It really looks like this thing is going to explode and dump upwards of 2 feet of snow on Long Island. I've seen some forecasts for up to 28 inches but that is going to be isolated where the heavy snow bands set up. In those bands, you may get 3-4 inches in a an hour. There may be some sleet mixed in at times because of the intensity of the storm. Along with Thunder snow.
The big concern is, there could be 70mph winds. This is going to be dangerous.
I am expecting Blizzard Warnings either late tonight or tomorrow morning.
This is not something to be taken lightly. Long Island is going to be shut down on Tuesday.
There is a small room for error here with a slight shift in the track but most models seem to agree with the scenario I just pointed out. I will use this thread if any updates are needed by lowering or even raising possible snow totals.
One thing is for sure, this is going to be a dangerous storm!
Everyone else is going to get a LOT of snow
I'm pretty sure you're not going to have anything to worry about
Any thoughts from you would be greatly appreciated!!
Your the Sy'56 of weather!!!
Plus another big (potentially) at end of week.
that's the energy they've been talking about at end of week here..another coastal

DC area is on the edge. Some models are saying an inch or two, some are saying well over a foot. In your area it's likely you get at least 4-6, but it could be a lot more depending on the storm track.
F' storm..
A bad year to.buy new snowShoes

That's the spirit and reassurance I'm looking for.
As far as mixing goes, there may be a little but I don't think enough to really hold down totals.
But again, a slight shift in the projected path could change a lot. Will update tomorrow.

Same here. What are they excited about? Shoveling? Possibly losing power at home? Hazardous driving? Canceling important appointments?
I don't get it.
And for those of us in the Hudson Valley if U don't already use Hudsonvalleyweather.com U should. Also very good!(click on "Today's Weather" for daily that has good & usually pretty damn accurate info!

Hudson Valley Weather is as good as it gets for a locally run site with local experts who know the climatology and dynamics for winter storms
I'm praying for you to be disappointed.
"Bonus Day" for the city's big employer was this time in March; and in many subsequent years I remember disruptive snowfalls that very week (when car dealers were trying to make a killing).
Hard for me to sympathize with my new South Carolina friends when 2" of snow closes schools for days and public and private offices for at least 24 hours.
(I really do understand; my adopted county just doesn't have the equipment that upstate NY used to clear snow, and I certainly don't want to disturb my ridiculously low property taxes to pay for such. I'm happy to stay snug by my fireplace for a day or two.)

Wow I saw a T instead of Y and was very confused.
Joey, you remind me of the guy who viewed slide after slide in a Rorchach test and and gave each an erotic interpretation. When the psychiatrist warned the patient he might have a a problem of a sexual nature, the guy exclaimed "ME?!? Those are YOUR pornagraphic pictures!"
(just kidding)

Lived on Browncroft Blvd back then. I was 7 years old and remember the snow piles were so high we could sled down them and get all the way across Browncroft without help
Exactly, not to mention the mess it leaves especially on your cars
Love the dry snow, can just drive my car and it all blows off!! The wet stuff I have to actually physically remove or else it iced up..
At least street parking will be canceled this week. I'm going to let the snow sit on my car until next weekend.
Seriously guys take care on this one.
Do you know BB56?
So you like snow as much as Tom, huh gidie?
All you need is one.
