it looks like we had some freezing rain last night.  car is coated in ice

Was the dampness in the air from the rain that went through earlier in the day then temps dropped so it all froze.  My job was a skating rink in mahwah, nj.  Like crystals shining everywhere from the lights.

Problem is on both Safari and Chrome I can see the option to 'Continue on Safari' or 'Continue on Chrome'...but it's always partially covered by an ad, so there's no way to click it (and no obvious way to close the ad).

If I refresh page the link to login works , logging in is the key

The 3-5" locally 6" the NWS has is probably the right call. Models for the most part backed off a bit from 0z and don't have that consolidated CCB look, and HRRR/RAP are pretty dry in general. We'll see if they moisten back up as the storm comes in.

This is when the hrrr seems to have the most trouble lately. When the event is almost underway

Temps are progged to be above freezing here (HPN)  till later this afternoon. Local radio met here thinking along the lines anywhere btwn 2-4 inches, before it tapers off by midnite. 

 

I dunno.  I’m below freezing now myself.  I think we do better than 4, but whatever it is I’m thrilled.

Snowfall totals are expected to be 6-8 inches for the warning
areas, which has been expanded to include Northern New London
County in CT and Eastern Bergen County in NJ. Snowfall totals
have been slightly increased along the entire coastal CWA. The
NYC metro will likely see anywhere from 4-6 inches, with Long
Island and coastal CT expecting 3-5 inches. It remains very
possible that any coastal area in the advisory see locally up to
6 inches of snow, and/or a subsequent upgrade to a warning,
especially if the 12Z guidance continues a SE trend in the low
track. This will also likely depend on how much initial mixing
of rain occurs and the development of any heavy snow banding.

3knam looks nice. 

Probably the best looking IMBY of all the guidance. It'll really be a nowcast to see where banding sets up. Since the moisture here is limited there could be a Swiss cheese quality to the snow amounts where the banding areas do well and outside there's subsidence holes. It might fill in somewhat at the coast is more moisture gets involved. But this isn't really one of your more dynamic setups, it's a quickly moving wave along the Arctic front. The storm's speed doesn't help building large amounts either, it's in/out in 6 hours. If your expectation is the 3-5" locally 6" you'll probably be good. If it's for higher warning amounts you might be disappointed. Inland like I said last night might compensate with higher ratios. Hoping temps don't spike too much this afternoon so we waste less on cooling the column.

Yep that's why I'm telling people 3 to 4 unless we get into some heavy banding. I'm hoping for at least 4

It’s 32 here in Hawthorne NY.
