I measured 3.3" about 15 minutes ago. I picked up the bride at work, the roads are slicker than snot on a door knob, as my Old Man used to say. 

6.4” here. Definitely changed over to a higher snow ratio and gusts out of the n/e around 20-25. Down to 24 degrees the ground layer is definitely freezing up. With a forecast low of 14 tonight, it will be a tricky drive on the roads.

Nice. Measured 5.5" about 45 minutes ago, light snow 26/24 here.

Does anyone else measure liquid too? 6.9" here melted down to .49" We knew the ratios would increase as the arctic air moved in but that's an impressive average ratio of 14:1 for the storm IMO. 21.5" for the season. 

I do not check ratios but I did just clean off the cars and shovel and the snow was light.

No help here either. I'm strictly snow totals, and low temperatures each month.

Speaking of snow totals my final here was 8.2 inches. Eastern Orange County seems to be the jackpot in this one. All of the 8-9 inch totals seem to extend from here to parts of Dutchess. The band that extended over those areas from about 1:30-4:00 was impressive.

I’m at 8.0” for the total. Agree on the band that set up shop over us gave us the jackpot. The ratios in the evening also helped out too. As Rob mentioned it was at 14:1.

Ok, CPcantmeasuresnowormelthisownsnowtotals :P I figured you'd be all over measuring anything and everything about snow.:sled:
 

I took a core sample from the pack to dig a little deeper and got .48" Sometimes snow can miss the Stratus, especially in bigger storms.

I actually have considered beginning this. So I need to buy a stratus? I'm long overdue.

You betcha, see below, it's around $30. Everyone knows I like to bust chops but I also like to encourage and help folks with at least somewhat accurate measuring and record keeping. I can't stand the eye ball measurements not followed up with a real measurement. If anyone has any questions on how to use the Stratus just let us know.

I do.  Slightly less than 10:1 here from what the gage was able to catch (3.6" / 0.37").  Have a core sample melting now.  They usually show more water.
