Rain most of the time with sleet in the heaviest bands.

Isn't that somewhat like Dec 1992? We had mostly rain with temps in the upper 30s with just a bit of sleet mixed in when the precip got heavy.  Then some light snows at the tail end.

Isn't an east wind worse than either a NE or a SE wind?  Since all our coasts face the east, there will be a more widespread impact.

 

E & SE are almost the same both are worse for the s shore than NE

and why exactly would that be ridiculous??..you do know weather can be unpredictable at times. it's a funky setup really,but it's not too far away from being a wet snow/sleet maker for everyone,even at the coast.

It's not even close to a snow setup.

For sure, this is going to be the highest impact coastal event (erosion wise) since Sandy and probably the strongest wind event since then too

I've been worried about this for many days now.   This is prob going to be the highest impact event for the coast since Sandy.

Definitely colder and deeper run.  850's are even down to CNJ. 

this run would be really bad for my area. 

yea..it will be interesting to see how you make out.

I expect to get a a decent amount of rain and sleet at times on my street.

Possible snow at the end as the storm pulls away. (thanks Mt Holly NWS)

Winds still look ENE to me for the area on the NAM/GFS, so the highest flood threat will be on the north shore. The back bays on the south shore will still flood, but it should be minor to moderate IMO. The lunar tide cycle should also help to stop major flooding. The worst of the wind looks to be during the day Monday, it should drop off after dark. 

The beach erosion and wind damage look to me to be the biggest story. The beaches will take a big pounding and we should have gusts over 60 mph near the coast. That will cause some power outages for sure. I'm not too worried about trees where I am given how many were knocked out already by the 2010-2012 storms.

How is this going to be windwise compared to March 2010?

 

Overall pretty similar. Except for a swath of the south shore of nassua that saw enhanced winds with 2010 and saw hurricane fource gusts. JFK gusted to 78 with that. I'm thinking wide spread gusts into the 60s

you'll def be snowier than that.

with it's very slow movement as it crawls north, we'll have to start worrying about it possibly stalling out.

 

btw, look at this line guys.   practically unseen in January

Yes we had gusts over 70 here and saw lots of power outages and electric sparklers.

Yes I know this isn't snow, but for a model that counts sleet as snow, and a 21" printout in Orange County is saying something about the dynamic of this storm.. I'll post the ptype accumulation map when it comes out showing how much of what

Also noted over the Highland Lakes/West Milford area in NJ

We did? In Malverne?

I noticed a pretty steep dropoff in the tree damage north of the Southern State from that storm. The really strong winds were pretty localized to the shore areas, where they were able to mix down. Outside of there it was a fairly pedestrian event, I remember it being very rainy, like 3-4" of rain which worsened the tree/power line damage too. In Long Beach it was ferocious for several hours, we easily had 70-75 mph+ gusts and many trees down with property damage all over. A section of town had no power for a week. We were very fortunate it didn't coincide with high tides.

Yeah I'm south of the Southern State but just north of Sunrise Highway.
