I am beginning to think that these bands don't necessarily have much heavier snow but rather larger snowflakes. I had very small snowflakes most of the night and now there bigger and the radar picks that up.
Looks like about 3 inches, 31 degrees not to much wind yet peak gust low 20s. Looks like a very heavy band from the ocean ready to move across Nassau County

This is Montauk at the very end of Long Island, hasn't started yet but will be cranking later.
36 degrees here with an east wind gusting to 20mph. light rain. I am expecting about 18 inches here and wind gusts at my house between 45 and 50. Anything more will be an over achiever.
Both NWS discussions in Boston and Upton say NW trend in the past 24 hours with late weekend storm. Could be medel fluctuation and models should come into better agreement tomorrow.
