Light dusting of snow at my house in Dutchess County. Very surprised since most were saying the dry air would eat up and precipitation.

Yeah well it was well juiced coming this way,dry air couldnt dry everything out obviously. Also slight north jog helped a bit.

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

1/2 inch here 50 miles north of NYC. Nothing to get excited about but totally unexpected.

[Superstorm93]

Anyone in the LHV seeing any pavement impacts with that little steadier burst that moved through? 

 

[ILoveWinter]

Coming down decently in the UWS, def a white/wintry scene outside 

[Bxstormwatcher360]

Phil to dc gets another round of heavier snow later on,might be interesting to see how far north the ull can go. It's following the path of least resistance and currently near Huntington,wv.

In a bit of a lull now with very light, fine, pixie dust flakes falling, but radar looks nice approaching us from the SW, so should pick up soon.  We're up to 0.4" as of 10:50 am (2 hrs) and it's still 26F.  And brining works by the way for light snows like this: the street we live on, which was brined, is just wet, but the street that feeds into it is 100% snow covered.  

As of noon, we're up to 0.8" as that last ~40 minutes was pretty good snowfall, but we're back to very light snow. Could maybe squeeze out another 0.2" to get to 1", but not sure. Still gorgeous, though, as per the pic, which also shows the two roads I mentioned above, one brined and one not.

Mood flakes near ISP, no accumulation, I’m fine with this.

[winterwx21]

Decent burst of moderate snow here right now. Beautiful out there. 

[kat5hurricane]

Coming down nicely in midtown, some bigger flakes mixing in. Nice scenes

[dmillz25]

Probably about .5” here

Yeah getting back into it now with bigger flakes

[gravitylover]

Whoda thunk? Not me but here it is. This is legit moderate+ snow now. 

[EastonSN+]

Nice surprise today wasn't expecting road to get covered.

[Allsnow]

I think we're gonna get to just about 1 inch. 

[Allsnow]

Euro bumped north to match the radar 

[psv88]

I think this is the surprise of the day - that northern band well up into Rockland and Westchester and even a bit beyond.  Otherwise I think this all went as planned.  I was going with flurries to 1/2" for my location and so far I'm sitting just over .10" with ongoing flurries.  Totals further south also as forecast for the most part.

[RU848789]

1.6" reported in Basking Ridge - surprised they have more than us in Metuchen, but it did look like they had better bands, which is always a bit of a crapshoot.

Back to moderate snow again and for the next 10-15 min I think - could be about it, but might get us to 1".

[jm1220]

Central PA did quite well, better than expected from the 700mb fronto snow. State College has about 5”. 

Dusting/coating on colder surfaces, pavements starting to cave. Maybe with some heavier bursts I can get to 0.5”. 

[psv88]

Dusting to an inch from 5 days out was a good call by me and Upton. Well done.

Light snow in Sleepy Hollow. Side walks are covered but roads are fine.

[Brasiluvsnow]

New City,,,,,snowing lightly and everything - yard-deck-sidewalk and streets are white

[eduggs]

Should be a good burst for most of NYC metro over the next 30 minutes or so.

[sussexcountyobs]

Moderate snow here in Dumont, NJ

[Ace Mahomes]

Light to moderate snow coming down at my office in midtown for the past 1.5 hours

everything was nicely treated here so the roads are only wet as are the sidewalks and driveways, the snow has only accumulated on natural terrain (grass, trees, bushes, etc.) as well as rooftops and cartops.

Sorry, bust day at work. It was steady light snow for a few hours but has stopped as of right now. Untreated roads/sidewalks are slick and there are numerous accidents reported throughout Orange County. I did have time to report that on mPING earlier, keep that resource in mind as it can be useful. Stay safe out there.
