Same here in Manhattan now (UWS). Whether it's sleet or not, flakes were bouncing off my coat now. -

Me too (Pats fan here) but I have to imagine they would have been forced to postpone. Sending 65K people out into the heavy snow at 7 PM tonight up there would have been a disaster. -
Back from a Jebwalk in Riverside. Hard to get a good measurement but was convinced we were at 6” but measured 7” about 10 minutes later in another spot.

We rip.

Flakes are getting bigger, heavier here on UWS.

On my walk just now I’d say we safely crossed 3” of champagne powder on the UWS. Picking up. 1/4 vis.

Man, that escalated quickly. Enjoy guys. what a day to be in SNE...

Find someone to love and hold on to it like the UKMET and that weird snow hole over NYC. -

The NAM is the Aaron Rodgers of models Clearly ready for the exit Was always flawed but racked up some big wins in its career Problematic in ways that distract from its strengths (but fans like it for being "contrarian") People vigorously rooting for it to lose Still capable of some key plays that make it impossible to write off -

He must have meant 2” LE / hr at 15:1, which would be 30”/hr and indeed pile up very quickly. -
Just your average 960 low moving from s of LI to Cape Cod...

Perhaps because the storm is still almost 72 hours away? -

Welcome. I'm on the West side near the river. I suggest we average our measurements for a NYC total as we do tend to be a tad colder over here than the East side. -

I swear to god in the 80s in Mass every single storm (and there weren’t many) ended with a crusty glaze on top. It was fun to punch through it. -

We've also seen this play before. Most all of our biggest storms were "south" at this point in the model runs. Not a guarantee it will come north, but it's kind of like having, say, Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes down 5 entering the 4th quarter. -

2003 was traumatic for me (in Boston). We planned a PD weekend getaway to Montreal area and I tracked the huge mid-atlantic storm for a week sad I was going to miss the 6-12" fringe targeting SNE. It was only Friday when it became apparent what was going to happen. You know the rest. We sat in Quebec under -20 temps while Boston broke the '78 snowfall record.
