Specific Forecasts: Bergen County, NJ

This post directly addresses northern New Jersey, mainly Bergen County. I think the heaviest snow will fall at the highest elevations. Now, several people think I should extend the 12"+ area on my map into Bergen county. I think differently. Most of the county is at a very low elevation, so sleet mixing in due to proximity to the ocean is likely. This will significantly cut down on snow accumulations quite a bit. So, I will put a closeup of my snow map over an elevation map to show what I mean. Here is my snow map for all of northeast.
Here is my closeup of northern New Jersey. So, right now my guess for Bergen county is 6-10". maybe 11" the extreme NE corner of the county.
