Whether the sleet line makes it into the NYC area later on or not, enjoying a heavy and relatively high ratio snow now in the UWS, pretty awesome stuff!
Reports of some snow already in DC/MD area and radar showing some returns up to C NJ (maybe some Virga). Perhaps an earlier start time is on the table?
Seems like a BM track, what's causing the mix?
Lack of a fresh High supplying cold air or not strong enough of a storm to generate its own? Something else?
For snowmaps, it depends on how knowledgable people are about the weather (more so meaning less gullible). Doubt a majority on this forum would believe any of them verbatim 5-6 days out but for the gen public? Different story all together!
