really very little sleet here in Western Nassau. Smaller flakes with little sleet since the mega bands pushed north and west. Radar trying to redevelop some bands to the SE from coastal...

Had no sleet here in N. Syosset. About 13.5 inches so far. Visibility is about 2 to perhaps 3 blocks tops.

First post reporting in from Hunter's Point. Bit of a lull the past 90 minutes (especially compared to this morning) but still coming down, wind steadily swirling. Beautiful out there and hoping for more!

[allgame830]

15.5 inches in Thornwood NY... measured in 3 different spots.

I’m hearing once this thing pivots temps will come down even on the coast. 

Heaviest precipitation should be over by then I believe

Took measurements just now in my back lawn and averaged about 11" depth, was between 10.5 and 12". Lots of blowing around though. I leave it to those like NorthShoreWX to do this one accurately.  

No sleet, all snow moderate intensity.

My goodness it's coming down and the wind is howling. I've been under 1k foot visibility since about 11 and under 800 a good bit of that time. There's well over a foot out there but it's really hard to measure. I had a few spots at 12" in wind sheltered areas at about 2 so they are probably near 15 now.

still thinking 12"-18" or more like 18"-24" now that it seems the panic of the dry slot is dissipating?

Hopefully.. Most guidance has Orange/Sussex cashing in for the rest of the evening. You guys should have around 18"+ now 

[Cfa]

How are y’all getting decent measurements?! I see grass in some areas and 3 foot drifts in others.

8.7” average as of 3:15, which I realize isn’t accurate. I need to go out and measure again.

31/31.

[Islandersguy]

Snowing the hardest I’ve seen all day in White Plains. Less than a quarter mile visibility. Looking the the base reflectively and it looks almost like we are getting LI sound enhanced snow right now.

[Mitchel Volk]

Mainly sleet with a little snow mixed in at Cobble Hill Brooklyn 

[mikem81]

back to moderate snow here in garden city

Although I am south, I'm noticing that too. It's still snowing moderately here even without obvious returns.

Yes. Was at 17.5" conservative at 3 pm.

[Snowlover11]

well those bands south of nyc over the ocean seemed to have dried up.

[forkyfork]

low level snow growth under the radar beam

[crossbowftw3]

28/26 and continued moderate snow but still nothing overly heavy yet. Easily pushing a foot and with another 5-8 tonight we should easily make a run at 20” here. Snow has remained remarkably high-ratio and fluffy to this point.
