If this is an Ocean/ Monmouth/LI special we won't see a whole lot in our neck of the woods, like a 2-4, unless we go 4-8 and they go higher. Seen this set up a lot of times in recent years. East is not good for us, nor is too far west. We straddle the storm lines, it seems. 

Same in southern westchester but usually do better with storms that favor eastern locations than marginal setup.

I fully expect a bump west in track.

Friday afternoon 509PM: Title change dropped late 6th-early 8th and reworded Description.  NAM/GGEM/RGEM are tending to be the most robust of the models with a warnable 6-12" event LI and NJ basically s of I78 with lesser amounts north.  Banding and decent snow growth may permit this but ensembles and other modeling indicate a little less. I think the minimum snowfall in our NYC subforum counties will be 2".  Am not too worried about sleet on the southern edge for our area. Bottom line, shovels and snowblowers will be needed  before the Super Bowl and safely keep those hydrant areas cleaned, and gutters from having dammed up meltwater icicles.  Flat roofs might have some structure problems if the water content of the remaining snow exceeds limits (unknown to me). If removing snow, especially roofs/gutters-----safety FIRST.  

Walt- I have 24 inches still on the ground in Macungie?  Snow loads are rapidly becoming problematical in the LV as two major building have been destroyed and a Amazon warehouse under construction had to be evacuated. Do you see another 6-12 for us in the LV?

I think the metro is in a good spot for this.

There's still some wiggle room for a western push from most of the models.

I think we'll get 6-10" with local spots near a foot. 

Lee Goldberg mentioned an 8" jackpot somewhere between S CT, W Nassau and Monmouth county and a very photogenic all day snowstorm with heavy snowfall rates in the middle of the day.

Not liking it. The goods get going too far east.

it doesn't look right.....note where the position of the low is....the heaviest precip is going to be NE of the low?  That low is going west of the BM on that track and MVY should be changing to rain based on that track with heavy snow further to the west.

it can only come so far north with the arctic front right behind it....

it reminds me of one of those classic early 90s storms that literally came out of nowhere, all day photogenic snow before we had a brief arctic shot.....back then these deals would dump about 4-8 inches, let's see what this one does.

it caught my ear too.... the first time in my life I've heard Western Nassau jackpot lmao

"Stay tuned at 11" was the tag at the end to tell us "where I paint the snowfall jackpot"

 

 

Is that the same Lee Goldberg that had NYC 6-10 24 hours before the last storm? Now they are getting specific mentioning western nassau? Yeah ok.

yeah he's been shady lately....I also remember last year he said that the city had snow in late May back in the 60s which was in fact a hail event

And guys please put the media/met forecasts in the vendor thread before Brian#s has an aneurysm. 

Shouldn't we do away with this anachronistic practice? I mean, we have pro mets posting their forecasts here, they don't have to go to the vendor thread...what's so different about someone  posting a pro forecast someone else made? Just food for thought.

Every model has over 6” for for NYC metro and east need I say more.  I am thinking 6-12

These set ups often don't favor areas of NJ just west of the city; at times the Hudson itself seems to be like a cutoff. Any thoughts on those areas; Middlesex, Union, Somerset counties? The geography of NJ can sometimes mean areas like Ocean and Monmouth do better and then the storm bands just keep moving east. I have seen this too many times to count. BUt hey, still digging out of 18 of snow and sleet here....
