Those echoes aren't any rimed flakes are they? That's incredible. Looks good on CC.

Just measured 2 inches in Little Egg Harbor very nice over performer here !

About 7.5 inches has fallen in North Wilmington, although, sleet is starting to mix in. I think we've had more snow today than we did all of last winter.

0.15 mile vis.

Here's the actual ASOS report:

KVAY 081854Z AUTO 02004KT M1/4SM +SN FZFG VV003 M03/M04 A3054 RMK AO2 SLP341 P0000 T10281039=

M1/4SM = Less than 1/4 mile.  ASOS can't make good determinations below 1/4 mile so it just reports M1/4.

[Chris L]

Radar looks excellent. Looks like some of the northern sections can cash in on this next batch too. Overall, the NAM nailed this storm.

There's a back-edge rapidly approaching now, so the super heavy snow will not last more than another... 2 hours at most.   More like an hour

[Sophisticated Skeptic]

Light snow just started here....21 degrees

 

But i'm 2,000 feet up, so down mountain is probably just flurries.
