December 14th Clipper

Just started

Just woke up. Coming down nice. Slowly and steadily falling. Fluffy dry snow. Approaching 1” already.

Still dark out, estimating about an inch but will post a formal measure in a while.Lee had a good talk about clippers.My area usually is in the scroo zone for these as the western areas do best before the clipper weakens and LI does better as the storm intensifies off the coast.

Looks like some ocean enhancement over long island

at 6 am I have 19 degrees and two inches of snow. Snowing lightly.

Heavy snow now. 1.5” and climbing

We got a nice fluffy inch on the Shore.

Actually it was nicer to wake up to this than it was to endure that slopfest on Saturday...  

Light Snow Looks Beautiful 1.5 28*

22 light snow in Wayne.

26* with just a few leftover flurries. 2" of snow here. I'll take it. Keeping me in the holiday mood.

Moderate snow here in in H'dale and Allendale with 1" plus on teh ground at 24*

Just about done. A smidge over 2”. 7” for the season. Great start. Let’s keep er rollin

Accumulating snow over, 1.5 inch total.

7.5 inches for the season, December as it's supposed to be.

I'm at 2.5" now Very light snow 28*

1.5 inches in Monroe NY.Clouds breaking up, snow ended about an hour ago here.

definitely had to do some clean up. more than last storm that came through. maybe 1, 1.5"

1.5'' in Nutley township. Total of 6 inches thus far in December. Good start to winter for a change.

1 inch in Hyde Park, 6 for the season.

About 2.5" at my house on LI. Looks very nice!

I measured 1.2" of snow in Bellerose before I left just after 7 AM. So maybe a few tenths of an inch to add on afterwards.

I noticed that CPK had 1.2" of snow as of 7 AM with 0.07 qpf for a ~17:1 snow ratio. It had 0.02" qpf afterwards. The next time the NWS stations update is at 1 PM. Let's see if they measured before the melt/compaction took place. In past events (most notably 2/5/16), the snow stopped around 10 AM, then the sun came out so the melting was underway before 1 PM. So CPK measured just over two inches while they probably actually measured a bit higher (EWR and LGA had similar issues).

What a shock.....Between 7 AM and 1 PM, EWR, LGA, and JFK had their snow totals increase by several tenths of an inch. Central Park, no change(!) as the 1.2" snow measurement from 7 AM is the same from their 1 PM measurement.

CP, please address this!

seriously? 2 inches here only a few miles from you wow. Puts me at 7 inches for season already lets keep it going!

While I got two inches and maybe just a bit more, it ended. I think our white Xmas hopes will be dashed by higher temps and rain to wash all the snow away. The only hope for a white Xmas is...a storm! So is there one that will produce around the 23rd or so?
