Just measured 9 inches in Piscataway.  Just a half hour before that my friend measured 8 so that's two inch per hour rates we're getting.  Temp is 12.

 

 

I just measured 9 inches as well. On radar you can see the band of heavy snow collapsing southeast, so we don't have too much longer to go. But an awesome storm.

Was thinking about this too.. needs to slow down right now.  

 

 

E-NJ and perhaps NYC are gonna get the shaft big time, they're gonna get into that band only for a small window while LI will probably spend as much time in it as N-CNJ did

Yeah I see that but there's also still a lot more coming up from the southwest so we'll see what happens.  Would love to get to a foot and I think it's within reach.

Band or no band you are still gonna get more accumulating snow. More bands can still fire up to the west as I see some trying now on Radarscope.

Snow is changing from a smooth beach sand like look to a much more structured dendrite now. You can see the snowpack is developing a coarser texture on top and is sparkling like diamonds. I think the accumulations are beginning to build again. We have around 4-6" on the ground, could get another 4" maybe. 8-10" looks like a solid possibility, not too shabby.

Actually you can see on the latest radar frames the southeast collapse of the heavy band stopping with a lot more heavy banding still to come from the southwest.
