2-3 inches down with mod snow currently. Great appetizer snow before the main show. 

Love hearing NJ already cashing in. Expecting the biggest totals to be in North Jersey.

As of 5 pm we had 1.5" and it was still 24F in Metuchen.  

Just got back from getting takeout (Woodstack in Metuchen - really good flatbreads, pastas and specialty dishes).  Roads getting pretty bad as we now have 2.25" as of 6 pm (3/4" the last hour), which is definitely beyond what was expected now (<1" on all models).  Still 24F and snowing moderately - big fluffy flakes, so I'm guessing our snow/liquid ratio is at least 15:1 (usually about 10:1 here).

Steady accumulating light snow. Less than 1/2". 17.2°

That band approaching from the SW should jumpstart the snowfall around these parts (C/E Suffolk) in the next hour or two.. still cloudy here

Ratios for most away from coasts should probably be at around 12:1-15:1 or more tonight before they may end up falling back closer to 10:1 at the peak tomorrow

I hope all is well with you in Israel.

Here is a link to the Times Square webcam. With the lighting, one can see the first snowflakes of the forthcoming storm already swirling about.

Stay well.

Thank you Don, this looks great and I appreciate the kind response. 

Would you also happen to know of a similar webcam that would show things from a more grassy open area with the same sort of quality?
