Received this this AM. I'm covered by the Binghamton area, but it looks like it could have a good impact on the Catskills and probably the Adirondacks as well. I am really liking what I'm seeing.
According to the NWS, the storm is shifting north and west.

00z operational models have exhibited a significant north and
westward shift of low track.
Models in good agreement with a major coastal storm that will impact
the region tonight into Tue Night. This is in response to PAC
energy over the central plains this morning...continuing to dive
into the to the gulf coast and phase with subtropical energy
tonight. A noticeable shift to a deeper phasing across the Gulf
coast is being signaled...providing a more negative tilt to the
phased shortwave energy as it tracks up the coast towards the
area Tuesday morning around digging and closing northern stream
energy through the Great Lakes. This is spelling a significant
shift to the N&W of storm track for Tuesday.
At the surface...the above scenario will allow for low pressure to
develop across the Gulf/SE US coast today...but now track N over the
Carolina coast by late this evening. Models are now spelling a much
farther north track of low pressure up the DelMarVa coast as it
rapidly intensifies Tue morning...eventually veering NE and
tracking close to Montauk Point Tue aft as a 980-ish low. This
a good 50+ mile NW shift of the model guidance from 24 hrs
ago...while also depicting quite a bit stronger low than 24 hrs
ago."
