Stash Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Here are the current forecasted totals for Upstate NY, with the dividing line cutting right through it. Much more uniform totals over Central and Western NY. Saratoga County alone is 4"-18". If that's mostly sleet at the southern end of the county, that could be equal impact to those higher snow totals in the northern end. Still 38 with light rain at the moment.

96blizz Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 One thing we have to embrace here - for those of us from BUFF to SYR and on northeastward - this is one of the rare storms that trended positively into our laps at the exact right time. Rare as hell!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96blizz Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Think it's pack whitening mood flakes for most of the day - with perhaps a lull - and then the intensity gets exponentially more from early PM forward. That's when it gets really fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96blizz Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Starting to get better flakes here. The NAM also is looking a bit more robust with the first wave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Got to hand it to the models on this one. Really locked in several days ago and didn’t change to much. Which performed the best (so far)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, good luck with your Ski trip, should be a banger this weekend. 40 degrees and light rain here in the HV. Wondering if our 1-2" might move towards 2-3 or something because of the shifts. I saw some pink on the map north of us in Ulster, kinda early for freezing rain. Conditions are obviously good here since its been all rain eyeball that transition timing.
