I've got a 24 followed by a double on the EMS side leading me right up to the storm. I'll be happily sleeping my arse off for the duration of the storm and its aftermath.

...POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM COULD EFFECT THE TRI- STATE FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH LATE WEDNESDAY...

AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS MONDAY...THEN TRACK EAST TO THE TENNESSEE RIVER VALLEY BY TUESDAY... WHEN A SECONDARY AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL FORM OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. THE COASTAL LOW BECOMES THE PRIMARY LOW BY WEDNESDAY MORNING OFF THE VIRGINIA OR NORTH CAROLINA COAST. THIS LOW WILL INTENSIFY AS IT SLOWLY LIFTS NORTHEAST TO EAST OF CAPE COD BY THURSDAY MORNING...AND TO NOVA SCOTIA BY THURSDAY EVENING.

COLD AIR WILL ALREADY BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION AHEAD OF THE STORM AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM SOUTH CENTRAL CANADA FROM MONDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. THE COMBINATION OF THIS COLD AIR...AND ATLANTIC MOISTURE BEING PUSHED INTO THE REGION AHEAD OF THE STORM...GIVES THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW FALL FROM LATE TUESDAY THROUGH LATE WEDNESDAY.

BEST INDICATIONS ARE THAT SNOW SHOULD DEVELOP TUESDAY AFTERNOON ACROSS NORTHEAST NEW JERSEY...THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY...AND METRO NEW YORK CITY...THEN CONTINUE TO OVERSPREAD THE ENTIRE TRI-STATE TUESDAY EVENING. CURRENT EXPECTATIONS ARE FOR THE HEAVIEST AND STEADIEST SNOW FALL TO OCCUR FROM LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH THE SNOW TAPERING OFF FROM WEST TO EAST WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THERE IS STILL QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY ON THE EXACT TRACK AND STRENGTH OF THIS STORM...AND ON HOW FAST IT WILL MOVE BY THE AREA. WITH A TRACK FURTHER WEST THAN EXPECTED... THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SNOW TO MIX WITH RAIN OVER EASTERN LONG ISLAND. IF THE TRACK IS FURTHER TO THE SOUTH OR EAST THAN EXPECTED...AREAS NORTH AND WEST OF THE CITY COULD END UP RECEIVING LITTLE IF ANY SNOW FALL.

IN ADDITION TO THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL...PROLONGED STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM LATE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR PRODUCING MINOR TO POSSIBLY MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING AS WELL.

BE ALERT FOR FURTHER UPDATES ON THIS POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM.

i think its a spoof, right now we cant tell a thing so lets wait a day to let the storm take shape and its track than we either celebrate or cry depending on the situation lol

[Guest]

my prediction...

none - alot

[AndyC3J 190]

A blizzard? On Valentine's Day? Hmmmm......

OK, so what's the over/under on local maternity wards having a sudden surge of business in late November?

Seriously.....I hope we get "some" snow this winter, otherwise there'll be a drought this summer, and that would suck. So would a heavy rain that would end it all at once, like we've gotten a couple of times in recent years. Where does one draw the line?

...POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM COULD AFFECT THE TRI-STATE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH LATE WEDNESDAY...

AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS MONDAY...THEN TRACK EAST TO THE TENNESSEE RIVER VALLEY BY TUESDAY... WHEN A SECONDARY AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL FORM OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. THE COASTAL LOW BECOMES THE PRIMARY LOW BY WEDNESDAY MORNING OFF THE VIRGINIA OR NORTH CAROLINA COAST. THIS LOW WILL INTENSIFY AS IT SLOWLY LIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARD EASTERN LONG ISLAND BY WEDNESDAY EVENING...THEN TOWARD THE GULF OF MAINE BY THURSDAY MORNING... AND TO NOVA SCOTIA BY THURSDAY EVENING.

COLD AIR WILL INITIALLY BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION AHEAD OF THE STORM AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EAST FROM SOUTH CENTRAL CANADA MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT MILDER AIR FROM THE ATLANTIC MAY SPREAD INTO COASTAL LOCATIONS ON WEDNESDAY. IT REMAINS UNCERTAIN AS TO HOW MUCH MILDER AIR WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY...WHICH WILL HAVE A MAJOR IMPACT ON SNOWFALL TOTALS. THERE REMAINS THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL FROM TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH LATE WEDNESDAY.

BEST INDICATIONS ARE THAT SNOW SHOULD DEVELOP BY MIDNIGHT TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS NORTHEAST NEW JERSEY...THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY...AND METRO NEW YORK CITY...THEN CONTINUE TO OVERSPREAD THE ENTIRE TRI- STATE DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. CURRENT EXPECTATIONS ARE FOR THE HEAVIEST AND STEADIEST SNOW FALL TO OCCUR FROM ABOUT MIDNIGHT THROUGH DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY MORNING. SNOW MAY THEN MIX WITH RAIN WEDNESDAY MORNING...BEFORE POSSIBLY CHANGING OVER TO ALL RAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON FOR NEW YORK CITY...LONG ISLAND AND COASTAL CONNECTICUT. INTERIOR PORTIONS OF THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY CAN EXPECT ALL SNOW...WHILE THE REST OF THE TRI-STATE AREA MAY SEE A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW.

THERE IS STILL QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY ON THE EXACT TRACK AND STRENGTH OF THIS STORM...AND ON HOW FAST IT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. CURRENT TRENDS ARE FOR A TRACK FURTHER WEST THAN PREVIOUSLY FORECASTED... ALLOWING PRECIPITATION TO MIX WITH OR CHANGEOVER TO RAIN. IF THE STORM REMAINS ON AN OFFSHORE TRACK...THAT WOULD BRING ABOUT WIDESPREAD SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL TOTALS TO MUCH OF THE REGION. HOWEVER...IT IS TOO EARLY TO DETERMINE MORE EXACT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS AT THIS TIME.

IN ADDITION TO THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL... PROLONGED STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR PRODUCING MINOR TO POSSIBLY MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING AS WELL.
