Peeps,
Time to get er  done.
Looks like what Frank said a 2-4" accumulating snow fir nyc metro and just outside N&W of Interstate 80 is 3-6". 
Cold arctic air stays entrenched and waa (warm air advwction (.warm air from a weak system sliding in from the Ohio Valley drives warm air over the dense arctic  air. When it starts snowing Friday night it look to bebabout 18-20 degrees.

I'd say a 2-4" snow too. All depends on timing, faster the waa arrives as the primary low is still far away the more yo the higher range you can accumulate, the slower and warmer air intrusion works its way north faster then the less we get. 
Right now I am leaning as most waa events occur ahead of the scheduled model, guidance time frame. 
Time will tell Momma. 
SATURDAY morning is not going to be good travelling at all imo and for me I get 2 snowstorms in three years on my bday wopop woop!!

Here is a look at 925mb temps between 7am and 10am on the 00z GFS. One reason why LI sees less accumulation is because of the above freezing temps by mid morning, while most of NNJ and points north are still cold enough for snow. NYC is right on the line. On the 18z GFS, this line was further south at 10:00am so a slight warm trend on tonight's GFS despite the higher snow amounts.

00z CMC shows 3 to 6" snowfall too. Looks like models are trending wetter tonight while cold air is in place. That could do with the frontogenesis models are realizing that exists between the gradient caused by the HP to the NE and southerly winds.

I am going to bed happy. I said we need to capitalize on the 12th through 18th period while the cold is still here, and at the least we're going to see 2-4" of snow Saturday. Possibly up to 6" in spots.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are def coming closer in agreement.  Looks like although trending a little warmer overall, the coastal plain has trended a little better as far as accumulations are concerned.  I would say a general 1-3" for the coastal plain and a general 2-5" the further N& W you go. The timing of the precip and the warm nose will be critical as it seems to from like -3-5C to +2-3C in less than 6hrs.  If we can get a burst of heavier QPF come in at the right time lillipops of slight higher totals could happen.  I may make a snow map for this one tonight or in the morning.

Any snow is good snow

Year ago I do not remember us relying so much on the short range models, like we actually somewhat trust in the NAM (not a model) and the others seem to have gotten better, and usually surprise us. So I agree sroc, will def want see what they show.
