There is a real trend to not allow any phase with the chunk of the pv over the ov...which makes this basically a southern stream system running into an east-west oriented pv "wall"...so naturally there is a trend towards coastal redevelopment. It probably decreases the chance of anyhing particularly historic for western and central ny...but still a very good snowstorm is likely i think.

Getting a little concerned that us far WNY peeps might be fringed.  Not worried about a complete whiff yet, but more like every single county in BUF's CWA is lit up pink under WS warnings, while northern Erie and Niagara counties are blue balled under WW advisories.  At any rate, I still don't think confidence for any particular area should be too high until the 0Z runs tonight.

One other quick thing I noticed perusing the 12Z runs so far.  The lake effect potential through at least the next 7 days looks pretty tame.  Not what I was expecting with the cold dropping in.  But on the flip side the synoptic stays active, so that's a good trade-off.  Maybe too many highs and lows ripping through during this period to allow the lake effect machine to kick in.

Looks like a lot of bone dry anticyclonic air to me.  Just crushing inversions and no moisture to work with.  Right behind these systems will get a little blast but nothing sustained.
