Damn no, Docstox has you beat and you could be oldtimers kid. I think Dodgis is also early 60's.

Somebody should seriously print this out and frame it, because we may never see these words spoken again ahahaha

This should be framed. It's like the Cubs winning the World Series. I can't go to sleep. Have to keep watching this storm. May take a short nap later. Decided it will be too dangerous to go to work @ 7:30

Oh NOOOOO, the NAM....... party

Probably 2-3 year lurker here, did visit the ch. 7 pages a bit too. Winter weather fan only. Appreciate the insight and passion found here regularly. I hope by this time tomorrow we're all in the same mood and digging out.

But because I remember last year, and I see the same trace of snow on cars as I did then.. What's the probability of this not matching the totals that everyone has come to accept?
Have we gotten so close to the event that it would be highly unlikely for it not to verify this way?

Is the "heavy" period we're expecting tomorrow something that could be shorter in duration than projected now, or would something else be the reason? I can't imagine it just being light snow, seeing how intense everything is south of us.

All right CP. at least I know where I stand. I'll just be a "senior" member.....

Mike to answer that our experts ( and I'm not one of them) really need to know where you live. If you're from Albany things don't look good, if you live in CNJ you could be in the sweet spot.

Sorry, I thought my profile said where I lived. Astoria, Queens.

I was always expecting 6" from this, hoping for more. So my question was about the 12-18" expectations for NYC now.

Telling you this right now, for those of us in SNOW MAN, Doc, and CP country (and myself), the old-timers used to say when it rains on the coast, you're gonna get it good. If they're mixing already, this may be coming more north than current guidance suggests. Time will ultimately tell, but that's a good sign for us well north and west.
That is odd, literally the surface, 925mb and up are all frigid. Whats your temp? I am at 27.

Current temp is 28 and still a mix precip. Makes no sense...

Most of the SR and LR models seem to be pretty confident NYC sees at least 12 and the consensus now is around 16-18.

Thanks oldtimer, same here for you. Lets not have any mixing issues there like a couple of places along the jersey shore are having.
