I'll go with 2.5" final measurement in East Falls, but there was quite a bit of melting and compacting while it was still snowing. Went for a walk up the neighborhood hill and there was noticeably more snow at the top of the hill (~200 ft elevation) than at my house (~90 ft elevation). Fun storm and should be melted pretty quickly here if we actually get to 40 degrees with sun this afternoon like the forecast suggests

Think it must be just a little too warm here in NW Philly for significant accumulations since the sun came up. We have around 2 inches but only 1/4" where I cleared an hour ago despite moderate-heavy snow still falling

I thought it was over but we have been back to moderate snow for the last 30-45 minutes. Looks like around 4.5" so far -

3.25" in NW Philly. 0.4" - 0.5" / hour rates and still snowing moderately. Looks like right across the Delaware in South Jersey might be the jackpot when all is said and done -
E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2023-2024 OBS/Discussion
Chadzachadam replied to The Iceman's topic in Philadelphia Region
The roads look about as bad as I've ever seen them in my neighborhood, just 2-3 inches of solid ice in most spots. Not sure if they were totally untreated/unplowed but the freezing rain to end the storm certainly didn't help. Maybe the warmer temps tomorrow will help them recover somewhat before more snow on Friday -

Looks like a little under 3" here in NW Philly. Light freezing rain falling now -

3/4" in NW Philly. Rate has slowed a bit in the last 20 minutes or so -

Looks like 5 or 6” here in East Falls but impossible to tell for sure. Sharp cutoff to the NW: https://www.weather.gov/source/crh/snowmap.html?sid=dvn -

Looks like over 2” here especially in places that didn’t melt this afternoon. Not much wind yet, roads are not great but not fully covered. Steady light snow -

Pretty interesting setup, I can't remember ever seeing a something like this for a winter storm where the primary gets started off the East Coast of Florida, plus it seems to kind of have 3 pieces of energy instead of 2 like a typical Miller A/B - does anyone have any analogs? Lmk if I'm misunderstanding something about the setup/energy transfer too Anyway, steady light snow here in East Falls (NW Philly), solid coating but not really enough to measure at this point. Hoping for 7 or 8" here -
Charlotte, NC got their first measurable snow in ~3 years and then ended up getting another one less than a week later. I would guess most of NC, VA, WV, and MD are at least slightly above average so far

Not exactly on topic, but just wanted to note that this must be the longest foliage season I've ever seen. I've had decent color from I think the last week of October all the way through the first week of December, probably around 6 weeks in total (~3x longer than usual!). It looks like it's finally winding down now, with a few maples still holding onto some bright leaves. I guess it's been relatively mild, but I didn't think it had been so warm as to impact the foliage this significantly. Foliage definitely started a little later than usual, so I guess I'll just chalk it up to climate change and a long summer. Anyone else notice this or have any explanation?

The river made it to my doorstep at the intersection of Ridge and Midvale in East Falls. Stoplight on Kelly is almost fully submerged
