You should get hit pretty good over the next hour looking at the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Picked up over an inch already I'd say. Most within about an hour and a half. Still snowing moderately with big fat clumped up flakes mixing in with the smaller ones. Possibly letting up but hard to tell when all the flakes are coalescing. Here's a picture, not the best. My phone camera is still damaged despite replacing the camera glass cover, the internal part was also apparently damaged. Breaking your phone through your pocket and case after 2 weeks of ownership is always fun.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds~69 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Eyeballing about 1.5 - 2" in Horsham,...forget the shovel use a leaf blower. Super light/dry/fluffy,,,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Just came back in from measuring. 2.0" on the nose. Snow rate is varying from SN- to SN but with the temp at 27, it is still steadily accumulating. Even though the WWA was up since last night, it seems that people are being surprised by this. There are accidents galore being reported. Maybe because the previous events were mix and this is all snow - at least here in the Philly area and immediate 'burbs. Plus there has been a lot of hype about the Sun/Mon storm so this one seemed to have been minimized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem with that here is at the bottom it's damp due to latent heat in the driveway...just moved some around and it was a little bit of a workout.

I can imagine people being surprised, especially since it will be over by daylight in many areas. A nice quick blanket of snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice quick blanket of snow! Yeah but what happened was that many of the roads were not done (in some cases, not pre-brined) so with the antecedent cold, they have been snow-covered and the usual idiots think they are in a Suburu commercial blasting through the snow (but failing).

I was thinking 2" to 3", so here I'd call it an over-performer even though some models showed as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Nickle and diming it to average this season. Not sure my total for the year as I was away for a few events. But 3.1inches on the board for phoenixville and it's snowing moderately right now with nice dry flakes of medium size. Love it!!

Very dry and fluffy - our 10th winter event of the season here in the NW Philly burbs with now up to 27.1" for the season which is now only 2.8" below our normal seasonal snowfall thru today.

Hurricane Agnes Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Was looking at some of the archived data on my GRLevel3 program (images posted below) and saw it started here IMBY around 3 am. A heavier band started setting up around 3:45 am, and sortof ballooned on its way east. The back edge is approaching and it's still snowing lightly but with bigger flakes that are adding to the accumulation. Temp still holding at 27.
