needed to tie from there

1) 14.2

2) 13.6

3) 13.1

4) 7.7

5) 7.6

6) 6.9

7) 6.7

8) 6.5

9) 5.7

10) 4.8

It'll be close to maybe taking the #9 spot. I don't see 6" or more happening to move them higher than 9 but who knows, the pivot point doesn't look terrible there actually. My 18" guess for them might not be too bad in the end.

Those heavy echoes south of LI are sleet...let's see if they wash out

[dave0176]

Is this flipping back to snow in CNJ or are we done.

I measured in Bridgewater 20" an hour ago.

at 11 am a trained spotter measured 17.5" 2 miles from me. Somervill nj

I'm about 9 miles away and had been all snow until 30 minutes ago, at 460' and I have 11.5.  There is no way anyplace in Bridgewater has 20 legit inches.  Maybe on a picnic table by a roofline.

Temperature up to 31.3° here in SW with very light snow.

Lol my 5” in Trenton?! What an epic bust this storm was. 

Okay 5 inches is low but most areas are already a foot plus. What happened there was it too dry or too much mixing? 

[ILoveWinter]

Still coming down nicely in the UWS, no sleet

[HVSnowLover]

Flakes are getting bigger which is beautiful but often a sign of a possible change to sleet or at least wetter snow 

[Blizzardo]

Need this to flip back over to snow!

[NJwx85]

Just been ripping here for the last 1-2 hours. Visibility is down to about 1/10th of a mile.

Literally we got pretty much zero snow from the coastal. This is a top 3 all time bust for my area. 0z runs last night showed a consensus 12-24” additional and we are gonna end up with 1-3” more at most. We might be done already. Feels bad man...

I'm a long time lurker and even was a member until they changed and I had to re-sign-up. I measured 12" not at an angle in Sea Cliff north shore of LI about 20 miles west of Huntington Sta. Still moderate snow coming down.

I dont know,,there was that one tweet from the guy who said it was snowing in somerville 3.6 inches an hour for 2.5 hours...I think in Hillsborough and Belle Mead we are closer to a foot but Somerville and Bridgewater got into the heavy banding..almost like a summer thrunderstorm 

[nflwxman]

Heavy snow in Riverdale - ~12.8" ONG. Flake size is noticeably larger. A pivot would be real nice right now.

[WeatherGod]

Sitting at a foot in North Brunswick, light sleet at the moment

Heavy snow continues here in central Warren County. Surprised at the winds this far inland.  21 degrees.

Happens more often than not....March 2018 was painful around here...even in Jan the bomb cyclone was unimpressive. Most of the time, in my experience, the totals are overdone. Once in awhile they hit it, bit more often than not, a number of areas see less than forecast. And 5 inches is really a bust for you. But I don't believe most of NJ is gonna see 20 inches. If it flips back you'll probably pick up some more. Right now, that sleet is persisting, and until I see evidence otherwise, I don't expect much more. Now, someone will jump on my case here, and that's fine. If I knew the future, I'd have won the mega millions ( or billion! ).

Light rain/sleet in holbrook

[janetjanet998]

 

you guys need to take a quick peak at the 12z Euro for next Sunday

 

[Northof78]

Very heavy snow continues...large flakes, around 1.5"/hr. 

[A_Status]

Snow mixing back in in Flatbush, Brooklyn.  Light intensity.  Gusty winds. 

[SnowGoose69]

.22 at NYC last hour so they’re at least at 15.5.  Problem is if they dry slot or go to sleet it’ll compact and they’ll end up with an inaccurate measurement at 7pm.  That’s irrelevant in regards to the storm record since they wouldn’t get there anyway if that happens but it could still cause an erroneous storm total
