I guess we just live under high pressure forever now. Have had less than 0.5” in the last 2 months (8/21-10/21) locally. On the bright side, blowing the leaves works like a charm. As far winter prospects go, is the cold pooling on the correct side of the globe for us this year? Source regions torching? Bueller? I think I remember seeing an SST map recently that looked ‘better’ than the last 2 years or so from Chesapeake Bay northward.

Once again approaching rain went *poof* and dissipated around me but on the bright side the AC finally kicked off for the first time in over a week last night.

Got dry-slotted/fizzled precip-wise today but cashed in on the mammatus and glowfest. Consolation I guess, but not if you’re a plant.

Starting Friday beautifully with afternoon storms likely, followed by a perfect summer weekend, unless you're cloudy cool mcbirds. Early June may win most enjoyable weather award. Just hope the storms pan out.

Seems like folks around rts 78 and 22 maxed out. What a difference 25 miles (for me) makes! Currently getting some of Agnes’ light snow blob. Maybe another shower or squall later if they can make it across PA.

Unofficially officially 3.5” on the trash can lid near the house and 2.5” on the driveway. Some quick differential equations averages that to 3” as of 5am

Yeah @Blue Dream and I will be sweating it if that 3k verifies. WWA here for now. Makes it dicey whether to stay up late or wake up psychotically early to watch. Sunny and 41 for now

Padding some stats with a moderate burst of nickel-sized parachutes the last 15 minutes or so.

Yeah, basically across the river from you and measured 3" of mashed potatoes on the driveway not too long ago. Agree it's let up but hoping we get some stat padding on the way out. Glad I dug out the snowblower but now have to change the oil since it's been a while.

First flakes started mixing in around 6 here and everything was coated, street and asphalt driveway included, once it was all snow by 6:30. Moderate to heavy snow currently, and eyeballing 2" on patio table and chairs.

Rain and sleet mix at the moment, with some sort of icy accumulation/accretion on the cars. Eagerly awaiting a change to snow.

Same. I don't know if Im just content bc snow’s falling or bc in self defense I had severely tempered expectations after losing the bullseye to the southern shift in the last 24 hours. Either way, I take.

Light snow since 6am eyeballing 1.5 maaaaybe 2” near Washington Crossing. Mod to heavy to maaaaybe ripping for the last 10 minutes or so. As I write intensity hasn’t slowed but flake size has.

Spotty mulch topper so far just NW of trenton. Currently pixie dust so r/s line seems pretty good. Wish it were further away!
