Officially picked up 0.3" of snow at KISP. This is the earliest snowfall ever record here. The previous early snowfall record was Nov. 8th, 2010. The ocean kept much of central and eastern Long Island warm, helping the precipitation to fall as rain, it did transition all to snow at 10PM last night and ended around 2:30AM. The temperatures never dropped below freezing so the snow only stuck to the grass, cars and roofs. Places west of here like (NYC) received over 2" there compared to only 0.3" out here. Ocean temperatures remain in the low 60's.
