I hate the word “tucked”. It implies “tucked in to the coast” which means rain for city and coast. A tucked in solution is bad for much of the forum (not north and west). 
 

a crippling blizzard for the big cities won’t be “tucked” it would be a track inside the benchmark

Tbf this run is pretty tucked into the coast and well inside the BM.  I wouldn't call it a "hugger" though.  Whole sub gets crushed and weenies fly but the jackpot would prob be nyc-n/w this run.

as of right now the timing for the immediate NYC metro is snow develops sometime after midnight Thursday and tapers off sometime in the mid- late evening Thursday and ends close to midnight so close to a 20 -24 hour event - lets see if there are any timing changes and or duration changes as we get closer and closer to showtime............BTW this is according to the 0Z Euro

why the big difference between gfs and euro? why are they showing diffrent solutions? who will win? euro is king no?

GFS is the outlier right now amongst most models and it handles the southern energy historically poor as opposed to the EURO -GFS flattens things out because of all of this and hence out to sea - all at this range but probably will come to its senses as we get closer to the event

GFS doesn't make much sense. We have a closed upper low west of us. It pulls the low pressure system right up the coast offshore as shown by virtually every other model except the ICON. Even the ensembles support the track up the coast. Right now IMO the odds heavily favor it not that it couldn't change. It could. But we will watch the trends. This could possibly be a KU storm with potential for a foot or more of snow.

The ferocity of the bomb that the Euro cooked up tonight can’t be understated.  Besides being an all out blizzard for much of the area this system can cause very high tides with major coastal flooding.  This system will be sporting an impressive sting jet on its back side as well (especially offshore).
