Radar still looks pretty active right now so maybe just a dry slot?

3:15pm Smithtown.  33° Drizzle 1.9" on the board.  Still slush in the street.

Precipitation is very light.

Finally got a WWA for 1-4” and 2-6 way north of me. NWS can’t even get things right the day of a storm. TWC app had me at 1” for the day and haven’t changed their forecast. 

[HVSnowLover]

HRRRR has precip until 7 pm which would mean a little after sundown. 

[psv88]

Rain and 34 now.

Light rain/drizzle. Temp still 33. Wonder if we can get a few degrees below freezing tonight and freeze this all up.

It’s no mystery what’s going on here and it has been all season.
 

The NWS has dropped the ball again, as they have so many times in years past, regarding snowfall measurements at Central Park. Look at every event this season and the Park has under measured, or not measured at all, every event. When they had the Conservancy measure the last several years it was better although not perfect. I’m not sure what they’re doing this year but it’s time to start applying pressure again. It’s ridiculous that the largest city in the country can’t measure snowfall with any consistency. 

I don’t even want to get started on all of the historic storms they have under measured through the decades. 

you can go back to January 2000 when they didn't measure after midnight making a 6" storm a 5.5" storm...Central Park averaged 29.9" of snowfall since 1990...it probably would be over 30" if the little ones were measured right...

what did JFK report, Don?

There is nothing falling around here anymore.

We had coatings on all cold surfaces

0.2"

 

[IrishRob17]

4.3" on the board with ongoing light snow 32/30.

[psv88]

Slush falling from the sky and 34.

[HVSnowLover]

Complete slop now but looks like a solid 1.5 inches accumulated on colder surfaces, maybe even a bit more. 

[sussexcountyobs]

Just measured 4" on elevated non paved surfaces. Maybe only 2 on the streets before I got home, but they plowed earlier. Streets are white again. Light snow falling. 31°

[Juliancolton]

An even 4.0" here as precip winds down. My biggest storm of the season, laughably.

Upton still not biting whatsoever. Has it as a rain snow mix for most, under 1" near the coast and 1-2" north of the city. I'm thinking that's about what it'll be unless it comes in as a heavy wall. If it's scattered/light to moderate it'll struggle to accumulate anywhere and might mix with rain. 

Good call.  What I don't understand is how the timing on Monday was off by about 18 hours (or was it)?

2.5 , your extra 300 feet prob helped you get more 

[psv88]

Finished with just over 2" here. Nice little daytime event. 

[IrishRob17]

4.6” on the board. Was Just outside in a passing flurry but looked straight up and saw the moon. Complete winter wonderland out there with snow plastered on everything. 

[wdrag]

Wantage NJ (southern part) 3.8". Other reports on NWS PHI FB page inclusive of several in Sussex County. 

[Rtd208]

Picked up 0.66" of precipitation (mostly rain) for the day. 

Current temp 36

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

Didn’t jackpot on this one only 2.8 inches here. Seasonal now 30.7 inches. 
 

if nothing happens Saturday or for the next month this winter is a solid D, maybe it can eke out a C- because of the 40+ days of snow cover. 

[HeadInTheClouds]

Finished with 3 inches. 22 for the season. 

[ForestHillWx]

2” at the homestead. Elevation factored in big time. Slush coating at the office in Basking Ridge. 

[wishcast_hater]

3” here in Lagrangeville as well. Just finished snow blowing the driveway. You would think my 16 year old would do it since it was a snow day up here. 

[HeadInTheClouds]

CMC/RGEM did really well with this one. They had this for several days before any of the other models jumped onboard. Go Canada. 

[snywx]

5.2” final here

28.2” for the season
