I moved to PA almost 20 years ago. I got the idea after observing that many of the people that worked at Midtown South had cars with PA plates. I worked across from there at the time.

It was same story here - and then the heavy band arrived.

Heavy snow- 1/4 mile visibility. Storm total now 1.50”

Moderate snow- visibility 3/8 mile 28F

Still light snow with 0.5” new.

Steady light snow- 1 mile visibility. 29F

Steady light snow- Visibility 2 miles. 32F

Light snow is now rapidly breaking out across south central PA.

Mt. Holly has issued a WSW for NW NJ and eastern and NE PA for 6-10”

Partly cloudy here with 0.80” new.

The last time that I am aware of significant icing on LI Sound other than that noted above was in February 1979 in the week prior to PD 1. I was able to walk several hundred yards out onto the ice at Sunken Meadow at that time.

83 was a wild storm where I was out on the island on the north shore. We had several hours overnight of winds gusting to 40 - 65 mph on my weather station along with occasional mixing with graupel. I believe that there were gravity waves associated with that storm as well. As you noted it took forever for the snow shield to move in. When it did so it came in like a wall of white at 3:00 PM and we transitioned to heavy snow quickly.

1.25” total. Looks like we are done.

Steady light snow with 0.25” new.

I think you had some existing snow cover from during the week. The area near Gouldsboro / Moscow had a couple of inches on the 2nd from some lake effect streamers that moved through (If that’s your area) and it looks like you received a coating up there today. That area is up at about 1800 feet so that always helps.
