Pick the right time to be up. I think I'll hit 6".

[Rtd208]

Moderate to heavy snow falling here. Estimated accumulation 1.5-2.0"

Temp 29

[psv88]

Eyeballing 3-4” in Nw Suffolk already 

[Nibor]

More from my walk earlier.

[jm1220]

Mod to heavy and estimating a few inches. I think we easily go past 6 and have a good shot at 8" given what's left.

Just took a nice Jebwalk - spectacular out thre folks!  As of 3:00 am here in Metuchen we have 1.25" OTG for 1" the past hour and it's snowing somewhere between moderately and heavily with gorgeous mostly large (1/2" to 1" across) fluffy dendrites.  If we can keep this up for aonther 4-5 hours, we'll make my 4.75" prediction.  

As of 4:00 am we have 2.75" OTG (1.5" last hour) and it's 27F. Snow just went from heavy back to moderate with smaller flakes - hopefully just a lull.

[wdrag]

Wantage NJ 1.2" at 410A  S-. 24.3F Light north wind.

[Nibor]

Based on how much snow we have now and how much we have left to go I'm betting LGA comes in around 6.5 inches for this event.

[binbisso]

.15le With close to 3" is it possible that we're having 20:1 ratio?

[psv88]

Upton going 5-9” for Suffolk now 

[BxSnowWx37]

We are doing really well up here in the bronx. 4+ down and still snowing hard..the finale is incoming soon..6 is still possible here.

[guinness77]

Really coming down here in Long Beach. Couple of inches easily already down with big, fat flakes falling everywhere. Pretty stiff NNW breeze too. Chilly. 

[Snowlover11]

[mannynyc]

Starting to lighten up where I am in lower Manhattan but I think there is still one more band to push through

[Nibor]

[wxman]

As of 5:00 am, we're up to 3.5", but wth only 3/4" the last hour; 27F still.  Snowing moderately to heavily with larger flakes again.  Should at least get to 4", but not sure about my 4.75" prediction.  Great storm so far!

Reading of some 3-4 inch per hour rates in CT in the NE thread. Impressive stuff.

Pretty similar on the uws. 6” looks like a lock, and with that a warning criteria storm

We kinda lucked out in a few bands,6 is def in play. Parts of CT are near a foot..I don't think any model had that much snow for them and even us tbh and it's still snowing. Lol

[Snowlover11]

heavy snow despite the heavier band to my east now 5.5” otg.
