Storm Slowly Winds Down. High Winds Continue…

 

Synopsis:

The storm that plagued our region with heavy snow, sleet, rain and wind will continue to move toward Eastern Long Island and off the New England coast this afternoon and into tonight.

Yes, I busted over a large part of the tri-state area with snow amounts. I’ll always admit a bust. It happens. Meteorology is a fluid science with the atmosphere constantly in motion and some parameters go by undetected. The NAM outperformed all the other models with this storm . I truly believe that many of us in this field, including myself, did not put enough wait on this model. With that being said I have milk and eggs for sale at the Marshall residence for half price!

The heaviest precipitation will move North and East of the City this afternoon.  Scattered areas of light snow will be left behind the departing system (the what to expect map is above).

Stay safe and please clear the walkways before it all refreezes.
