8” of snow onto Long Island and even NYC proper gets to see some snow, really starting to cut it close for anything meaningful for all of us in the Catskills and Poconos.
Knowing where you are you might be really close to some big totals if some of the 12z runs are to be taken at face value. It’s gonna come down to a nowcast for you I would say.
Midday GFS remains relatively consistent, definite consensus on where the biggest axis of snow is: for the rest of us to see anything, the devil remains in the details
From purely examining what has emerged today I think we should still be fine to see 2-4/3-6 with up to 8 or even more at elevations. The Berkshires are emerging as the potential crush zone in this
In that case I’d roll with an idea of seeing 2-4/3-6” for some of us even this far west and into lower elevations with definite room for up to a foot in the typical elevations. In general, still have to favor elevations
That’s what I’ve been wondering all along. Those of us in this sub forum who aren’t elevated seemingly just miss everything. Elevated areas of SNE might be in position to get smacked here
What are your feelings about areas further west of the river, specifically into the lower elevations of the Catskills/Poconos; are we probably out of the game save for higher elevations? Beginning to think it’ll be much more elevation driven here than anywhere else
12z NAM tries to re-up the ante some, but I get the feeling most of us miss, even folks like me downstate who might be just a tad too far west and get fringed:
Finally starting to seem like models are converging to one common idea, devil will be in the details if my lower elevation in the Catskills will see more than 1-2”
Looks like at least the overnight model runs are in fact converging on a first consensus though, effectively now looking like you need to go far beyond 84 to see snow
Remember the catch-22s that make snow totals being that high highly unlikely, snow is definitely growing probable for your elevation. EC is otherwise all on its own when it comes to this.
