the plus euro looks like a nice thump, the negative is it looks like it brings ZR into NYC/LI

Ironically is the developing coast which shoots the warm layer up. We would have been better off without it. Would have flipped but more snow ahead.

I hate the 10 to 1 maps for southern areas. Ratios with the sleet mix will be less.

Hopefully the ratios start out above 10-1 when the column is still cold, so maybe we average out 10-1 before the sleet comes in. Some places north and west that stay all snow will likely average 15:1 type ratios given the amount of moisture in the snow growth zone and lift.

I don't mind changing to sleet but changing to ZR would be a nightmare. I agree the coastal is more north this run which is why even the extreme coast of eastern SNE flips to rain at the end of this run.

VERY bullish, 10-12" areawide seems highly unlikely but they're in the process of lowering the numbers little by little, they were at 13-15" yesterday, so I expect them to continue lowering amounts as we near the event. 

8-14 nyc east I think looks good

Plain rain creeping up to LI

It’s not going to rain on LI (plain rain) outside of maybe Montauk. This kind of cold surface air won’t be dislodged unless we had a strong prolonged onshore flow. I could maybe see freezing rain for a time but the back half of this storm is probably sleet. NJ gets that prolonged onshore flow so south of Tom’s River it might really change to rain.

Nice 6-10. Thats what we should expect.

Very close to better. Euro AI better, most short range keep it snow longer or entirely. I think small changes are possible that can make a big diff in totals.

I think totals will come down at the next shift. Maybe 6-10” for the city and coast. 10-14” is too bullish now. Unfortunately that secondary isn’t much of a help. 
 

I’m still very much looking forward to tracking this beast, even though it’s become a glorified SWFE for the coast

Exactly. Even an hour delay in a changeover could mean 2” extra.

It's good to keep expectations in check... and a 24 hour storm with 6 to 10 inches of snow and sleet (followed by below freezing temps for a week) would typically thrill everyone on here.
