2 to 3 feet of snow in NYC

Now, I'm seeing they are saying 12-18 in NYC, but Boston is going to get hit hard. 12 hours of Blizzard conditions and over 40 hours of snow in Boston.

Light snow is falling in NYC.

The densely populated area from New York City to Boston could experience one of its ten biggest snowstorms on record early this week, as a textbook nor’easter takes shape over the next 48 hours. While local details are bound to evolve somewhat as the storm develops, the models are now in strong, consistent agreement on a potentially crippling snowstorm. Blizzard watches were hoisted on Sunday morning from eastern New Jersey to northeast Massachusetts, including the New York, Providence, and Boston metropolitan areas.

Despite the increasing skill of computer forecast models in recent years, this week’s threat emerged remarkably quickly. As recently as Friday, the model consensus was for a weaker storm that would sweep through the region from west to east, then strengthen well offshore. One of the first models to switch gears was the ECMWF, whose operational run issued at 00Z Friday night highlighted the risk of a potential blockbuster storm for the Northeast U.S. By Saturday morning, most other models had quickly joined the bandwagon. “All operational models now have the forecast of a major snowstorm/blizzard,” said NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center on Sunday morning......
The heaviest snow totals are likely to occur along a SW-to-NE belt oriented from somewhere near or just east of New York City to eastern Massachusetts in or near Boston. In situations like these, narrow strips of intense snow (mesoscale bands) are typically oriented along an upper-level “bent-back” warm front that arcs west from the consolidating storm. Wherever these bands set up, snowfall rates can easily exceed 3”/hour. It’s impossible to predict the exact location of the bands this far in advance. However, mesoscale forecast tools such as NOAA’s new High-Resolution Rapid Refresh model (which became operational just last fall) should provide more detailed guidance by late Monday.
Damn, 3 inches an hour in someplaces (http://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=2902)

[Thorpesaurous]

I'm in the 18-24 range on that map, but I'm hearing 15 - 30 from most of the local news outlets at this point. Came into work early so I could leave earlier. And I don't expect anyone to be open tomorrow.

[ROCSteady]

I'm sittin in the 14-18 inches target precipitation

[bagelred]

Blizzard. :rolleyes:

There won't be any snow. This "weather warning" is a hoax put up by the liberal agenda. There's plenty of meteorologists that also say it will be 70 degrees and sunny. I have the websites right here.

No one can know the truth for sure. No need to prepare.

[ballup]

I am readyz. 2 feet gonna cancel work :D

[Suguru101]

Losing two classes and a shift of work today...

Damn snow, and then the shoveling.

Is that joke directed at yourself? You know that you actually do this for real news stories too?

[KevinNYC]

I'm in the 18-24 range on that map,
That image seems to be dyanmically generated as it had NYC at 24-36 yesterday.

[senelcoolidge]

Thousands are expected to die in the Northeast. Good luck up there. Here is in the high 60's and sunny.

[knickballer]

Yea, I saw the 24-36 forecast as well and up to "3 Feet"

Although, it's definitely gonna be bad I find it funny how people binge shop at supermarkets buying a year's supply of canned corn that they'll never touch :oldlol:

[KevinNYC]

Okay, they say 20 inches now. Still not buying it. They overshoot to get people riled up all the time.

Seems like they shifted the heavier snowfall north.

[Thorpesaurous]

The little cross that marks the 18 - 24 at the river that ends Fairfield County is pretty much on my house.

[Godzuki]

i'm near baltimore and its only 1-2 inches prediction. its pretty warm right now too. must be just missing us :confusedshrug:

Blizzard is starting at about the middle of NJ.

[bagelred]

Look, some scientists say it's going to be a blizzard in NYC. Others say it's going to be 70 degrees and sunny. There's no way to know either way. We'll just call it even.

[Proctor]

In the 18-24 range myself. My body is ready.

[mlh1981]

Just another sunny day in Florida.

[Kungfro]

Meanwhile it's currently 16[B]

[zoom17]

To all the people that live in the east coast stay safe.

[KingBeasley08]

It'd be nice if they would actually fcking cancel class here

NYC has crept back to 2 feet of snow

[KevinNYC]

I'm in the 18-24 range on that map,
Not any more.

[KevinNYC]

DeBlasio issued a statement
NEW YORK—As a major winter storm continued its advance toward New York City, Mayor Bill de Blasio advised residents Monday to make peace with whatever higher power they call God, for all shall meet their death in the coming tempest. “The furious hoarfrost bearing down upon us knows neither mercy nor reason, and all within the five boroughs will perish, cowering in their brittle dwellings,” said de Blasio, adding that none would find succor from the gale save those favored by providence to pass quietly in their sleep. “This shall be a tempest the likes of which has never been glimpsed by man or beast. Clutch your babes close to your breast and take small comfort in knowing that they will howl for but a few hours before death becalms them forever.” De Blasio added that, barring an unexpected intensification in the storm, normal subway and bus service would resume Wednesday.

[Take Your Lumps]

Just another sunny day in Florida.

Yeah, but it's Florida.

[Cali Syndicate]

Stay safe, everyone.

[bagelred]

The Blizzard is a Bust. Not even snowing in NYC now. Already forecast down from 2 feet, to 8 - 10".

No shit. I live in Brewster.

Anyway, let's hope we get power back soon.

[Proctor]

Was in the 24-36 inch bracket and so far have managed to get away with only 5". :biggums:

Apparently the models disagreed. National Weather Service picked the one that was off more.

Weather channel picked better.


However, this storm is going to last all day today.

[bagelred]

"Worst storm in city's history".

:hammerhead: It's a normal snow day...lame.

[KevinNYC]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B8XDScvIMAAVeEe.png

That green is a stationary band of snow with 2-4 inches of snow falling per hour.

[KevinNYC]

Worcester Ma, got 25 inches so far with more coming.

[knickballer]

"Worst storm in city's history".

:hammerhead: It's a normal snow day...lame.

:D :D

Sure it's still a good amount out there but nowhere near the worst. N1gga said that so people will buy years supply of food in the emergency if they lose power for 30 minutes.

I remember the storms last year being much worst

[Draz]

Bs. NY didn't get hit that hard just a normal snow storm. I still probably have to go to classes tomorrow.

[ballup]

Still snowing in Boston area. Been snowing since yesterday afternoon.

Coastal Massachusetts has been hit hard

http://static01.nyt.com/images/2015/01/27/us/28NESTORM3/28NESTORM3-master675.jpg

Still seeing hurricane force gusts out there.

20 inches in Boston and close to 30 in other parts of Massachusetts.

Flooding during a winter storm must be terrifying.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

that flood happened because a wall or something broke, right?

[KevinNYC]

Dunno. There was a 3-4 foot storm surge that came in. So it might have overwhelmed the local seawall.

edi: yup

The police in Marshfield, Mass., just south of Scituate, said high tide had washed away a major section of a sea wall and caused structural damage to a home.

Nantucket and a lot of Cape Cod have no power.

[CavaliersFTW]

Someone's toilet backed up :(

Got 2+ feet of fluffy snow.

Stay safe my fans.

I feel for u man, but i'm glad its not worse. I can't stand too much snow:facepalm

[Derka]

Here on Cape Cod, its still hurricane force gusts and snow accumulating at a pretty crazy rate. I shoveled off 7" last night before bed, woke up to another 14" and its been going pretty steadily since.

Just had the first dalliances with the power going out, but its only Comcast...the wireless gateway keeps flitting in and out as I'm trying to catch up on Downton Abbey episodes.

Infrastructure out here is terrible since none of the retirees want to pay for anything, so plowing is slow going. Our DPW guys just worked 15 hours straight and are finally taking a break, but there's at least another 5-6 hours of heavy snow forecast for us.

[bluechox2]

hardy got 1 feet around my area

[HomieWeMajor]

Ain't seen this much white in NY since Frank Lucas.

[KevinNYC]

Ain't seen this much white in NY since Frank Lucas.
He never moved as much as Nicky Barnes.

The coke kings of the 80's probably surpassed them both.

[KevinNYC]

Massachusetts got up to 36 inches
Conneticutt hit 33
New Hampshire hit 33
Long Island, NY hit 28.5

[CelticBaller]

and is also supposed to snow on friday
