D 1 Snow Report

FINESPLINE · 02-10-2013, 10:28 PM

An incredible amount of snow in such a short time in Suffolk county, Long Island. In the Smithtown - Hauppauge area 28 to 32 inches not including drifts. The prediction of the changeover from rain to snow was 6 to 8 pm but the cold front came in around 3 pm and caught a lot of people heading home. The LIE (495) , Sunrise Highway (27) , Rt .347 and 25 had stuck and abandoned cars all over the place and were still picking up abandoned cars as late as this afternoon. Many streets still not plowed. Rain supposed to come in over night through tomorrow. Will be lots of flooding as most drains are blocked by tons of snow and ice. Very interesting few months as we had a historic hurricane and now a historic snowstorm. Whats next out here ? At least I did not lose power and FIOS cable.
