35 with big wet flakes mixing in with the the rain here. 

Snow tv with temp at 34. If it comes down a bit heavier might get the temp to drop to near freezing and get a little coating.

33 with moderate snow. Coating!

Down to 29. Has been flurrying for awhile but picking up to light snow.

Those yellows and oranges on radar to the NW look interesting.

Coating on mulch and cars with light snow in Havre de Grace

Just too warm at 33.1° - could have been a nice little event if it were 2° cooler. It’s been snowing for 3 hours at this point.

Yeah long duration snow tv lol. I had that one intense band come through that coated the deck and grass. Snow too light/temps a tad above freezing since. Still, it's a few hours of snow falling. No complaints!

Ripping west of Philly per radar. Someone will pick up 3”

Inverted trough. Models love to depict heavy precip from that feature in our area in the LR, but it always ends up Philly and north.

First snow of the season this afternoon. Flurries and showers, no accumulation.

[nj2va]

One of the greatest snowstorms I ever witnessed. Had 4.5”/hr at the height with pure TSSN+ for over a hour. Measured right around 20” in Carney. Randallstown had over 2’ 

The things I would do for that storm again 

I was in Lancaster at Millersville for that event. We got 16" I believe but far eastern Lancaster (Gap, PA I think) got a 20" report as the got nicked a few times by the heavier bands. Ironically, up in PA the GFS came out with an early big storm that had something like 10" - 15" of snow from the turnpike south, backed off at D4, then came back at D2 with the exact same result. Harrisburg only got 5" or 6" out of it. We were really on the edge up here. 

Then it melted off in like 72 hours. But it was still a decent event!

The two inch soil temps at Keedysville are down to 35° so that makes sense everything is accumulating more effectively.

Looks like a dusting here overnight/early morning
