Richmond is the only city that got sleet, so this post is confusing? I mean, you might get to point and laugh a little later for DC, it's definitely close.

Good luck up there.

i hope we both get the same amount of snow because i want everyone to feel the excitement i feel now

good luck pal

Yeah, same man.  Slightly worried about that sleet line, but the advance seems to have stopped.  But its a way of life down here...we tend to mix with the biggies.  We'll see.

 

Hell, it might be an issue up here.  I am probably 7 or 8 miles (as the crow flies) from the Atlantic Ocean.

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...

-- Changed Discussion --

SNOW CONTINUES TO OVERSPREAD THE REGION FROM THE SW. THE NE FLOW

IS JUST BEGINNING TO PICK UP WITH SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 10KT MOST

OF THE CWA. WATER VAPOR SHOWS A SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE TAP ALL THE

WAY UP THE E COAST.

BASED ON THE INCREASED SPEED OF PCPN OVERSPREADING THE

REGION...WRNG START TIMES WERE PULLED BACK.

SEE BLW FOR UPGRADES AND MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FCST.

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

-- Changed Discussion --

THE 21Z SREF CONTINUED TO TREND UPWARDS...WITH THE SNOW PLUMES AT

KJFK AND OTHER AREAS SHOWING A MEAN OF AROUND 2 FT. THE 00Z NAM

MAINTAINED A CONSISTENTLY WET SOLN FOR THE CWA. IN ADDITION...THE

00Z RGEM AND 00Z GFS HAVE DEMONSTRATED A NOTICEABLE NRN TREND IN

THE PCPN FIELDS. THIS THEREFORE LENDS SOME BACKGROUND SUPPORT TO

THE POTENTIAL EXHIBITED BY THE NAM.

AS A RESULT...HAVE EXPANDED THE BLIZZARD WRNG UP THE COAST OF THE

LI SOUND...AND UPGRADED ALL REMAINING WATCHES AND THE ADVY TO

WINTER STORM WRNGS. IN ADDITION...SIGNIFICANTLY RAISED SNOWFALL

AMTS...BUT EVEN THESE NUMBERS ARE OVER A FT BLW WHAT THE

OPERATIONAL 00Z NAM PRODUCES OVER THE CITY AND THE REMAINDER OF

THE SWRN CWA.

THE 00Z NAM DOES HIT AT SOME TEMPS ALOFT AROUND 0C DURING THE

MIDDLE OF THE DAY...WHICH COULD INTRODUCE A LITTLE SLEET MIX OR

ALONG THE TWIN FORKS EVEN RAIN MIX...HOLDING DOWN SNOW ACCUMS. THE

00Z GFS IS ALL SNOW HOWEVER EXCEPT FOR MAYBE INVOF MONTAUK.

ON THE NRN FRINGE...THERE WILL STILL BE A SHARP GRADIENT...AND

THIS SHOWS UP ESPECIALLY WELL IN NEW LONDON COUNTY. ATTM THIS

LOOKS LIKE THE AREA WITH THE LOWEST SNOW TOTALS...WITH AREAS ALONG

THE TOLLAND AND WINDHAM BORDER POTENTIALLY STAYING BLW 6 INCHES.

Friend of mine with the MTA is saying that they will keep service going on elevated sections of the subway throughout the entire storm...This doesn't seem like a very good plan...

the city expected up to a foot when they made those plans now with possibility double that.. you can bet there will be subway suspensions tomorrow..
