RUC also has the bulk of the precip falling between 18z and 21z, then a dryslot appears to move into W LI, SW CT. not sure if this will actually happen, but banding will be important. hopefully temps fall quickly enough, because if the heavy snow ends before sunset, accumulations could be limited a bit

I think RUC is too aggressive with its northward push, it does that all the time.

...MIDWEST AND UPPER MID-ATLANTIC...

THE NAM INITIALIZATION HAS OVER FORECAST THE MID-LEVEL WINDS IN

THIS AREA. THE INDIVIDUAL VALUES ARE NOT SIGNIFICANT BUT THE

COVERAGE OF THIS TREND IS NOTABLE. THE NAM FORECAST FOR MOISTURE

DOES NOT QUITE MATCH UP WITH SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE NAM KEEPS THE

FORECAST MOISTURE MAX JUST WEST OF THE OBSERVED OVER THE GREAT

LAKES.

There's some rain mixed in at my house, but I'd say it's half or more snow. Just before in a heavier precip burst, it was mostly snow. The amount of snow in it varies by intensity, but it's definitely snowing outside here.
