It would be really cool to see a lot of snow here again, but I don't really want a blizzard! Downeast Maine got 18 inches back a few weeks ago and we are set up again to get 9-15+ depending on the track of the low! An inch of snow per hour is a little scary because it won't be fluffy snow, it is suppose ro be heavy wet snow which causes power outages with the winds that will be associated with the storm.
 
Ripping pretty good here. Unfortunately, I'll be busy late this afternoon:


May be mistaken, but it does look as if a fairly heavy band is going to splash down at or at least near NYC.
 
Pretty neat interview here:




I'm going to try and do some better searching right now with that band coming ashore around NYC, but I didn't have much luck initially.
 
Think I'm going to wrap up my looking at this event for now as I feel like crap. Based on Ryan's stream, it's already pretty high impact traffic wise (and you are hearing of some power outages). I-84 in CT I believe had to shut down because a tractor trailer had an accident.

Overnight will probably tell us if the high-end totals have a shot in some scattered areas.
 
1.56” of liquid equivalent (all in the form of snow except perhaps the first .01-.02”) has fallen at NYC/C Park as of 10AM and it’s still coming down very heavily! This storm is nearly beyond description.


There's a couple 26 inch reports on Long Island now. It definitely seems like the models were right about the heaviest snow being east of the city.

Also most of the webcams I found earlier were useless due to whiteout conditions

NYC essentially ~20” as of 1PM and still falling! Holy cow! ~1.75” water equiv!
