I agree. If we can minimize the snow melt when we mix and have some more snow tomorrow maybe we get to 4 or 5 in?

Exactly what I’m thinking at this point

[WarrenCtyWx]

Almost 8" here in Northern Warren County. Now over to sleet.

That's here.  It's ripping snow right now, with 5 inches OTG.  That more than doubles my obs from an hour and 45 minutes ago.

Wow! Nice! Going to be a glacier by tomorrow night 

[MANDA]

Moderate rain here, mixed with some sleet.  Change over about 8:15.  Measured 3.80” at 8:15 when I heard sleet mixing in.  Currently all rain and 32 degrees.  We’ll see if I can pickup a bit more snow tomorrow morning.  Not expecting much though.  

[FPizz]

4.5" here.  Mostly sleet now.  Overjoyed

[sussexcountyobs]

Mod to heavy snow falling. 28°

Just measured 3.2"

9" Sussex County. Middle of vernon 1300 elevation. Heavy snow. Measured 2 inches last hour. Pulling atm

2.8” otg

[Irishmick9]

About 4in Vernon Valley. Huge flakes coming down now. Talking about 1-3 inch rates for next few hours per special weather statement for Sussex Co.

[KeithB]

2.6 inches on the ground and snowing moderately in central rockland county. How am I supposed to measure this exactly as to avoid packing? Do I wait for let's say 3 inches, and then clear it, and then start anew and just add it?

[FleetwoodWx]

The difference between Fleetwood and northern Yonkers in Westchester is astounding. Absolutely nothing on the ground in Fleetwood but 5 miles west in Yonkers you need a plow in front of you to get through because the roads are so bad. I just drove that route. Never have seen that much of a difference.   It has to be the sound influence plus 100 feet or so elevation.

No way that’s bogus 

[ForestHillWx]

Measured 5” in two locations at 8:15 when outside with the kids before the flip to a mix. 

Fun little storm. Even got a half-assed snowman standing in the yard.

I'm at 1215' elevation in Vernon about 9 miles from you. No mixing issues here. We are at 4"? Post a pic of that 9".

Wish I could upload a video of 2 inch rates an hour. Won't let me. Puking at 1300 ft vernon NJ Sussex county

Snow making a comeback on the N Shore? Looks like the CC line is crashing south. 

[psv88]

28/28 with heavy snow. 1.5” otg. Super wet snow that compacts to ice immediately when stepped on. Calcium chloride is key for a base.

[lee59]

Still just 35.3 degrees here, not really a lot of warming. Could be a good sign for those inland.

CC mix line is about at the LIE. Looks like the heavy precip was able to punch through the warm layer.

Went to a mix in butler.  Have 4 inches here

[Cfa]

Went from small-ish flakes to plain rain to chunky flakes in Lake Grove.

[psv88]

This is wild. Roads snow covered now. The layer of sleet set the table before. Roads are a mess 

[donsutherland1]

Following up on the discussion concerning 10:1 snow maps, through 7 pm EST, New York City had received 0.14” precipitation, of which 0.2” was snow. The low temperature during the snowfall was 34. The snow-to-liquid ratio was 1.4:1.
