Peeps,
Okay some are saying bust, others are saying OMG and it all depends like teh adult diapers of where you live. The temperatures never dropped to or below 32* for a majority of NNJ and NYC which caused most of the snow to melt on contact. Now if the temperature was say 30* or 28* them we would have 6-12″ easily – and yuo might say NYET to this but as they say in New Awleens – TRUE DAT!!

Delay or not to be Delayed??
I don’t make teh call BUT I can tell yuo such if the snows ramp up to what NWS is calling for and teh models are saying then Delayed is on teh table, the also wildcard is the temps and the icing that will take place overnight.
Not to be Delayed? If you go to NH or any school south of RT 17.
I’ll put the chances of a delay at 60%
Oh and Meizy’s, KK and Reynolds – I am Al”stradamus” with the call from last night – yuo have to give it to me – I told each in a text or phone call – in and early dismissal – most others up by us stay home…..and what happened……..EXACTLY as I said.
Radar filing in nice banding firing back up – could be a nice thumping and should last till about 1AM. No I am not staying up to see this – only if it were a blizzard and I had no work manana!
PIVOT!!
Those snows up in NY state will swing through – could have a nice surprise come morning peeps.
Enjoy
