Mr Torchey Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Will be surprised if we get anything here in Fairfield Cty-but can't complain after yesterday... if we get anything it will be from the ivt that will extend nw or a developing deform band a little later, but i think it will be tough.

A-L-E-X Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 You'll need a microscope to see the snow (if it is even falling) here in Smithtown... Looks like its moving out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Wow ACY had 7-8 inches? Jackpot? 6.9 as of 1pm, and 28.1 so far for the season, so both figures may be revised upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, how much did they have at this point last season? I think they ended up with over 60 inches last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swataz Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 So is this pretty much a bust here in this area? Is there going to be some type of wrap-around action or are we looking at the end of this event for us out here? Radar doesn't look too promising, that's for sure.

If you're west of the Nassau/Suffolk border its basically over...east of there I still anticipate 3-5 inches will fall over the south fork of LI and maybe 1-2 into central Suffolk.

Isotherm Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Wow, how much did they have at this point last season? I think they ended up with over 60 inches last season. ACY's total was 21.5" for DEC/JAN combined last winter, so they're well ahead. I think most people are, since February was the major month in 09-10. I'm ahead of my total for last winter as well. Was about 23" at this time, this year I'm 25.5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 No doubt it has pivoted NW over the last hour. The Twin Forks are in for a good time, I believe... It would not surprise me to see Orient see little if anything and East Hampton to get 6 inches in this one...I think the north fork will see much less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After this season, their reputation as a snow hole may be slightly (or temporarily) diminished. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allsnow Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 SUNY model seems to have a pretty good handle on it...only strange thing is what happens to the snow between 1z and 2z... when you have time can you make a thread like last year with snowfall amounts at major stations for the east coast...i enjoy reading and watching that thread last year.

SnowGoose69 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 SG, what's causing this weird track and suppression with this? S NJ was basically aided by the 500 vort which pushed across the area...however, as the surface low formed all the energy pushed out towards the surface low as opposed to contnuing to rotate up the coast...the area would have done better if no surface low formed, though I doubt anyone would have seen more than 2 inches.

These past few days have provided some delightful meteorological theatre for professionals and hobbyists alike - it's been pretty fascinating to behold these 3 distinct events ... especially the interactions of several unique and sometimes quirky features at seemingly all distance scales.
