LAR-RY!! LAR-RY!! Let’s do this man! Skidoo, you too up there in the TR!!

Yeah, next tick will be nw. lol

did you mean to post this twice? it was posted several posts back fyi.

Nope...no idea how that happened. lol Scroll up and look what I did to the second one. It took up WAY too much of my time just now.

10"+!!! From Yonkers to Bayville!! Bedminster to Wading River!!  Cranford to Orange County NY!!

If it happens again, hit edit, highlight the whole post, right click, cut, then just put any letter in there. I think we lose the ability to delete if someone posts after you. Try it on the one you put the lines through.

Happy trails!

I wanna see a snow map from RB!!!!

Frank, where is your snow map?

Frank got so excited putting his together he had a heart attack.

I've learned and Frank works hard so this is totally joking. Arpund 4pm means about 6 hrs later.

He might have od'd on the copocollo.

He did also say he wasn't available this weekend to zoom so he is prolly busy.

Amazing how consistent on many models that jackpot in CNJ has been. I'd be surprised now if it doesn't happen somewhere within 30 miles of that spot.

Umm guys, the rgem just went nuts and stalled till wed!!!

I was actually expecting to see a lot more snow but I see a lot rain is pushed in on jersey coast even NYC and southern westchester which cut toals bad. It did shift NE though the axis of snow.

I am totally fine with my 18.7 there!

I was going to wait until Frank posted his snow map before posting this for three reasons:
1.) It’s his Forum, so I defer to him on almost everything;
2.) His map will be of higher quality (I’m sure JMan will reference his daughter’s water colors again lol)
3.) Frank’s map will come with more detailed analysis.
But since Frank’s map is a bit delayed I’ll throw mine out there to chew on as an appetizer before his main course arrives.

P.s I still remember stealing this base map from rb in 2018. Thanks rb! Much better than the one I used back in December.

So here goes:
Green: Mostly Rain. Snow at start and end but so much more rain as to render any accumulation marginal. But watch winds and coastal flooding.
Yellow: 5-10”. Snow will have some sleet and rain mix in at times in the middle of the storm, especially close to the shore, which will keep totals down a tad. If you get less mixing you’ll be closer to 10”; more and you’ll be near 5”.
Blue/Purple: 10-15”. Heavy snow throughout. Maybe a lull during transfer to coastal early Monday, but will pick up again as coastal takes over.
Red (in middle of Blue): 15-20” in jackpot zone. CCB band crushes it.
Orange: 5-10” of snow. Good steady snow but just a tad away from the heaviest bands.
Pink: 3-5” of snow. I just think this is going to be where the cutoff is for the really heavy snow from the coastal. This area may benefit more from the WWA out front which could boost this total a bit.

If you can just expand that red band a tad west, that would be nice.! Thanks for posting.

thank you!

I don't see any red, or do you have the orange on top of it?

The red has an orange hue, but didn't want it confused with the lighter orange to the west. Essentially the red area is that blob you see in the middle of the blue/purple.

I think it’s safe to say that he doesn’t mind if other people post maps/forecasts lol in fact, while I can’t speak for the man himself, I would think he welcomes it, as would the moderators, so long as there’s honest effort/quality content to them. A bunch of us make maps all the time, that’s where the other 50% of the fun comes in haha I like your map, but definitely want to pick your brain a bit later on when I get out of work (in a friendly way, of course)

You can definitely pick my brain. Some who have done so have found not much to be found there. LOL. I tend to learn far more from picking your brain, so that will probably be where that conversation goes. haha

My fault, my old eyes playing tricks on me. The shade of orange was so subtle to me I thought the blue was sandwiched between 2 yellows with orange inbetween.I've got no complaints as you've got me in the red.
