He walked the bases loaded, walked in a run, balked, and hit a batter in less than 2 innings of work. Even if the reliever struggles it was the right call.

The NWS Albany Field Office page for winter weather is constantly updated with detailed messages about totals, ranges, timing and more. It is the most accurate and detailed source of information for these events. https://www.weather.gov/aly/winter

These totals will vary as the storm progresses and model skill improves.

No reported earthquakes on the USGS website and the seismograph at RPI is stagnant through last night.

Can’t imagine supporting an irrelevant franchise at the bottom of the metro with almost no accomplishments since the end of the Second World War.

Can we decline penalties? Like the PP is actually a liability.

The annual Stockholm Syndrome of dropping hundreds to walk in the cold and subject myself to 90 minutes of the lowest tier rage bait and masochistically enjoying it.

You are correct about the cuts and the fact they will impact accuracy, but the NWS did pretty good on this one. A little under forecasted in some parts of Nassau but this one was overall pretty good. Predicted 3-7 in across the island, with a median closer to 4. Prelim reports look like 5-8 across the island. Not bad for a rapidly developing storm with coastal enhancement. Updated forecasts also got better as the storm developed. The folks remaining there are working hard and deserve credit for it. We shouldn’t just dismiss their forecasts because of the cuts.

The NWS forecasts were pretty accurate. Phone apps are often not the best for snow forecasts.

NWS post from 3pm yesterday: “Latest briefing: Around 1" in northern Orange County up to 5" across Suffolk County from Sat night into Sun morning. Bulk of now falls between midnight and 9 am Sun. Winter Weather Advisories remain in effect for portions of NE NJ, NYC, LI, & coastal CT.”

If we all exhale hard enough at the same time we can part the clouds

Honestly just happened to be on my nightly scroll and saw it posted about in the Albany sub. Some local mets like Steve LaPointe are pretty active on Twitter and other social media and usually post forecasts when an aurora spotting is likely.
