I saw 8.0" inches in Granville, NY on 0.68" water.

Was there some weird stuff going on last night?

This stands out like a sore thumb but it's got 8.0" snow depth.  At first I thought they meant 0.8" but the precip is nuts.

That area can do OK at times with NW wind as the Taconics are right to their east, but that is  a big precip discrepancy in all directions. But there are 4 separate reports of 8-9" in that area, so its legit.

Yep, check out weathernet, 2 more reports of 8+ in Washington county NY

Wow that’s insane. 

And they aren’t mountains either, Washington County usually downslopes bad in a lot of synoptic storms but pulls 8-10” on May 9th.

Amazing, Mitch has 3.7 and 24 degrees with blowing and drifting 

Seems low for him, Woodford at 2000ft with 8.5” just to his west.  But some weird banding as we are seeing in that area and adjacent lower elevations east/west of SVT.

I just posted above, but yes they can get screwed on a east, southeast wind as they almost get the double downslope off the Greens and Taconics, but winds were NW the whole event. NW winds probably dont explain the whole reasoning for the micro climate jack, who knows.

Yeah must be some weird convergence.  You are right, it is legit, there’s enough 8-9” reports right in that area. 

Crazy as it’s literally 3-4 times the amount of melted precipitation as everywhere around there.  It’s not even close but there it is in several different reports.

Ah nice grab.  Looks like that mid level band ran from like east/central NY up through Mreaves to Alex...then Washington County NY had some good blocked flow upslope.  

Looks like 1.4” will do it here for now, we’ll see if some squalls can fire up.
