Major Storm for Thursday and Friday for NYC/S. New England?






The latest GFS/NAM numerical weather forecasts indicate a major coastal storm that could produce rain and sleet along the coast and heavy snow inland especially over the Lower Hudson Valley and Connecticut. A very strong upper level vortex will keep the storm circulating around it across New England resulting in a chance of snow showers into the weekend. The 850 32 degree line is forecast to be over NYC and with the storm track quite close the the city and LI, this does not look like a lot of snow for the coast but there will be some snow there. More on this storm later this week.
