Yup, see my above shout-out to you. I dunno, just north and west of us is a wind advisory (i.e., Northern Westchester). Upton is very underwhelmed by this storm.

If this was a fresh cold airmass we be in panic mode and getting ready for area wide feet

And therin lies my perpetual frustration. Where is shit like this when it’s in the teens?

18z NAM for first time showing some midday sleet/rain over northern New Jersey where it was previously solid snow. For what its worth.

Winter storm warning in orange county. At this point it’s all meaningless let’s see what it looks like Saturday morning.

Some real concerns peeps

Just saw that a little while ago CP.We are right on the edge of the heavy snow, a little nudge down and we could see a foot.Strange I went for a walk around the pond in town earlier with a light jacket,LOL.If it wasn't so mild that sky would be screaming SNOW!!!! If rb is right with the upper levels being dynamic, everybody will share in the wealth.If the snow does come, this board will be NUTSO tomorrow! Looking forward to it.

You know I was in Dr office this morning and they had on channel 12 newa he was discussing the difference between nam and other models in depth....was surprised

That was probably James G. Him and Dave Curren (afternoon/evening guy) are some of my favorite TV mets.

It was James Gregorio. I caught it in the dentist's waiting room around 9am.

 inches at higher elevations above 800 feet and 2 inches or less
 in the valleys are expected.

 Pennsylvania, Northampton county.

now we wait. if we play the elevation game I'm around 550

Winter Storm Warning posted in my area. Calling for 1-2 inch snow fall rates per hour at times.

Boy saying 3-8 for me but just to my east can see a foot, going to be very interesting that's for sure.

UPTON:
The cooling of the vertical column looks to be most pronounced
during the late morning and afternoon hours Friday as the
offshore low occludes and the influx of warmer air aloft from
the Atlantic shuts off. A snow and rain mix will likely even get
to the coast by mid to late afternoon with the possible
exception of far eastern Long Island and southeast Connecticut.
Keep in mind, there is the potential for several inches of wet
snow accumulation at the coast should some of the cold solutions
come to fruition in conjunction with heavy banded precipitation.

The rain here has changed to a rain/snow mix with big flakes. Don't know if it will last but either way it's somewhere between 3 and 5 hours ahead of schedule.

Agreed.

I really like Jman, he seems like a good, honest, genuine, likable person, but if this happens I say we tar and feather him.
