I ended up with 1.5” of sleet from this banger..edit: or maybe this was just a weenie run I screenshotted. The dates don’t add up. Either way lol

Looks like it was a weenie run I saved but I remember either December 17’ or 18’ the Euro had a 30” weenie run for the Carolinas inside 200 hours. Pain

Funny enough even though the date became the 9th, I got pretty close to the amount shown on that map (Map shows around 9 inches or 10 inches for me, I got 9)

I went back through the threads, and apparently that was mostly ice/sleet.

6” per hour snow rates in New York.

Bruh

 

[Webberweather53]

Forecasting snow is hard.

Being a winter weather lover in the south is pain. Even when I lived in the mountains, Boone rarely got the big snows of the past. Hopefully we will have at least one good storm

Having a massive arctic high funneling in a frigid low level cold air mass with very moist atlantic air overriding this arctic air mass can do really strange things. A set up of a lifetime for some of those upstate NY areas who weren't expecting much days ago. People in the mid-atlantic forums were discounting when the NAM was showing a northern trend(and even the NAM didn't pick up on those big totals until 12 or so hours ago). Too busy riding the GFS/Euro.

Can you imagine how pissed off the snow weenies are in Binghamton ? So close to an epic snowstorm and yet they only get 24" ?

---- I'd get in my car and start driving if the good stuff was that close. Have to dig it out but heck only 7-8 miles down the road there's nearly 3.5-4 feet?

Looks like the new big winner is Newark Valley, NY reporting 44"

I remember the 00z Euro had a weenie 20”+ run for GSO the night before the February 2014 storm. We got 7.5”, so it was a good storm, but 20” it was not. But the Euro is infallible, folks.

Pretty cool how you can see a surface low spinning south of Long Island on this infrared radar.

Another fail. Hard to get freezing fog when you don’t get below the mid 30s. But at least my county is under a Dense Fog Advisory...

Indeed. Actually crept up here overnight.
