NYC Jan 17-19 Snow/Ice/Rain Storm Obs

Just went outside. Everything is ice where there is no snow. Streets are a mess.

Very dangerous commute for work and the school crew today.

Manhattan streets probably have no ice, so Bloomberg won't delay or close schools. He only thinks Manhattan is NYC.

KNYC is holding its own... I'm not sure a single non-frozen raindrop will fall there today based on radar... We'll see.

Even LGA on the water is holding at 32 degrees and they're built INTO the sound, not just by it.

<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Central queens gets no Hudson valley drainage, and depending on where you ar in relation to the moraine, is really exposed to marine flow. It's rare, but entirely impossible that Manhattan north of the battery stays ice while most of Queens flips. Happened in an ice storm in the late 90s, IIRC.

There's not much precipitation left. Even if you have rain now it probably won't even melt everything that fell prior to changeover. And people were talking about losing the entire snowpack a couple days ago!

looks to be mostly done in the next 2 hrs...this is actually the best case scenario for keeping our snowpack

We'd all be crying bust if this were to be all snow-models horribly over-done on QPF unless something back builds in or develops. I'll take it though here, keep my snowpack intact and with another inch and then a coating of ice...
