This is very close to a nice front end thump for the city on the 18z Nam

 

Area just to the north and west of the city get a nice front end thump

City gets some snow according to NAM. 1 to 2. Just to north in Westchester and coastal CT 2 to 4.

I can't see this being more then an inch or so on the front end right now for the immediate NYC metro, further north and west a different story.

Like every storm I remember in the early 90's ( even the late March 92 twin storms changed to rain, but had a decent thump first )

surprisingly Cranky is going overperformer.. as is bernie Rayno, thinks the cold i undermodeled , cranky says high end snow totals, or better 

 

"More impressive by the hour. Between this trigger vort & the strong PWAT fetch developing out of the gulf - if guidance were to trend it'd probably be up with QPF. Aside from thermal related issues, think most snow ranged hit the high notes or exceed with this one."

I have to agree with this cranky guy I think this is a 4 inch snow event for Central Park followed by some sleet and freezing rain turning to rain. I think the CAD signature is always undermodeled and it ends up dropping the rain snow line way south of modeled. Obviously it will warm up but is this colder trend done trending? Besides the flurries we may get tomorrow around noon is a fresh batch of cold air from that vort that’s currently located between Illinois and Indiana. I think this overperforms. Billy you’re looking at a solid 7 inches. There won’t be any virga with this it’ll be like a wall of heavy snow for several hours dropping temps below freezing everywhere from eveporative cooling and dynamic cooling.
