Clearly against the euro. They had to play catch up. Even a 1” storm could deliver blizzard conditions so its not all about snowfall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJHurricane Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Just now, nycwinter said: they are predicting between 13-18 inches.. If you view the Euro as being somewhat of an outlier, and GFS/NAM as being steroid outliers and weave in the other guidance, it’s a pretty reasonable forecast.

If you look at the weather channel forecast and I can consider them one of the most accurate weather sites, they have 1 to 3 for us on Sunday, 8 to 12 Sunday night and another 1 to 3 on Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's what im saying, the city wasn't prepared. Although the models also had the yips. Ended up with close to 14 inches here. After a prediction of 4 to 8 a day before.
