Typical click-bait headline. He says "potential", which is saying nothing really; headline says "likely", to get you to look.

This has to be one of the cloudiest couple of months I can remember. Just anecdotal but it seems like we get maybe 1-2 days of sun per week. Just very dreary overall.
-
Many had been saying (but seemed to have stopped) that until this weekend's cutter goes through the models wouldn't really have a credible grasp on how things may play out. Is this still the case?

I had the album. It was a giveaway from a gas station when you put x amount of gas in (I was 8 in 1969 when it came out). Played it until I memorized it. It's now available on Spotify.

I wasn't up overnight to see if it snowed but this morning there's no evidence that it did (northern Bergen county where the GSP meets Rockland county).
-
Sticking to everything here as well (where the GSP meets NYS). Our very small, very lightly traveled road was also pre-treated and it's sticking to it as well with temps right around freezing. In fact it started sticking in the road around the same time as it started sticking on the asphalt driveway (not pre-treated!). Not to go on a tangent but this pre-treating, which occurs now as soon as snow is mentioned, seems like a huge waste of time, resources and town money. Intensity easing now.
-
It's a weather forum and the double standard is mind boggling. Incessant "I hope it's right" cheerleading for snow is fine but showing models with accompanying analysis indicating perhaps why there might be less or no snow is just not to be tolerated?
-
As opposed to most others here who do exactly the opposite. With his analysis almost always included, I looked forward to a different viewpoint. It's refreshing amid all the "pattern looks good" and "GFS shows snow in 4 weeks" idiocy with no analysis behind it. Yet all are ok with that inane repetition.

They root for extreme cold and crippling snowstorms, too. How is this different? They want extremes. And, like winter, the extreme always seems 7-10 days out but doesn't actually get here (save for a 1-2 day surge). Personally, I prefer heat to cold so I'd take heat waves over cold, snowy winters every time. Yes, the lack of sustained humidity has been notable. It seems like there have been more days with deep blue skies already than many summers have all season.

Been using this mostly but not as good IMO: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=subregional-Mid_Atlantic-comp_radar-24-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined The regional on WU still works but you have to really zoom in: https://www.wunderground.com/radar/us/ct/hartford

What happened to the wunderground radar sites - they have all been like this for a long time. https://www.wunderground.com/radar/us/pa/philadelphia/dix

While 80+ would be nice, is not necessary - some sun and into the 70s for more than a day would be a welcome change.

This seems to be flying thru. Back edge approaching SNJ? Snowing here since 930. Everything but road solidly covered. Road wet with spotty white spots near curb.

It's vague when demarcations are not mentioned for an event (like 287, 84, Thruway, TZB, or "far N&W", etc). I grew up in Queens and had family in Rockland and thought of that as the hinterlands when I was a kid lol. And snow forecasts always seemed to be "more N&W". I've been where I am now (north-central Bergen county at the Rockland border) for 30 years and since it's not that far N&W but still somewhat so, I am often not sure when "N&W" is just generically thrown around how far N&W is actually meant. The way the crow flies I am about 16 miles from the GWB in Ft Lee, 22 from midtown Manhattan, 35 from the south shore of Brooklyn and 9 from where the TZB hits Rockland and a couple of miles south of due west of it. Following along here helps (I've actually been around since ne.weather but don't post much) and pros (Criag Allen, Lee Goldberg and Nick Gregory are really the only ones I pay attention to) do usually indicate distances/locations.
