That Red area on the 10:1 snow map is right over me in the extreme southern dacks.

You should be the board Jack. Hopefully closely followed by me.

I find it interesting the nam and rgem are on complete opposite sides of the spectrum right now and both have been quite consistent in their north and south solutions. The rgem did the best with the last one of these storms as I recall... atleast when it came to pinpointing the axis of heaviest snow. The nam wasn't too far off either with that one. Both were nw of the globals for most part esp the Euro.

Yeah, somethings gotta give. GFS splits the difference and probably has the right idea.

Euro made another shift south at 18z

Ouch. Not the trend I expected

Buf, Bgm, and Btv updated the grids. Now Albany sticks out like sore thumb lol.

They updated finally. 

Looking more and more meh. We'll see what happens, just want to use the snow blower 1 more time. The  68° and sunny till November. Right?

18z NBM... widespread 6-9 locally higher in ENY

I'll take 1" QPF as snow. Euro is a little concerning but you have to expect a late N push.

Other than it dropped the low from West Central PA to northern WV? Haha...and didn't change any outcome.

Such a weak system that's a broad ass "low" pretty much the same

Rgem pretty much solid for all..

I speak for @yankees102110when I say we support this solution.

I'm within the jack zone, so toss all guidance.

Might not seem like a big deal to you guys but I’m super excited for this storm. Have not seen a plowable storm since 2016 here in Delaware. Mid Atlantic winters are the worst. So I’ll be chasing this one up to upstate NY. Location tbd. I missed the last storm and was super bummed out. So this one means even more. Thanks for posting accu maps to help with the decision. Right now I’m thinking Albany is a safe bet although that mix line may have be going to glens falls or even lake George. 

What a out the blizzard about a month ago?

Pretty remarkable retention. I wouldve expected to lose much more since tiesday

Not much pack left but somehow it made it through. Still raining here but temp is plummeting and sounds like some pinging now. 

Somehow the glacier hasn't been too abused today. Pretty wild retention. Worked way down in Poughkeepsie today and felt like May.

What remains of the glacier.

Is it just me or did they change the colors on these maps to make it look warmer than it is.

100% traditionally orange to me meant high 60s-70s.

It’s almost an exact replica

Not even close, similar in WNY getting hit, yeah.

Really demonstrates your areas struggles. I’m still sitting on 7”. Huge mounds of iceberg snow. No bare spots. This was today

Impressive. I wonder whats left when I get home 

I'm in Queens and could legitimately wear shorts right now and probably right around 60°. By the time I get home tonight should be back into the teens yet here has the better chance at snow. Brutal

I don't think I've ever seen an April in my whole life where we didnt get at least a trace of snow.  It's way more the norm than the exception for Upstate.

Yeah, even NYC at least a trace in April is pretty common.

Looks like it gets progressively worse from West to East across NYS.  BGM might be a slight anomaly due to the airport's high elevation relative to other cities, as well as to downtown Binghamton.  Isn't the airport something like 1600'+ while downtown is around 800-900'?  That would sort of be like Albany's official weather records being recorded on the Helderberg Escarpment (Thatcher Park, around 1000') instead of where the airport currently is at around 300'.  Either way, I know it's hard to pick a spot that is truly representative of that area due to the frequent elevation changes. 

I will say, however, we've had pretty consistent snow cover since early January despite the low snowfall.  That's a departure from the previous couple winters where we've had a couple big storms, but bigger warmups too.  The 2"+ of sleet that fell the other day should give this some extra staying power too.

Yeah, Albany proper is a snow hellhole. I'm at 28"ish. Garbage but considerably better than them. I'm working across the street from the airport right now(leaving jobsite) and it's actually snowing lol.

Ended up with 6" sleet and snow. Plowed roads are worse than untouched walkways. 

Past 3 hours have really saved this event. High ratio fluff on top of that sleet on top of water logged surviving pack.

Every model had at least 8 inches here with some a foot plus, I have about an inch and a half of new snow. The snow line ended up 15 miles NW of me,  I think I’m signing off for the rest of the winter LOL. A tad over 20 inches on the season now.

I had 2" of sleet when I left. Started snowing but now I'm down in east Greenbush where the sleetfest continues. Absolutely horrible commute with the ice ball bearings impossible to manage 

Sick irony, starts ripping fatties as I have to leave to work way south. Ugh

Absolutely dumping sleet. What a waste.
