My latest video chronicling our recent lake effect #snow chase in and around Copenhagen, NY. Video is narrated, and I added radar animations, maps, and a little bit of info on how these events come together. youtu.be/iOqKxAD-1PQ

The snow has begun to stick here in New York City. This could be the biggest Winter Storm in 3 years for us. Granted with the lack of snow the last few years that may not be saying much. Up to 6 inches forecast for the Metro. Queens, NY Live Cam @ www.youtube.com/live/freGWuR...

We got just enough snow here in Queens this Christmas Eve for the neighborhood kids to go sleigh riding up at Juniper Valley Park.

Getting another dusting to a half inch of snow on Christmas Eve here in Queens, NY. Radar Trends show the snow will be winding down shortly however, but at least we will officially have a white Christmas!

Scott McPartland @nycstormchaser.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

The general consensus on the short range models are for about a half inch of snow for the NYC area tomorrow morning. I wouldn't mind at all a nice dusting of snow on Christmas Eve.

Scott McPartland @nycstormchaser.bsky.social · 21/12/2024

Beautiful scenes driving through Eastern PA today after the first snowfall of the season!

Scott McPartland @nycstormchaser.bsky.social · 20/12/2024

First snow of the season here in NYC. We could see some light accumulations late tonight and tomorrow morning after the arctic front moves through. Perhaps a trace to an inch in spots. Then the Arctic blast moves in for the weekend!

Out in LA visiting friends and spend some time along the Pacific Coast Highway at golden hour yesterday evening! Amazing views! #pch

A cold pattern is setting up for at least the early part of December here in NYC. Hoping for some scenes like these this winter! Taken a day after our huge day after Christmas #Blizzard in 2010!

#Winter is almost upon us, but the last 2 have been pretty void of significant snow here in NYC. I miss scenes like this! Taken during a mega lake effect #snow event back in January 2015 in Pulaski & Adams, NY

This thick smell of wildfire smoke from multiple fires ongoing in both NY and New Jersey is back in Queens, NY this afternoon. You can even see it in the air today.

Scott McPartland @nycstormchaser.bsky.social · 15/11/2024

From Summer 2009 right out in front of my place here in Queens, NY! Still to this day the best #Mammatus display I've witnessed here in NYC. Taken right at sunset. Note the plane flying underneath the base. Imagine the view they had!

Up here at Dave Lewison's place to reinstall the heated wiper blades on my Xterra for any and all winter weather chases! These blades heat up to over 200° when activated so ice and snow does not stick to them. We have a toggle switch installed that we can flip on and off.

Scott McPartland @nycstormchaser.bsky.social · 09/11/2024

So many wildfires in and around the NYC Metro the last few days it was only a matter of time before the smoke came over us. The air in Queens, NY today is damn near choking. Reminds me of the Canadian wildfires of June 2023

#weatherpicofday What an amazing storm this was. Taken near La Grange, WY on June 5th, 2009. Dave Lewison and I were just coming out for our annual chase trip and didn't make it in time to see the tornado that touched about 45 min prior. But a great way regardless to begin our 2009 chase trip.

Happy Halloween everyone! Going through some of my storm photos today and came across this one from May 27, 2015 near Canadian, TX. This #tornado barely moved and gave us quite the view for a good 20min. #supercell

To this day, some of the best storm structure that I have seen personally. From May 26th, 2013 in Nebraska. This LP put on quite the lightning show for us around sundown! #supercell #weatherpicofday

I took this picture in June 2007 near McCook, NE and didn't see the horse in the shot until I returned home to NYC and processed the images. Shot on a Nikon D70 with a 10sec exposure.

On top of the potentially historic lack of rain here in NYC, the dry weather of late is murder on the Fall allergies. At least for me.

TROPICS: Oscar is a tiny hurricane near Grand Turk Island. Winds are 85 mph. Hurricane-force winds only extend outward up to 5 miles from the center… tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles. Oscar will make a sharp turn to the northeast by Monday and is no threat to the U.S.
