We should all start preparing as we really haven't been in a true blizzard in a few years,extreme safety should be exercised weather its 5 inches or 25 inches in these conditions.As it's looking now all models have a bomb,all we need to see is how far due north it gets before it slows down and crawls nne..n.y.c might be a special location because snow will pretty much come in from every direction without stopping for more then 2 days,plus the cold air is already there unless your in extreme eastern l.i and extreme se new england depending on the exact track.

UPTON's latest, ominous discussion:

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...

HIGH PRESSURE NOSES IN FROM THE NW TONIGHT WITH CLOUDS GRADUALLY

LOWERING AND THICKENING AHEAD OF A CLIPPER LOW MOVING ACROSS THE

OHIO VALLEY. WARM ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM MAY ALLOW FOR

LIGHT SNOW AND/OR FLURRIES TO WORK INTO THE AREA PRIOR TO DAYBREAK

MON.

THE INGREDIENTS ARE THEN COMING TOGETHER FOR A POSSIBLE HISTORIC

NOR`EASTER AS A SECONDARY LOW FORMS OFF THE MID ATLANTIC EARLY MON.

THIS LOW UNDERGOES RAPID INTENSIFICATION AS THE LOW CUTS OFF ALOFT

NEAR THE MID ATLANTIC MON NIGHT...LIFTING SLOWLY NORTHWARD THROUGH

TUE NIGHT. MSLP DROPS NEARLY 30 MB IN 24H FROM MON TO TUE

MORNING...BEFORE GRADUALLY FILLING. THIS WILL PLACE THE FORECAST

AREA ON THE NW FLANK OF THE LOW WITH A PROLONGED PERIOD OF MDT-HVY

SNOW IN THE DEFORMATION ZONE. MOST OF THE GLOBAL MODELS AND THEIR

ENSEMBLE MEMBERS MEMBERS SUPPORTS UPWARDS OF 2 INCHES LIQUID

EQUIVALENT...WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS ACROSS EASTERN LI/SE CT.

THAT BEING THE CASE...SNOW BANDING WILL LIKELY EXTEND AS FAR WEST

AS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY WITH SNOWFALL RATES OF 2 TO 4 INCHES AN

HOUR AT TIMES. MUCH OF THE AREA SHOULD SEE A FOOT WITH AMOUNTS AS

HIGH AS 2 FT POSSIBLE ACROSS EASTERN LI/SE CT. ONCE AGAIN

THOUGH...THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE MOST INTENSE BANDING IS

DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT AT THIS JUNCTURE.

THE 00Z NAM CONTINUES TO BE AN OUTLIER ON THE EASTERN FLANK OF

THE LOW TRACK AND ITS SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER PCPN HAS BEEN

DISCOUNTED.

IN ADDITION...THE DEEP LOW PRESSURE COMBINED WITH STRONG HIGH

PRESSURE TO THE NORTH AND WEST WILL CREATE NEAR OR BLIZZARD

CONDITIONS ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION. A BLIZZARD WATCH HAS BEEN

POSTED FOR LI AND MUCH OF THE SOUTHERN CT...WITH A WINTER STORM

WATCH ELSEWHERE. POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR GUST OF 35 TO 50

MPH...HIGHEST TO THE EAST.

LIGHT SNOW DEVELOPS MON MORNING AND THEN GRADUALLY PICKS UP IN THE

LATE AFT. MDT-HVY SNOW WILL FALL FOR MUCH OF MON NIGHT INTO TUE

BEFORE TAPERING OFF TUE EVENING.

TEMPS DURING THE STORM WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 20S WITH WIND

CHILLS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO MID TEENS.
