Just to set expectations about how rare this would be...

There have been a total of fourteen 6"+ snowstorms after March 15 at KNYC since records began in 1869.

The last one was 24 years ago.

There has never been a foot+ and only four have been over 10".

We should be thrilled if we get 2-3".

1875-04-12 - 10.0"
1890-03-19 - 6.0"
1892-03-17 - 8.0"
1915-04-03 - 10.2"
1917-04-08 - 6.5"
1924-04-01 - 8.5"
1938-04-06 - 6.4"
1944-04-05 - 6.5"
1956-03-16 - 6.7"
1956-03-18 - 11.6"
1958-03-20 - 11.8"
1967-03-22 - 9.0"
1982-04-06 - 9.6"
1992-03-19 - 6.2"

What r u guys looking at? Euro drops low end warning snows from central NJ THROUGH NYC and Long Island? Am I missing something

I understand AllSnow's comment about it being weak, but it does develop as it moves North, and the area still sees some decent snows. I would think that it's 2-4 or 3-5" verbatim.

Agree. It really develops to late for us and even then it's not that powerful. It was a pretty meh run for a late season storm
