  1. Oh definitely, I can see some people getting 20". I just don't think it'll be the city in this setup. It'll be a place maybe near I-84 where ratios are good and there's plenty of moisture. snywx, sussexcountyobs, ForestHillWx, where you are will be some of the best spots.
  2. For the City I'd say 9-12" with 9" in the Rockaways/JFK and 12" in the Bronx. That's about what consensus is. These insane model outputs aren't happening. I'd be thrilled but I'll eat my shoe if I get the 24" the new GFS shows.
  3. The strong east flow's a blessing and curse. Longitude west actually helps us this time. But we don't want a low stalling out just off Atlantic City or it's our turn sooner or later too.
  4. Twin forks could be higher than I have (4-7") if the front end overproduces but later on it looks pretty crappy there with the east flow/warm air that takes a good while longer to get close to the city.
  5. It's essentially consensus at this point. NAM/GFSv16 are awesome but those amounts aren't happening here. Amped/warm usually wins out in the end. And it's hard to forecast big time amounts when you're relying on a huge burst at the beginning. Ratios won't be ideal and oftentimes the dryslot comes in earlier than expected like 12/17. That could've been a foot here if the front end hung on for longer but it shredded up and warm air took over. Hopefully this will be colder than that one was but I'd say 80-90% chance there's at least some rain east of the city. Hopefully that happens when the dryslot is overhead and little would be falling anyway.
  6. My call for now: Central Park: 11" White Plains: 14" Danbury: 15" JFK: 9" Newark: 12" Middletown, NY: 17" Morristown, NJ: 16" Bridgeport: 12" Long Beach: 8" Islip: 9" Montauk: 4" Asbury Park: 4" Me/PSV88/NorthShoreWX: 11"
  7. At this point you're right, the outcome's fine here and the mix happens when the precip lightens up but if we keep this trend we'll start seeing rain eat into the front end burst too. Luckily we have such a cold airmass to start which should at least make for a very nice event for everyone.
  8. Yep, this has 0.3" or so as rain east of the city. Very nice outcome anyway but we don't want this getting more amped. Hopefully 0z shifts it back SE a little.
  9. Seems to love that initial front end thump but it seemed more amped to me. Low looked to get close to Cape May. That's enough usually to change the city on east over. But it would be after most of the precip fell already.
  10. The RGEM deepens the trough more and strengthens the low early which causes it to be more of a coast hugger for a time and also bring in warm air around from the east. It backed away from this a little this run from 12z but hopefully that continues and the trough can be more progressive.
