And So it begins...

12:00pm.... Well, light snow has begun to move into the area and already there is a dusting of snow on the ground.  As I expected, blizzard conditions were posted yesterday afternoon and they continue through Mon morning.  The latest model runs indicate the possibility of 45-60 mph winds could occur throughout the NYC Metro making travel very dangerous, if not impossible.  The heaviest snow bands should develop over Nassau and Suffolk counties and, depending on the exact track of the Low, could enter as far east as NYC.  As a result, those snowfall totals could be as high as 18"-20".  For NE NJ, there will be a steady rate of heavy snow from late this afternoon through 3am, before tapering off by Mon morning.  Snowfall totals for the area will be anywhere from 8"- 14" by the time this storm has passed.

I will have further updates throughout the day so keep checking in.... Happy Blizzard '10 everybody
