  1. There's a pretty high floor with this system because it's so large with tons of moisture and very cold air but the question is the phasing which would create a much higher ceiling. This doesn't feel like a thread the needle situation that we usually see in these parts with an all or nothing scenario.
  2. PDII was a two part system but, yes, it's rare to get a two part wallop at the coast especially
  3. February 2010 was one of the most painful times for me as a snow lover. This one is giving me those vibes unfortunately but plenty of time left for changes obviously.
  4. That's what gives me a bit more confidence. These large sprawling long duration events are generally more accurately modelled than the thread the needle faster moving ones. As of now, it's just nice to have something to track.
  5. Give us this look in 2-3 days and I'll get excited but when you see a model consensus on a big storm in the vicinity even if it's still almost a week out it definitely deserves attention.
  6. I'm very concerned about suppression, that's some serious cold pressing down this weekend. As is the case most of the time with these patterns, the best chance for a big storm is when the pattern relaxes a bit but at least we have some tracking to do in the meantime which is a god send after 3-4 winters of not even mere tracking.
  7. Radar looks pretty good to me. Steady light snow now sticking everywhere, looks nice and wintry.
  8. Good tip, I just tried that and you're right. I actually do most of my Americanwx browsing on my phone but I usually look at it vertically except when I'm watching videos. As an aside, snow finally starting to stick in Whitestone now that the rates are picking up a bit.
  9. Oh that's right, good point. I didn't take that into account
  10. It's right there in my location, right to the left of this post haha. Whitestone
  11. I didn't expect it to accumulate on all surfaces so quickly but that's what heavier rates will do for you especially in January.
  12. I did not expect this, I went into the store with just wet ground and a few flurries and a half an hour later... This was about a half hour ago, it's approaching about 2" now. Very nice surprise
  13. I may have jumped the gun. Just went out there and it's about 3" and the heaviest of the night is coming down now and piling up quickly, hoping to get 4-5 out of it.
  14. It looks nice outside but it's definitely on the low end of the 4-8" predictions, lower than that actually. We had 1-2 hours of moderate snow and that's about it. We'll see how the rest of the night plays out but it's been a pretty lame storm overall.
  15. Snowing pretty good in Whitestone. I'd say at least a couple of inches and snowing moderately
  16. The North Shore of L.I. always does well compared to the city especially in Suffolk.
  17. Sleet mixed in here now with the rates lightening up a bit, not a great sign for us in and near the city. Those of you on Long Island are going to cash in nicely.
  18. Snow came in like a wall here in Whitestone, everything covered immediately. Looks beautiful out there.
  19. A little burst to coat everything about an hour ago, just flurries since
  20. Light powdery snow here in Whitestone, immediately sticking to everything unlike last storm
  21. That seems a little high but Upton usually plays catch up at the last minute or even during the storm. I think 3-6" is a good call
  22. Insane line at Stop & Shop. You'd think this was Boxing Day Blizzard Part 2 smh
  23. There's not one other model that has jumped as far north as the nam, the jumps in the other models have been far more subtle. With that said, the north trend is a common occurrence so I would expect at least a nudge north by the other models and for the heaviest snow to go further north. Still, a 2-4, 3-5 inch storm for the immediate metro is nothing to scoff at.
