I thank you sir. I will keep a close eye on things and make a decision over the next few hours.

Seems like all board has a few inches at least when we just have a slushy dusting. Sucks yes Irish I always get screwed. Hoping heavier bands come in.

by **jmanley32** Mon Dec 02, 2019 2:10 pm

Is this a freaking joke? Ending at 2pm with nearly nothing? Or is there st I'm missing that will come later. I recall Frank saying st about a midday lull. I pray that's true cuz otherwise mega bust worst I ever seen. Ever. Rant over.

JMan I wouldn’t write it off yet. The HRRR shows you in a lull now but a heavier band setting back up over NYC up into your area between 4 pm and midnight. Whether that actually happens I can’t guarantee; but it is forecast.

by **jmanley32** Mon Dec 02, 2019 2:54 pm

Okay Bill I'll wait till after 4 to see. If nothing by 6 I'd say it's over as the biggest fail in my memory.

by **billg315** Mon Dec 02, 2019 2:56 pm

Yeah I’m becoming skeptical for my area. I like your chances better only because you’re further north and east and I could see that heavy band to your southwest swinging through as the storm pulls away. As for me, well, I have nothing to my west to draw from. Lol.

by **Frank_Wx** Mon Dec 02, 2019 3:54 pm

This forecast had disaster and bust written all over it from the beginning, but man what a let down if this does not save itself in the next few hours!

by **billg315** Mon Dec 02, 2019 3:59 pm

I hear ya Frank. I was actually never sold on the “big” numbers on some of the models (i.e. 8”-plus) but after looking at the models last night and radar this morning I thought I’d get at least a 2-4” hit even if it busted. Instead I’m in coating to an inch territory here. Oh well. Better a bust like this now when expectations are lower than January when we’re expecting big snows.

by **billg315** Mon Dec 02, 2019 4:04 pm

I find this somewhat amusing: for the last three days the Snowcast on my Accuweather App showed me at 1-2”. I couldn’t understand why when NWS was talking 4-6” which the models agreed with. Now, this afternoon, as I’m firmly looking at one inch of snow, the Snowcast has changed to 3-6”. Uh, what? Lol.

It was, I had really hoped you guys were right but sometimes even the best forecasts bust despite proper analysis, and you did have plenty of hesitations. But man I expected more than a wet dusting, seems most on the board reported several inches, have not heard from Al but he is so close to me I assume he also got nada. What is it with my area? I see that band over the water, this was really that much further south to allow thatto never make it to where it did what all the models showed?

by **mikeypizano** Mon Dec 02, 2019 5:16 pm

What a joke, 2 day storm and wind up with like 2 inches... Most of the sidewalks and driveways barely even had anything stick to them. Hope all winter ain't like this!

by **jmanley32** Tue Dec 03, 2019 11:05 am

Where's 5he regular Dec. Thread lol? I'm hearing snow Friday? I haven't looked at models.

Are you following the mess going on in New Zealand?

by **jmanley32** Tue Dec 10, 2019 7:46 pm

Here it is away from the important threads. I am sick and tired of always being in the snow hole or have severe t-storms break up but huge storm just to north and just to south. It's like there is a force field or some kind of geographic configuration that just makes the weather uneventful in Yonkers. It was so much bettter in CT. Yes we do occasionally get some excitement but for the most part I would say its 80% everyone else here does 100x better. As for my job who doesnt want to get a day off and get paid? LOL you would be crazy to think otherwise, Understand I am a ABA therapist for 18 month to 3 year olds in a private school so it is extremely exhausting physically and mentally. Usually I am coming home from that and cant stand to see the weather go wrong. I do not have the luxary to really check in from 8am to 3:15pm as I did with my last job as our phones must be away to keep a hawks eye on these kids. I love working with them but man they are a handful. The all have autism spectrum disorder OR developmental delays, mainly in speech. Anyways its very possible I get surprised tomorrow but as history has it it just doesnt happen very often. Rant done. Thanks

by **Scullybutcher** Tue Dec 10, 2019 7:58 pm

Yes Scott. I’m back. It’s winter time. I want long nights of watching snow pile up, snow blowing, wind and excitement. Hopefully we get a nice B this winter.

by **jmanley32** Tue Dec 10, 2019 8:54 pm

To all that think I am a high school kid your very wrong. There's nothing wrong with wanting snow days. 1190, are you a teacher for kids with disabilities I don't teach 18 month olds how to be good leaders but I do get them to speak. So why don't you take your asssssumptions somewhere else.

by **mikeypizano** Tue Dec 10, 2019 8:55 pm

How about people like me who rely on snow for work?
