Not far away from you, Chubbs (in Pike Creek, DE) -- snowing lightly here too but nothing is sticking yet.

Just flurries/light snow since 9:00. No accumulation, just wet ground. Temp 35.6.

There is often a difference as cross the fall line from Pa into De. Sitcking now on grass,mulch+snowboard. Deck, cars have a slushy coating

[snowwors2]

as NBC10's Sheena Parveen would say:

"Consistent" steady light snow now falling (as seen through my two, pointed skyward, "snowlights")

Of course, Cecily would probably say:

it's "essentially" snowing now! (just counted 5 "essentially"s during her 11 pm spot)

[ChescoWx]

Radar certainly looking much more interesting looking at BWI radar.....

[allman15]

The radar is not picking up the Chesco snow very well. Snowing half decently here but radar shows very light returns. BWI is reporting light rain.

[JTA66]

Steady light snow now. Non-paved surfaces are getting covered.

[Cary]

Rain and wet snow mixing in here.

[LVblizzard]

Light snow falling here, sticking to rooftops

[NJHurricane]

Good deal, hopefully will be all snow by the time I roll into Woodbury at 230am. Nothing falling at all here at the moment, 36 degrees.

meh now its struggling back and forth again in spite of seemingly heavier precip. We shall see, roads plenty wet, wasting some decent qpf to start. Good luck with your runs this morning.

[NJHurricane]

Thanks man, I think I should be ok though, gonna take some heavy snow to finally stick to the roads.

[jrodd321]

Snow finally covering roads. Still coming down at a good clip for the past hour or so even though radar doesn't really show it. Anyways, some nicer bands forming down in the DC area.

We should get to freezing up here by 2am. also it appears radar echos are intensifying southwest of Philly in Delaware and northeast Maryland. Should be interesting to see what happens during the time frame we get to freezing.

Just a side note visibility is falling here you can tell there is a good deal of moisture in the air with this snow. Read the other day that inverted trough thrive on left over dynamics instability and moisture. you can sure see the moisture in the air. not getting my hopes up but that feature continues to interest me on 00z short range guidance just in.

Been snowing here since 7:00.. starting to stick to the roads
