It's not like the city has never seen good snowstorms when it's been 33-34 at the surface, however these rates are just not going to do it with these temps.
I thought 1-3 was a good call, at this point it would be a miracle
This was not a normal storm in any shape or form, I never liked this setup. Unless you were in the perfect spot you were going to find this storm very frustrating.
This is going to be so hit or miss, later today you will have people in some locations screaming wow and others screaming bust even though logic tells you sign up for the 1-3 and a small area will get the better banding
What I liked about this run is it was pretty widespread with the QPF, hoping everyone can cash in so it's not a situation where everyone outside of one narrow band gets an inch.
There is no way NYC would actually get warning snow if that run played out like that. NYC is going to need heavy precip to get warning snow with temps that marginal and a wet ground
