Winter Weather in Northern Nassau, New York

The northern edge of a band of moderate to heavy snow barely missed Northern Nassau with mainly a light accumulating snow across the zone. Amounts ranged from most 2 to 4 inches across Northern Nassau. The public reported 3.1 inches in East Williston, 3.0 inches in Glen Cove, and 3.4 inches in Plainview.

A mid level disturbance associated with a confluent upper level trough lead to strong mid level frontogenesis that developed a band of snow to the north of developing low pressure moving offshore. Southwestern portions of the area were on the northern edge of a narrow band of heavy snow that resulted in some southwestern zones reaching warning criteria. Amounts were considerably less to the north.
