ON THE FRINGE (FOR NOW) OF AN EARLY SPRING WINTER STORM

Even with the blizzard back in February, the tristate area has been on the periphery of storms; in other words, they would be either just to our south, or, as in the case of the February blizzard, too far to our east. Recall those places in eastern Long Island and Eastern Connecticut were an outlier as far as their astronomical totals, but most of the rest of the region had uniform snow totals of around 6-10 inches on average.

Sunday night and Monday, the song remains the same.

Once again, the question will become how far north the storm can get. Introducing heavier rates of precipitation will ultimately lead to a heavy wet snowstorm for most of the region, but especially in the higher terrain. Lighter rates with the storm would create a nuisance type situation for most of the NYC metro; this is mainly because of the time of year when ground temps are marginal at best to support snow.

So without further ado, here are the two scenarios! The bulk of the storm would be Monday.

Another update will come tomorrow.
