Someone who reflects the feelings of most people who don't hang around weather boards....

It's been hours now. we are likely done with serious accumulation here. Precip isn't heavy and what falls is mostly sleet. Take the 12-15 we got. It was a good storm, but it was mostly over for us by early afternoon. Some areas stayed snow and for longer. Some never got going good. Way it is.

Was talking down here in Middlesex county. Snow appears to be falling again.
-
We will need to get crankin and soon to hit 20; doable but it needs to actually start snowing at a decent clip again. Can't complain though eh? Lots 0f 12-15 in our area and into SI.

In Jan 2018 the bands were stopping at the river. The same may be true now. Very light sleet right now; even if it changes to snow it is too light to do much. Haven't looked at radar. We need some heavier bands if we are gonna add to this over here.
-
Can't get it goin much here either; mix and dry slot, if they are in the picture at all, will always find a way to sneak in at my location. I expect it. It may have to do with Raritan Bay, I don't know.
-
It's been over for some of us for awhile already.....hasn't snowed here in hours. Heavy then light sleet. Dry slot too. But we had a great go of it for several hours this morning, where it came down heavy.
-
Its possible; I have close to 15 in Woodbridge and it stopped snowing hours ago; been sleet since around noon. If not for that I would think 20 was a real possibility.
-
It is sleeting over here in Woodbridge again. The sleet is persisting here. Not sure why. We laid down an impressive amount before the sleet though.
-
You were worried about sleet yet it seems west of the Hudson had the bulk of the sleet. Never can tell...
-
Car insurance will cover it, after a 1000 deductible ( at least thats how it is in NJ ). My wife once got hit by a guy speeding away from a cop; the township wouldn't pay for the damage; said the cop was doing his job pursuing a car jacking. Had to go thru insurance.
-
Seeing some lighter snow again over here; wife let the dog out to poop; he wasn't satisfied with the path I cleared so he went on the pavers; went out to clean it up, couldn't find it; covered already in the last 20 mins.
-
It was hours long here in parts of NJ. Would have gotten close to 20 without it. Measured several areas and got between 14-15.
-
I think we are done in CNJ. I don't see that filling in. 10-15 is good storm. Looks like Trenton area didn't get the goods this time. I'm on the edge of that dry slot now. Snow stopped around noon or so and changed to sleet, never changed fully back.

Measured 14.5- 15 in Colonia. Looks done now. Fine with me. Too much chaos.
-
I think the wind is the story right now in CNJ...
-
Not far from you. Maybe it will flip back. Insane winds now. Stopped hearing pinging but no flip to snow. Precip seems to have stopped.
-
Yeah 10-12 with prolonged sleet was not mentioned, but here many of us are....
-
The sleet seems focused in CNJ; not what was expected. I think you may top out higher than us; It is sleeting quite hard; we are losing big bands to sleet. It is quite persistent now.
-
Happens more often than not....March 2018 was painful around here...even in Jan the bomb cyclone was unimpressive. Most of the time, in my experience, the totals are overdone. Once in awhile they hit it, bit more often than not, a number of areas see less than forecast. And 5 inches is really a bust for you. But I don't believe most of NJ is gonna see 20 inches. If it flips back you'll probably pick up some more. Right now, that sleet is persisting, and until I see evidence otherwise, I don't expect much more. Now, someone will jump on my case here, and that's fine. If I knew the future, I'd have won the mega millions ( or billion! ).

Indeed. But that sleet out there is wicked sounding. There's some snow mixed in at times. Its waffling. Might change back. Who knows. I'm done cleaning for today. Not going out again. Especially not in stinging sleet.
-
Saw that in Jan 2011; wound up with 19 total. It actually rained for a period in that storm, then went to sleet and later back to snow. So it can happen. I too have forgotten how longer events can unfold, again with so many progressive patterns in recent years.
-
If its rain and sleet, I would tend to think, based on experience, our bigger accumulation chances are largely over in those regions....damn sleet is always under-predicted. Still a nice storm with a ways to go. Still who would turn their noses up at 12+? After the last 3 years?
