Armando. Maybe in a lull you can do a write up with graphics to educate me on reading soundings better. I'm headed to bed tonight but if you ever have the time it would be awesome.

GFS is not as robust as the NAM likely 1-3" CNJ and east of NYC

Verbatim, there is some 4-5" spots in CNJ and ELI. We have seen storms like this before were there is a sharp cut off between 3-4" and a coating-2" based on proximity to the surface low(better precip rates).

You have a high probability of seeing see around 3". It will be a tough call for schools. Heaviest snow will be falling right as they are making the decision. Further south east/ east the higher likely hood of cancellation as the system will hang on until near 10-11am, and the snowfall rates will be higher.

.3" with a temp between 20-27 yields a solid 4-4.5" of snow as per the chart I use

Yeah another LI jackpot along withe coastal NJ !
Schools along the coast NJ will be delayed if not cancelled down there - I am hoping for a delayed at best if we can get 2" .
Alex you know from years gone by when you were in HS and you would always ask me (PM)about this - I was right 90% of the time!

Ti smnap is MM so 2.5 - 5 MM is .10 to .20 inches at 10 -1 ratio gives us 1 - 2" with 15:1 gives 1.5 - 3" and 20:1 gives us 2-4"

HRRR is not too enthused for this. Has c-1" for most. I like to compare it to radar evolution to observe it's accuracy once we get within 12 hours of start time. It is pretty quick with it moving in and out in less than 6 hours dropping less than .25" precip for most.

Just observational but the radar doesn't look bad for the snow already falling just from the wave itself without the coastal low even having developed. Who knows, maybe it surprises us with a nice quick shot of 2-4.

My LSC boy thinks NYC and EWR sees 3" saying good moisture flow STJ and warm waters of hotlantic with good to great ratios - 2014-15 incoming are his thoughts. Says storm will have good saturation and timing of hourly snowfall - coldest part of the day to help enhance it.

SM FTW!!

I think that's entirely possible. Very large snow shield on the radar now and if the intensity could kick up even a little between 3-8 am, we already know it's going to have very cold air to work with. We shall see.

SM FTW!!

Entirely possible. Radar looks decent and we know the moisture will be hitting a lot of very cold air when it gets here. If we can just get a good burst between 3-8 am, I think it has a chance to over-perform a bit. Either way timing is bad for rush hour traffic in the AM.
