It's officially over. I think the thread can be closed now.

[CentralNJSnowman]

Agreed that it's probably over as a threat for anything but minor amounts in a small portion of the sub-forum

Disagree that the thread should be closed.  Part of the point of doing this is to learn from it, so there's some value in posting the remaining model suites and especially posting what actually happens

online filled with dozens of articles claiming a big snow is coming to the northeast this weekend....i was like, did i miss something? worst offender? fox news. runners up; newsweek, accuweather. casual conversations reveal locals are all expecting another big snow, sigh.

How is it over when Euro brings a few inches to eastern LI and CMC is close? It's not going to be a blizzard but a few inches is still on the table for parts of the subforum.

There are like 50+ accounts on Facebook now of weather influencers that just post crap for clicks

I think this threat was over last night.

I'd still not give up on this NYC east...I don't think NYC is getting 8 inches but would I be shocked if they got 3 and Montauk got 12?  No.  Most storms in 2026 at this range I'd feel good about not seeing major changes at this range but this setup to me has too many moving parts.  I could even see places like SE VA/SE MASS having massive changes still....I'd not feel good in either of those places.

I’m not a Fox News viewer (Fox Weather, on the other hand, is great) or defender, but Fox News wishes it could be as unhinged as social media weather wannabes. They make Fox News look like Shakespeare.

Not to sound like a you know what, but my AccuWeather forecast which has said 1-3” for the last few days now says 2-4.  LI south shore Nassau/Suffolk border.  What do you think is their rationale?  
 

Edit: they’re not hyping nor even mentioning our area being impacted, just matter of factly have a 2-4 out there for Saturday night

i don't even bother with these influencer types; anyone can just go to the nws site and click their town and get a reasonable idea of what is going on; it may be a little off, but it's far better than the clickbait out there. the one map i saw with bernie rayo clearly had a good chunk of nj getting snow. i didn't click on it. i already knew from reading here this was a no go.

Here's a cynical take: So if anywhere on the island gets accumulating snow they can say they called it.  They probably have forecasted little or nothing nearby so that if that happens, they can say they called it.  

Don't know if that is true, but false verification has become a national pastime.

The NWS website could use a user friendliness improvement. I mean, it's plenty user-friendly us on here, but for the smooth-brained folks who believe everything they see on Facebook or the news outlets, ease of access isn't great.
They really should develop their own app. Not just a mobile link to their mobile-friendly site, a real app. All we have now are 3rd party apps using NWS data. That needs to change

Per the Department of Commerce's new overseers: Why should we spend money on website improvements or an app when people can just get their weather forecasts from FaceBook or Twitter.
