OKX AFD:

Operational 00Z GFS and ECMWF continue to come in a bit farther
north with the low track. Ensembles still support a low track
well south of the area Sunday night into Monday, but the ECMWF
ensemble mean is slightly farther north and a couple of mb
stronger than previous run. The GFS ensemble mean is generally
the same track as the previous run, but also a couple of mb
deeper. The respective AI models are also a bit farther north,
now introducing some QPF into the forecast area, whereas
previous runs did not. This is likely due to the slightly more
amplified northern stream shortwave that allows the surface low
off shore to strengthen, bringing in more moisture into the
region. Chances for at least some minor accumulations have
increased. However, if the operational GFS verifies, we could
see high end advisory level snow across NYC, Long Island, and NE
NJ. Did not want to jump on board with something as drastic as
the GFS just yet, but if the northward trend continues, higher
snowfall would be expected. Right now, a 1-2" (closer to 1",
though locally higher amounts of 2" or slightly higher are
possible) is expected for much of Long Island, with all other
areas under an inch.

Models honing in at least a 2-4" storm, but very close to a biggie

it will look like even more is on the ground because there still will be a thick layer of ice/snow underneath it plus side streets here are not fully plowed closer to the curbs with some cars still stuck in the ice
