DarthDoppler Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 6 ~ 6 1/4 so far. Temp 30.7. I was down the hill 4 miles away when it started down there, pretty much started driving home then. Got up the hill and it was all white with the road covered in areas already. I expected elevation to help with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVblizzard Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Snow started just over 2 hours ago here in Allentown. Already about 5" on the ground. Crazy rates here with the band that moved in to start the storm. It's moderate snow now since that band moved out but it looks like another 2" or so is likely based on the radar.

JTA66 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I'd estimate about 2+" so far with some heavy radar returns just off to my SW. Good thing this is a quick hitter -- I could see power outages if this was a long duration event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 54 minutes ago, RedSky said: Mega echoes moving north into PA from DE that will be killer rates, Kamu? It has been for about the last hour or so - gonna go measure shortly. Had to dry off from the kettle fire, lol. Had the tent up but snow was blowing in towards the end. Awesome though! Just dropped to 32F here a few minutes ago. Interestingly right after it picked up, there was rain mixing in pretty good, but only for about 5 or 10 minutes, then it went back to all snow and has been coming down between moderate and heavy since.
