When all is said and done on Monday night lets say 7:00PM - will most locations within a 30-40 mile range of NYC - the 3 major airports, yonkers, piscatway, pick your spot, have on the ground 4-6 inches of snow and/or ice...

This is the question and every single met seems to be saying something very different on this front.... After watching them all this morning (and listening on radio) the best estimate or a mid-range looks like 3 inches with the 4-6 range just slightly to the north and west of this point....

Sorry long island,

The question is, what will final snowfall accumulations for this event be in Central Park and other close spots to the city on Monday night??

My average of all the mets, Evans, CBS, ABC, FOX, TWC, Joe Cioffi, 880 and 1010 is 3 inches...

So you’re basing your average on the lowest amount of snow? I.e.: 3-6, you’re only looking at the 3?

No, I am taking a mid-range of most of the forecasts..

But it is not easy, Jeff B. had parts of NYC in 2-4 and parts in 4-7...Where do you take his mid-point
Bill Evans has 1-3 so I would take a two as his average; for 880 and 1010 1-2 I would take a 1.5 and so on...

I am going to wait until it starts snowing; I don't like watching TV mets seems like they are only in it for the money.
