Where are you located?

Walked off my connecting flight into LAX only to find them boarding my flight into JFK. We are actually taking off. We’ll see if they divert us. One quick look at the radar and I’m blown away at what is happing IMBY at the moment. So jealous. Enjoy folks.

Hawaii is nice but man wish you could make it back just in time, the winds are nuts, i find it hard to believe they can land safely here.

I drove all the way to work, only to be told to go home. I made it home just in time to see that mega band about to move in!

I hope all LI'ers remember the sacrifice you made, so they could receive this storm. Every January 4th should be celebrated from this point forward as Sroc day on LI.

8 in rock pt state pine barrens in LI wow!

Looks like the heavy echoes coming from the Atlantic will make serious inroads into Jersey. Storm must be correcting west as we speak.

Winds picked up and gusting over 30 based on my home station. Got to be over half a foot on the ground here.

Nice means further west banding here too!

Sorry guys since I last posted it happened two more times. Manorville is just west of Hampton Bays, like Syo said just before you get to the twin forks. About 65 miles east of NYC.

I see it coming onshore off the Sound, coming down pretty good now. Measuring this snow is almost futile.

Jersey shore getting crushed by those bands rolling in. At first I was thinking the yellow on the radar was sleet, but it's too cold for that. It's just heavy snow. Just wow.

There will be drifts like I haven’t seen since 83

Blizzard condition hee morning everyone.
Hey Math23x7 how's it goung?
DeBlasio made the right call and it ain't busting like you always hope things would.
Moderate blowing snow.
Heavy band swingong in.
Precipitation field on the Western flank is a bit stronger than depicted by some models.
Sroc safe travers my man.

This is the south shore of Long island at Babylon docks.  Bay is frozen..look like the Arctic circle with the winds!!
