Just a thought: Upton starting the blizzard warning at 6am would give Bloomberg more of a reason to cancel school and keep people from going to work. Call it activist or call it being over-cautious or call it bullish, I dont think blizzard conditions would really kick in until 6 PM rather than 6 AM. That being said, I approve of them going with 6am just to get everyone off the roads and out of work if they dont need to be.

I agree with the Blizzard Conditions starting at 6 PM, but an early release should be arranged.

Term number 3 please (in your sig)...likely one of the most underrepresented of them all...and possibly the largest contributor to rapid cyclogenesis.

 

:thumbsup: So often neglected and unloved... I just had to include it. Looks like we'll get front row seats as to why it shouldn't be left out..

Blizzard warnings for all of CT, RI, NYC and surrounding areas ,LI, and coastal MA, NH, and ME.

10-14 for the city, 18-24" for me.

Your first post certainly did not mention blizzard warning. You posted the word "always". Blizzard warnings are not issued that often.

You are correct sorry for that.

 

But based on the latest models it should be for W./E. Monmouth on north thru Middlesex.

Middlesex and parts of Monmouth are always a challenge in these situations being under Mt Holly. I always felt they should have remained with NY Upton. Either way those parts of Jersey look to do quite well. Im not complaining.

Yup, right on the edge there, along with Ocean County with the CCB. I feel bad for whoever ends up just west of that thing, there's almost certainly going to be big shifts in snowfall amounts over south central Jersey.
