Inches x 10. Intuitive, right?

 

And IMBY, the NAM is mostly ZR, so that snow is primarily from today.  If GFS/UK/GEM win out, this map is conservative.

 

Thanks!

so what does those grey shadings indicate?

You multiply the number by .10 so it would be roughly 12-18 inches, depending on which shade of grey you are talking about.

Im going with 3-4" total for LI proper between the front end dump and end as snow. Although the models have cooled a good bit i still think we change to a plain rain for a period of time wednesday

 

Models like the GFS think LI is an ocean and typically keeps the BL too warm, even the GFS barely has any rain for us, the rain we get will freeze. I think we get a brief period of drizzle. Winds are ENE to NNE, that's not supportive of a torch and rain situation. GFS, which is typically the warmest model, has over 5" for all of LI.

I don't know about that rain at least for te north shore of Nassau. As long as the flow is ne we stay sleet and Ice this reminds me of the 07 sleet fests

It's on the warmer side of the guidaI tnce, I wouldn't worry all that much at this point. The consensus right now is that any ZR would be brief.

I think most will be frozen north of JFK we have to wait for this storm to exit for the models to pick up how stong the low level cold air will be. Esp the Higher Res models. I think a Combo of euro and gfs should be used untill 0z tonight. Also the Canadian always seems to be warm with these events, so im not sure how much I trusts its precip type map
