I think they have us confused with someone else:
This is new. I thought we might get some flurries, but... 8"-12"?! DAMN!
Must be time to buy milk, eggs & bread. Or my version, which is wine, cheese & cigarettes.
Blizzard watch in effect from Saturday afternoon through
Sunday morning...
The National Weather Service in Upton has issued a blizzard
watch... which is in effect from Saturday afternoon through Sunday
morning.
Snow will begin during Saturday afternoon... and become heavy at times
Saturday night. Northeast winds will also increase Saturday night to
25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 50 mph... causing blizzard conditions
along with considerable blowing and drifting of snow.
By the time the snow ends Sunday morning... accumulations should
average 8 to 12 inches... with locally higher amounts possible.
The highest totals are most likely to occur in and near New York
City... and across western Long Island.
A blizzard watch means there is a potential for falling and or
blowing snow with strong winds and extremely poor visibilities.
This can lead to whiteout conditions and make travel very dangerous.
