SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
1030 AM EST THU DEC 10 1992

...WINTER STORM WARNING THIS AFTERNOON INTO FRIDAY FOR INTERIOR
NORTHERN NEW JERSEY AND INTERIOR SOUTHEASTERN NEW YORK STATE...
...SNOW ADVISORY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING FOR COASTAL SECTIONS
EXCEPT FOR THE TWIN FORKS OF LONG ISLAND...
...COASTAL FLOOD WATCH LATE TONIGHT AND FRIDAY...

A LOW OVER GEORGIA WILL INTENSIFY INTO A MAJOR STORM AS IT MOVES TO
THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST EARLY TONIGHT. THE STORM WILL THEN BECOME
NEARLY STATIONARY LATE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY NIGHT.

SNOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE STORM HAS REACHED PARTS OF NORTHWESTERN NEW
JERSEY. IT WILL CONTINUE SPREADING NORTH AND EAST ACROSS MOST OF OUR
AREA THIS AFTERNOON.

BY THIS EVENING A COUPLE OF INCHES WILL HAVE FALLEN OVER INLAND
LOCATIONS...AND UP TO AN INCH IS POSSIBLE AT THE COAST. ACROSS THE
INTERIOR THE SNOW WILL CONTINUE...HEAVY AT TIMES...THROUGH TONIGHT AND
INTO FRIDAY. 4 TO 8 INCHES ARE LIKELY...WITH CLOSER TO 4 INCHES OVER
EASTERN AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS AND 8 INCHES WELL NORTH AND WEST.

ALONG THE COAST THOUGH THE SNOW WILL QUICKLY CHANGE TO RAIN EARLY
TONIGHT AS INCREASINGLY STRONG EASTERLY WINDS BRING IN RELATIVELY WARM
AIR FROM OFF THE OCEAN. EASTERN LONG ISLAND...PARTICULARLY THE TWIN
FORKS...WILL SEE VERY LITTLE SNOW.

THE STRONG WINDS WHICH WILL DEVELOP AS THE STORM REACHES THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST WILL POSE THE THREAT OF COASTAL
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY AT THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE...LATE TONIGHT AND
FRIDAY. TIDES WILL INCREASE TO 2 TO 3 FT ABOVE NORMAL. THIS WILL ALSO
CAUSE CONSIDERABLE BEACH EROSION IN VULNERABLE AREAS. THE STRONGEST
WINDS AND HIGHEST TIDES WILL PROBABLY OCCUR FRIDAY MORNING...AROUND
SUNRISE...WHEN THE STORM WILL BE MOST INTENSE.

BECAUSE THE STORM WILL MOVE LITTLE ON FRIDAY...PRECIPITATION WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY...IN THE FORM OF A WINDSWEPT RAIN AT THE
COAST AND SNOW POSSIBLY MIXING WITH SLEET INLAND. AN ADDITIONAL 6
INCHES OF SNOW IS QUITE POSSIBLE IN THE INLAND LOCATIONS.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR COMMERCIAL RADIO OR TELEVISION FOR

I got 24 inches but I didn’t experience a single flake. I was in the hospital near death from a blocked artery. I didn’t even get to see it out of a window ad the room I was in had no windows. 

Unreal. I’ve only had 1 good storm here in the last 12 years (2016)
