Delta! Not feeling it, huh? I like the set up but it looks a mess with that transition

In this contest I play on, the lake effect cities in NY aren't included based on discussions about a decade or more ago.  Reasoning is that the forecast is for synoptic storms and it becomes difficult to separate out what part of a verified report is synoptic snow vs lake effect in daily reports. So KSYR, KROC, KBUF are not included.

It feels just like December 16.  The precip shield will make a nice run up this way but just run out of juice on our doorstep.  Then the secondary will strip it all way, only to throw it all back but it won't get past Syracuse.  Same as it ever was.

We'll see, I'm not overly optimistic but neither was I then, the rest was literally history. After living in the city for almost 30 years I know the drill all too well. I'll accept what looks to be a 6" storm but wouldn't be surprised by much much more. Half the excitment is the tracking but the real glory is cashing in when guidance disagrees.

Well, in trying to win these contests, I've generally found that taking the under is usually a good plan.  And it's really hard to see where banding will occur, esp this far out.  On the Canadian there is a banding signature in the MDT, PHL, BWI area.  That is a wild card if it materialized.  If I go with it and it is wrong, I have a large error and pretty much blows me up.  And I could be too high in the NYC area up to BOS if the coastal front is strong and pushes inland quickly. OTOH, if the op Euro is right, I'm too low there as it puts out 2x what I have in and around SNE.
