March 2nd Nor'easter Update

I just finished golfing. I don’t know what to believe. Frank is in on it now which gives hope. I’m completely mind effed. Don’t know what to believe. Expecting rain

Of copurse highest will be along coast (And no, I do not say as of yet that anyone sees hurricane winds, over ocean sure) but if NAM is right I would expect damaging winds to extend into at least northern westchester too and NJ. Could also approach higher than 60mph gusts, we will see. Funny NWS is all over that part for NYC area...and no snow.

I hear ya CP, not wishing anyone to lose power but this has been the one pretty steady thing with this system. Even at 40mph gusts a heavy wet snow will bring trees down sorry to say. But if the 18z NAM plays out it will just be downright bad and honestly I dunno if I want to see it that bad, also looked at some seas maps and the coast is toast if NAM is right. beaches will be bashed.

To each his own right? I don't get the whole wind thing either haha. I HATE windy days especially when precipitation is falling. It causes power outages, downed tree limbs, and all around blows stuff all over the place. I'll take a heavy snow with no wind all day.

Well can't say I do not understand everything you guys like LOL, and damn CP 200 ft snow with no wind thats a heck of a heavy snow!~!! I would be excited for that too.

I'm sorry I can't be a part of much tonight as I'm now at work, but I am absolutely APPALLED at how the NWS and on-air mets are handling this. Gotta go. Absolutely appalled.

Winter storm watch for my area already posted for Friday morning into late Friday night. Calling for 4-8 inches with 10" amounts in the higher elevations.

Man cut out!!! You gotta be here for the 00z runs we need your reassurance! Do you think the 18z nam winds could veryify? What percentage of those sustained on the map I posted, I am under the 80kt 850mb winds sustained, half? 75%? Needless to say I think gusts could easily surpass 60mph, but just a guess.

UPTON Briefing....going with no SNOW for now. I'm with Rb. Very confused why there is no risk mentioned of snow down to the coast/city.

Yes, lol, I just about did. Many METS are taking at least the wind threat seriously ATM.

I love the wind coupled with heavy precip too Jman, think this will be one hell of a storm with both, hoping more white than wet as well
