OT: Winter Storm Warning in Effect (8-20 inches)

[Leetch3]

Continued to increase? ABC7 is saying 6-8 inches in the city now lol. It's not even snowing near me right now, just some sleet. There's probably 4-5 inches on the ground. Busterooooney.

those totals aren't for when you wake up, thats when it stops snowing 11-12 hours from now

If you read any legitimate meteorologist you would understand that the storm went west from where they expected. It's not making a right hook 11-12 hours from now. Nobody in NYC or the Hudson Valley is getting anything approaching 18-20 inches, which was the supposed "minimum" amount to expect. Cuomo acknowledged that this morning and I'm watching Steve Bellone from Suffolk saying the same thing right now. Again, there will be snow on the ground but absolutely nothing close to what was predicted. Busterooney.

Been following this thread for the past day or so, I appreciate you guys having a thread for this . Just flew in for a conference in Midtown on Tues/Weds. How's LaGuardia in terms of managing the snow? Any chance I get out of here Wednesday night? Thanks.

McPoops!!!

Yup the storm went west! Thank god. Blizzard was cancelled. Snkw totals dropping drastically. Consider me VERY happy right now. Though the sleet has all changed back to heavy snow now for me.

You can thank Zibanejad's whiff for the giant gust of wind that pushed the storm away from NYC.

At the dog park on the UWS. There's about four inches already with some nice sized flakes coming down. No wind though, so it's actually pleasant.

 

[Chaels Arms]

Blizzard warning lifted. I'm getting huge snow flakes here now but it just doesn't feel cold enough to really amount to anything.

I love spending my spring break trapped inside because of this ****. What a joy.

Coming down crazy hard here in Morristown NJ. We got about an inch over the past 1/2 hour.

 

[Crease]

Started to sleet as the temp increased. Lots of dogs at the park, some runners (?) and a cross-country skier.

 

[Bluenote13]

What a let down, freezing rain mostly here in the City near the water, totals went from 12-18 to 3-6, very disappointing....

 

[Irishguy42]

Only have a few inches here in Bayside and it looks like light snow coming down.

comment of the thread. Doesn't seem that bad in midtown, I might go into the office soon.

 

[GAGLine]

I guess 15 minutes west of NYC qualifies as west. I've gotten well over a foot by now and it's still coming down hard.

Yea my area will be close to 18 inches lol we are getting nothing but snow

 

[ecemleafs]

its pouring ice in the bronx.

 

[KOVALEV022473]

Yeah, I'm in Rockland, just Northwest of the city, and we already have about 14" and it's still coming down hard.

 

[East Coast Bias]

I'm on the Bergen/Rockland border and it's coming down hard here. Winds are insane. Flakes the size of golf balls.

Whoever wants to grandstand about the cancelled blizzard can come shovel my driveway.

I have a foot of snow where I live. I wouldn't exactly call this storm a bust. There's still tons of time to get the totals up to predictions.

Same thing over here in Montville, NJ. Don't know exactly how many inches but definitely at least a foot so far, crazy snow

Think this is what was supposed to happen in the city but it shifted overnight? We were supposed to get, what, 12-24, but instead are getting like 5-8.

Not sure why that one dude is complaining about that As much as I like the snow, two feet would be quite the inconvenience... and I'm already working from home anyway
