temps 20s. That needs NWS fixing as does NYC and EWR meager or nonexistent w.e. Common sense tells you from the web cams that this is too low for W.E... I'd use 13 to 1 NYC metro, as per modeled snowratios prior to the event. Guess that doesn't mean much in the big scheme of things except when someone goes back to verify model qpf, or check on days with measurable w.e. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 Snowfall axis past 48 hours ending 12z/21. The main one was a 250-300 mi miss to the south on the D6.5 ensemble outlook issued around 4A/14. Our general snowfall in the area was roughly near 1/2", with the primary scooting out to sea well ahead of the ULL that crossed NJ-LI near 00z/21. These cool season max axis departures on D6 multiple model agreement ensembling is troubling-something that I think will be reduced considerably over the next 5-10 years, provided our science will be permitted the tools. For now, my winter time threads based on cyclic ensembling agreement will be limited to at most D5. Less lead time, an attempt to detect the sudden departures from the glide slope of the D6-7 cyclic expectation. This will reduce thread disappointment, but mean that American Weather comments cannot imply need for thread till we are more assured of snowfall-those comments depositing in the monthly thread, if needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdrag Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 CoCoRaHs data this morning had a bunch of T's snowfall southwest of NYC. Sometimes I think observers got to it late, wind impacted measuring, or that less than 1/2" was commented as a T-the latter I hope I'm wrong. Imperfect... but the main thing, many had a little snow to brighten spirits last evening. I see nothing confidently more than 0.1" CP snowfall for at least a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest within 100 hours (96 hours or 4 days), but starting it at 5 days might be good to get a head start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
