remember that clipper storm more then a decade ago that dove all the way to south carolina then rapidly intensified to a blizzard and produced close to 40 inches on eastern long island nyc only got about 10 inches we need that kind of clipper..
accuweather was wrong for days they predicted 4 to 8 for the city and said if the sleet is delayed we could get a foot for the city.. the sleet was not delayed any nyc reached over a foot..
