mine is weatherbell (JB) and the other is weathermodels.com (Ryan Maue). Could be some slight differences in calculation.
It's a H-U-G-E difference in calculation for Schenectady County. Holey moley.

Sleet or any kind of mixing isn't making it to the Mohawk Valley, no way no how. The furthest it gets would probably be a line from KPOU to KBGM if it even gets that far.
We’ll just have to see. KALY is disagreeing too now. I’m telling you, nearly every time they say “just south of here”, it makes it to the Mohawk line.
“
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... As of 940 AM EST...Warnings are out as we are in the calm before the storm. Latest guidance coming in has shifted a bit further north with the mid level warm nose which may result in a bit more sleet and/or freezing rain.”

Hi, would you guys say Glen Falls is up for a good amount? I know it wont get the highest totals but I am here stormchasing. Wondering if it's worth taking a last minute jog north westwards to somewhere a bit further from the freezing line at 5,000ft. The system seems strong with a more northerly track as a result. Feeling a bit unsure about my location.
I don’t think I’d move. There’s a small chance pingers could make it up the Hudson Valley as far north as the Mohawk River, which could include Amsterdam. Glens Falls is far enough north to be safe from that.

For the sake of the workers and nutty fans they’d be wise to proactively postpone.
It’s a 2pm tip, so the impact shouldn’t be that bad.

All models have initialized to cold with conditions at the surface and the system ticked NW again so KALB is seriously now in the cross hairs of screwing with IP/SN but I doubt any ZR but it may cut down on totals!
Yeah, as I mentioned previously, that over running almost always exceeds modeling around here. I may escape serious damage here in a Delanson, being north and west of Alb, even though I suspect we’ll ping for awhile, but Albany proper may lose several hours of peak snow time.

i think for giggles and as a friendly contest...we should all create our own snow maps and see who ends up closest to the tallies that will come from this storm
BUF- 7
Roc- 17
Syr- 18
Ithaca- 17
Tug- 16
Albany- 19

I just submitted 18.6 at Albany Airport in an office pool.

So I gather from these latest runs that the chances of taint reaching Albany have gone up. We'd been in the bullseye too long. Something had to give.

From WPC diag disc:
Preference: Non 12Z NAM blend
Confidence: Slightly Above Average
Model clustering continues to slowly tighten with each cycle, such
that confidence is a bit above average for the track and evolution
of the upper trough and surface low moving from the central to
eastern U.S. this weekend. However, the 12Z NAM stands out the
greatest from the relatively tight model clustering with its
surface low tracking faster/east compared to the remaining
deterministic and ensemble consensus. This is due to a slightly
flatter low-mid level wave in the NAM. The 12Z NAM also differs
with its 700 mb evolution across the Ohio Valley on Saturday with
a less consolidated wave. While the 12Z NAM is not a significant
outlier, there is enough difference to exclude it from the overall
preference across the central and eastern U.S.
Would have been perfect if they just ended their statement with... "It's just the NAM being the NAM."

If the low crosses the lower Hudson valley as depicted in the rgem, then we will sniff sleet for a little bit. I usually use the rgem as my last bastion of hope during SNE snowstorms where I'm on the outside looking in. Usually quite amped. If other guidance follows suit then will certainly be worth considering.
Thanks Mike. We'll see if the GFS and Euro make any shifts then I'll make the call.

Keeps Albany airport in the clear, as it's in the northern part of the county, but perilously close.

Wow. I think the RGEM is all alone with that much of a warm fetch. Although experience here is that the warm over running most time exceeds what is modeled.

So I have to submit an estimate for a snow pool at 2pm today. Closest to the tenth of an inch without going over at Albany Airport. I'd be interested in any thoughts from you guys. I'm thinking somewhere around 20, but naturally I'm waiting on the 12z runs before pulling the trigger.

Yeah Capital District has been sweet spot on most of the model outputs that I've seen thus far. I foresee jackpots in the high terrain along the I-88 corridor.
That would be my driveway.

Wow, you eastern Upstate guys are a patient crew. Haven't seen you guys on here until your first real winter storm. You will be able to show off your snow pics to those of us in the snow belts.
The Capital District... the snowbelt's ugly step child. LOL.

Looks like Albany/Schenectady area does well no matter which is right. Further south reduces the taint risk here at least.

Good for you Ottawa. You've had your share of synoptic screwings up there!
