With the bands in southern NYC and Rockland County still in place, the heavier snow seems to be consolidating over Hudson county... hopefully I'll also get my 15-20 minute share of heavy snow before going back to the dry slot, the other possibility is for the banding in Morris county to start shifting a bit east.

Folks..another thing with this crying wolf about QPF being under model. The ASOS's out there do not do well when the temperature is well below freezing. The best way to determine that is do a melt/core sample. Before you cry model bust, think about this.

Yep. When I was taking the New Brunswick wx obs this morning I melted the snow that had fallen in the rain gauge and got about 0.20'' of liquid. And that was only through 7 AM.

Man this storm is playing out like the one in 2001-2002. We should get near 4" when it's all said and done just like that one storm in that winter, and then we torch in a day and a half with rain. And then next week we stay torching. I'm still happy we have at least one winter snow event just to say this winter is not a total loss.
