Between evaporational cooling and an extremely strong & persistent flow pulling down some very cold air down out of Eastern New England and the Canadian Maritime Provinces...the air temperature at WSO Upton has plummeted from 36 F to 28 F over the last 4 hours...with some very good snows falling at present out over Long Island.

NYC OEM reporting Upton saying this morning's high tide was approx 1 foot higher than they originally had forecasted. Lots of flooding in the Rockaways (approx 1ft and up to 2 feet in a few spots) Tides receding now. Let's see what they do with the evening's high tide cycle for the south shore areas.

Not as bad as this morning,but the next two days are worse.

Surface center near 37N  68W  @979mb, but 850mb low supporting it, is about 160 miles due west   37N   71W.   Maybe it can pull it back west some, otherwise it is going to miss the BM by 200miles or more.

 

Decent wet snow falling here.

 

Sandy Hook tidal flood info.   Looks like this mornings high tide exceeded the prediction.

With a sea surface temperatures on the Long Island Sound of 4 C to 7 C...and 850 mb temperatures @ -5 to -8 C....you are looking at a potential delta of, at times, in excess of 12 C...which leads to conditionally unstable air and definite enhancement of snow as the northeast winds continue to whip off the Sound.
