As was mentioned earlier, the Lake Effect is going to be in full force this weekend. With, apparently a WSW wind, the areas around Buffalo and Watertown seem to be in the bullseye.

Anyone City and east cannot complaint about this winter. Most from Eastern Nassau out east are at or above total seasonal average snowfall totals. 

Nice 3-4" from this overperforming event. 32" here for the season is outstanding on February 14. Anything from here on out is house money.

Still snowing and 29 in NW suffolk, 3.5" down

..about the same out here..29.3°..snow sticking on streets w/ no more solar influence..

Maybe Bill Evan's was right..poss 5" in spots.

...no big whoop out here..about 1.5" of snow ..31.5°..snow has stopped..been light all morning.

Bill Evans( remember him?..ch.7) calling for up to 5" here on the east end..NFW that happens!!

..very strong barometric readings..the old "banjo" barometer approaching 31.00..( actually 30.85"..not sure how accurate it is)..

Light snow in Wading River, temp has dropped to 14F --- was 29F at midnight.   That would have been the story - although i'm glad we got the snow to go with it.

Yeah..snow seems to be letting up somewhat..approaching 18" on snow stakes..16°..wind is ferocious..

getting to old for this!!

14" here in eastport & still counting.

You're not going to do too bad yourself. Time to get the snowblower and liquor cabinet in order. 

..what about the "stall" or "loop" that was being mentioned?..alot of the future casts show the snow shield booking east pretty quickly..not to be picky or anything..just wondering your  thoughts on that..

The Champ just became one of the Chimps.         The heaviest snowfall area has shifted from Cape May to Eastern LI in two runs.        I have been cut in half from yesterday's  18".      Could be game over.        NWS hardly even mentioned snow and certainly not a blizzard possibility on KWO-35 this morning.        This run makes them look like stars.

..still pretty good for us easterners.

KFOK @ 2°

Eastport @ 8°

Indications from the shorter term models show that the best chance for banding to set up would be from central/southern NJ across LI and on into CT and eastern NE.

SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

***Quick hitting system to bring snow Thursday night into early
Friday***

The main story for this part of the forecast will be coastal storm
system forecast to bring snow overnight Thursday night into early
Friday. There are still some differences in the forecast models with
the NAM being a weaker, farther south/east outlier while the GFS
continues to be a bit fast. Leaned towards a blend weighted heavier
towards the 12z GEM Reg / 12z HRRR/ 6z NAM. These models are a bit
stronger with the low and farther N/W compared to other guidance
that`s trended a bit farther south/east over the past day or two.
However given the set up of a fairly robust upper level wave and the
history of these types of systems tend to favor this slightly
stronger solution. Bottom line, we have become confident enough in a
fairly widespread 2-4+ inches of snowfall accumulation to issue a
Winter Weather Advisory for most zones, excluding the coastal strip
south of Monmouth Co, NJ and the southern Poconos where
confidence and amounts are a bit lower. Also, sleet and even
some rain could mix in near the coast.

In terms of the details, deepening low pressure moves northeast off
the Virginia / NC coast Thursday night in response to a strong upper
level wave moving eastward from the Great Lakes region. Snow
overspreads the region west to east late Thursday evening into the
overnight (mostly after 10 PM) with the heaviest precip likely
falling in the 1am - 7am period. While our official snowfall
forecasts remain capped to the 2 to 4 inch range for much of the
CWA, there are a couple important things to note: 1) This will be a
fast moving system with snow falling over just several hours that
will unfortunately coincide with the Friday AM commute. 2) We
still think there is the potential for an embedded heavier band
of snow with totals in the 4-6+ inch range. Uncertainty still on
exactly where this would occur but somewhere near or just south
of the I-95 corridor appears most heavily favored. 

For this
reason, this could still be an impactful event despite the
current snowfall forecast not being that high. This will be
monitored closely and if confidence for this increases, Winter
Storm Warnings will be considered.
