You still don't understand that Rockland and Orange Counties are part of the NYC metro area, or you just choose to ignore it, one or the other.

no they are not their upstate  ....wow that means buffalo and watertown ny are also part of the nyc metro with your logic....

You've got to be kidding me. Rockland and Orange Counties aren't part of upstate. Upstate NY is Rochester, Binghampton, Buffalo, Syracuse, Albany...

"Albany’s working definition of upstate New York is based on what lies outside the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s commuter rail area. Besides New York City and Long Island, it excludes Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Putnam and Dutchess Counties."

Ugh what could've been. Had the airmass been just slightly colder this would've been a MECS. 

I guess any snow is a win considering it wasn't even in the discussion a few days ago.

How is this not a MECS? I realize that this won't end up being that big of a deal for the major cities, but just the coastal flooding and impacts from the winds alone make this a major storm. Any many, many areas are receiving significant snow accumulations and others significant flooding.

With the occluding low, there are going to be "bubbles" of air wrapping around so that 850s could be all over the place with little regard to north- south.  The 3k is trying to depict this and you can see the result on the 850charts and in some of the NAM p-type charts (blob of snow over the ocean south of LI while LI and NYC rain, etc ), but queue the butterfly effect.  It may be correct in a general sense, but if it pins the details down, it's a heckofa model.

 

 

And so it comes to pass...

These rates ain't cutting it here around the 78/287 intersection. 

Same at the 80/287 intersection...white rain.

Winter storm warning in effect back home; received a text from family in Randolph, looks like a winter wonderland.

Should be a fun ride home up the mountain.

* WHAT...Heavy wet snow. Total snow accumulations of 4 to 8 inches with locally higher amounts to 10 inches at elevations above 700 feet and two inches or less in the valleys near Interstates 287 and 78.

I'm surprised at the bolded section.  I'm not far below 700ft, but don't expect anything near that.  Coming up the hill from Riverdale you could see a bit more accumulation, and closer to home the snow is more noticeable on the grass.

Stony Brook Road/Kinnelon Road should be getting popped pretty good I would think.
