Upton seems to see this happening per there update at 550....

 

. As usual, there is uncertainty
as to how far north the system will reach. 12Z runs have generally
trended farther north, with ensembles suggesting a mean of around 2-
5 inches primarily for eastern Long Island and Connecticut, mainly
for Saturday and ending overnight. However, the model spread and
subsequent uncertainty still remains high. It is very possible that
a Winter Storm Watch may be needed in later forecast updates

Look at the 250 mb jet streak that is showing you where its headed.

The STJ connection is why this is so wet , you are getting a PNA spike so there are height falls up the EC 

 

This is 6 to 12 from the city E .

Ratios are 15 to 1 and youre snowing in the teens .

Highest totals E.

I dont even look at a precip grid the VVs show me where the max will go off .

Just curious if this is your call for the second system or you're just describing what the NAM output is.  And if it's your call, how much of the call are you basing on the NAM vs. other observations and/or model output to date?

I like 6 from both waves at KNYC.

Out on Orient point.  This is .75 to an inch for him and I working off the premise of 15 to 1 .

- 15 at 850 with deepening LP .The VVs look good and that lift and those mid levels support 15 to 1 

 

I like the NAM and the RGEM here .

I have ignored the GFS its just chasing convection off OBX 

 

Same error for 2 decades

Gotcha, thanks.  Hope you're right, but that's certainly an aggressive call...

A foot of snow and howling winds at the lighthouse. Sleigh ride into the Atlantic?

Sick storm for the cape and islands. This could be a legit blizzard there and expeciallt Nova Scotia. For everyone else getting too excited is setting up the potential for a major let down. Until  we see some run to run consistency this could go either way. 2-4" looks like the best call now

2-4 is heck of a lot better than the two flakes we were supposed to see it the same time yesterday. We are certainly heading in the right direction
