They don't have to.  They're just going to be really sorry if they don't issue them for I95 and the city.

The majority of the general public does not know the difference between a winter weather advisory and a winter storm warning. All they hear is "snow is coming" It matters to weather buffs like us :rolleyes:

LOVE!! 

 

The Winter we got cable, We had no snow and I never saw that graphic…it was 1995. Horrible

 

It wasn’t until the following winter that I saw that graphic all the time

 

They used to have good Christmas music during the local forecast too

You don't need to be a weather buff to know a warning is more serious than an advisory, Just like you probably don't need to be one to look out the window tomorrow morning and realize it's not worth trying to go into work.

I would bet if you went out on the street, and questioned 100 people the difference between a WWA and a WSW, over 90% would say an advisory means we may get snow, and a warning means we're definitely getting snow.

Thank you. I was just about to post that.

It matters to city and town municipalities, management and operations. The general public can make their own decisions based on forecasts, however the city and towns follows certain procedures which are based/take guidance and make decisions on operations based on the criteria.

Probably not but it’ll be nice to wake up to whatever it ends up as. I think I’m in a decent spot for this so hopefully it works out. Not huge totals but definitely enough as a winter reminder event.

I hate night time snow but it is what it is.

Did you know I didn't see a single snowflake fall in the December 2009 storm that gave us 15 inches?

I was up 24 hours prior to the storm waiting for the snow to start and fell asleep just before the first snowflake fell and woke up right after the last one did.

GFS/NAM now both with warning level snow into almost all of CT, wouldn't take much of a SW shift to get into even higher totals which I assume would happen if storm strengthened a bit faster.

locals are already talking about 8 inches for parts of Long Island and even 6 inches into parts of the city.
