If the GFS is right and the mid level lows/banding go to town as it heads east off NJ, it'll be an insane few hours. Too bad there's nothing to slow the storm down but I'm liking this more and more. Glad to have been proven wrong on the N trend.
It’ll still be tough in Midtown to accumulate but the colder places in the city look to get crushed. And I think up near I-84 should still be good since there’s very often a northern fronto band with good ratios.
Models seem to have stopped the south shifts so looks like central NJ to NYC/LI are good to go. Finally a good storm trending the right way at the end!
Becoming optimistic this’ll be a good one for us. 2/28 last year was very marginal and we had 5” of paste. But we know the risks with white rain etc. The dynamics and snow rates with this one look awesome.
I'll definitely enjoy it and not negative whatsoever about it. Just have to be realistic about a storm coming into this airmass and we're still on the southern end of the good stuff. I'm getting excited for my area-the "sniff rain" zone like I said should be good in this storm. But southern NYC and the south shore could still be a ton of white rain. Head up to Van Cortlandt Park for this one.
Ehh, we'll see. Good trends tonight but maybe add a sloppy inch in NYC and maybe 3-4" IMBY, 1-3" south shore. Can very easily reverse tomorrow. If that Euro run happens verbatim it'll be a pounding. We'll see.
0z will be pretty big-if the south trends keep up I would think amounts should go up decently around the city/I-80 corridor. But again dump any 10-1 map and be thrilled if this covers all the grass.
