This storm is going to kill Anthony. He's in a really bad spot for this one.

 

I think the warmth is overdone.

Jamaica Bay is fully frozen over and the ocean surrounding LI is also frozen.

 

No reason for such a tight gradient. It's not that type of storm, despite what the srefs and nam show.

 

South winds will not affect the immediate shores of NYC (south Brooklyn, SI, south Queens) like a regular southerly flow storm would.

 

Ride the Rgem until proven wrong.

If you live on Long Island, particularly on the South shore, remember to clear your storm drains so that when the rain falls it has a place to go. 

 

HYDROLOGY...
THERE IS THE PROBABILITY OF FROM 2/3 TO 1 1/4 INCHES OF LIQUID
EQUIVALENT FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY. MOST OF THIS WILL
FALL IN A FROZEN OR FREEZING FORM...LIMITING THE HYDROLOGIC IMPACT.
HOWEVER...OVER EASTERN SUFFOLK COUNTY AND S NEW LONDON COUNTY THERE
IS THE POTENTIAL FOR PONDING OF WATER...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WITH
DRAINS CLOGGED BY SNOW...AS THE PRECIPITATION THERE WILL FALL MAINLY
AS RAIN. GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE RATE AT WHICH PRECIPITATION
WILL CHANGE TO ALL RAIN...THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY THE AREA WHICH
COULD EXPERIENCE PONDING OF WATER COULD EXPAND.

Precisely my point though brother. Yes the mid levels are warm, but SW surface winds negates the very warm fetch from the Gulf Stream and turns the fetch from mostly land and the colder shallow waters closer to the coast. Surface temperatures will struggle that much more to get above freezing.

It's a light S flow and the BL will be starting in a hole tomorrow AM so you are able to precip in a colder sector longer.

The models keep getting colder at the surface and in the mid levels. The highest 925 s at the park on the euro by hour 42 are 0 . The high res NAM is now 33 for a max . And the RGEM which was the 1st to this is the colder.

All of the other models are coming to the colder solution.

UPTONS 4 to 6 at KNYC looks spot on.

JAMAICA BAY IS 100% FROZEN.

Why would a southerly flow affect southern Brooklyn and SI?

Even if the BL stays below freezing, that's not the issue. The 925mb warm punch makes it all the way to the base of the mountains

Because there is open water south of Jamaica Bay?

And?

Sandy Hook buoy is at an astounding 29.5 degrees right now.

Fire Island buoy, 30 nautical miles offshore, is also an amazing 35 degrees.

Light southerly winds will not warm up the shorelines of the south shore.
