Hi all, this is my first post, and unfornately not an optimistic one for friday's storm.  This looks to be a rainstorm only for NYC and even areas immediately north and west (rockland, westchester and bergen) counties.  Those counties may start off as snow on thurday night, but even they go over to just plain rain as surface temps approach 40 degrees.  This is a wintry/snow event for areas over 50 miles north and west of NYC.  Definately does not look to be a NYC metro area snowstorm.

it can trend to bermuda and it would still be rain given that setup. When you have a northern low cutting across northern nys its very unlikely a snowstortm will happen

Yeh Mid levels warm , so even to the BM . you get easterly flow and the column is disrupted.

the northern low would bring southerly winds. Till that coastal fully takes over, that would be when the winds switch to northeast or northerly component,

My argument is , that once the max passes to my south and east , and i get backed around , the precip is just about gone . So its a below normal feb day temps wise , with a storm running to the BM and I still rain . happens .

EXTENDED FORECAST DISCUSSION

NWS HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL PREDICTION CENTER COLLEGE PARK MD

1001 AM EST MON FEB 04 2013

VALID 12Z THU FEB 07 2013 - 12Z MON FEB 11 2013

RELIED ON THE 04/00Z ECENS MEAN FOR THE MEDIUM RANGE FRONTS AND

PRESSURES THIS FORECAST PACKAGE. THE ECENS MEAN HAS BEEN STABLE

FOR FOUR MODEL CYCLES NOW WITH THE FLOW ACROSS THE WESTERN AND

CENTRAL UNITED STATES--QUITE PREPOSSESSING FOR THE OUTCOME OVER

THOSE PORTIONS OF THE NATION. ALONG THE EAST COAST, THE ECENS MEAN

HAS BEEN TRENDING MORE SUPPRESSED WITH THE WAVE EMERGING OVER THE

ATLANTIC DAY 4. THE 00Z/04 DETERMINISTIC ECMWF BUCKED THE TREND OF

ITS ATTENDANT MEANS WITH A STRONGER LOW ALONG THE DELMARVA

PENINSULA--A STRONG STRIKE AGAINST THAT MODEL. FURTHERMORE, THE

OTHER DETERMINISTIC MODELS WERE ALL OVER THE PLACE WITH THE DAY 4

WAVE, WITH NO DIRECT SUPPORT FOR THE ECMWF SOLUTION. THE NEXT

SIGNIFICANT SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO CROSS THE WEST EARLY IN THE

PERIOD, REGROUPING OVER THE PLAINS AND MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY DAYS

6 AND 7. NO SIGNIFICANT ARCTIC OUTBREAKS ARE INDICATED THIS

PERIOD, SO SEASONABLY MILD CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED MOST AREAS.

I think we need to see the ensemble means as to position. This tends to be much more accurate overall.

In actual fact he said rain for "most of PA NJ" (that is if he was implying most of Penn AND NJ). If the northern burbs of NYC get rain to snow, that would include NNJ (Passaic, Bergen, Hudson). Not putting words into his mouth, but that's how I (and I think most people would) interpret as the northern suburbs of NYC.
