Re: December 20th-21st 2024 Minor snow potential

25* degrees with light snow nearing the edge.

3.6 inches on the ground which will still be here Christmas Eve and morning. The nightmare of Christmas Eve and Christmas 2020 has been avenged.

1.5 inches here in Deer Park with a temperature of 30 degrees! I’m sure my 3 year old granddaughter is excited to see this as she wakes up down the block.Just some very light snow falling.

3” on grass and deck, less on walk and driveway, nothing at all on the street! Obviously the town prepared well.

by **SENJsnowman** Sat Dec 21, 2024 8:02 am

Last bit of the system still hanging on. TWC says 2" for my back yard, and definitely looks so on the car and railings. This is the first measurable December snowfall for coastal Monmouth/Ocean counties that I can remember in at least 3-4 years, so a really nice treat for sure! Hopefully this digging/negatively tilted trough becomes the next fixture in our weather pattern.

And a hearty thanks to HeeHaw, Sroc, Mugs and all the others who added their analysis and updates throughout the week!

Beautiful blanket of snow on the ground under sunny skies. 27* and windy with a wind chill of 12*. Temp will not rise much today at all then tomorrow will struggle to get to the mid20s. Bundle up!
Christmas Eve flurries still on the table?

About 2.5"-3" here from the overnight. Pretty way to start the weekend!

Not my most scientific measurement but just over 3” at my place.

by **nutleyblizzard** Sat Dec 21, 2024 8:44 am

Woke up to 3” this morning. More than I expected. Good start to winter!

by **mmanisca** Sat Dec 21, 2024 9:23 am

Looks like my final total here in Deer Park is 2 1/4 inches. Not bad! Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
My Twin grandkids are watching this while my daughter is playing Somewhere in my memory.. Gotta get the grandkids liking snow at a young age!

Hello everyone. New member again

. Hopefully the vet lets me slide. Miss you buddy! Here’s a few pictures. 3” on the nose just north of the LIE near the Nassau/Suffolk border on LI. Hope no one has to “drive home from Connecticut!”

1/2” per hour from 2 am till 8. Watched every flake fall

by **Frank_Wx** Sat Dec 21, 2024 11:20 am

I’ve been consumed with life that I hardly tracked this one. Was surprised to wake up to SNOW. Took a walk to my local coffee place and enjoyed every minute of it

Final tally of 3.8 inches. Best Christmas gift possible plus near zero cold tomorrow night. After several years of waiting finally a December that looks and acts like December.

by jurzdevil Sat Dec 21, 2024 11:43 am

just about 5 inches total here

This is the best Christmas gift for me, solid snowpack, bitter cold and a possibility of snow showers on Christmas Eve! Will be adding snowpack days up here this week.What a wonderful 24 hours it was tracking and observing this event with the Board!

Right now 24 degrees, partly cloudy ,very windy with blowing and drifting snow.

App says 25 mph, but didn’t really seem that high to me when I was outside. Now I’m down in Bayville, exit 80, and there’s no wind…and no snow either!

by **Irish** Sat Dec 21, 2024 2:09 pm

Got about 3 by me in Old Bridge. But my favorite part of the updates is when Sroc updated us with his pics and his dog is pinching one off in the background.

by **Dunnzoo** Sat Dec 21, 2024 3:04 pm

3" here in town. Luckily it looks like most places were cleared pretty well and the sun dried the roads and sidewalks. Should be less re-freezing tonight, but I'm sure there will be some patchy ice. Nothing left to do now but wrap gifts and make cookies!

by **HectorO** Sat Dec 21, 2024 3:44 pm

About 3 and 1/2 in of snow here in Ridgewood New jersey. It's actually pretty cool because my sister and nephew came up from Florida and got to see snow. And they leave Monday so they're getting frigid blasts the next couple days to give them a little Christmas spirit before headed back south.

by **dkodgis** Sat Dec 21, 2024 4:01 pm

21 here. Gusts to 35 mph. The driveway is treacherous in spots. What is left, froze. Inside, wrapping Xmas and Hanukkah gifts (blended family). If these four inches (well, less on the blacktop) had not been cleared, we’d have a skating rink up here
