Our best snow is the next 1-2 hours. Nice little band will swing through.

Nice! Enjoy it. If anyone deserves it. It is you. But I've told you many times over the years. Move to Orange county NY if u like snow. Warwick, Florida, Goshen, Pine Island etc.. Half the people there are NYPD and FDNY.

My co worker moved up to woodbury. He hates the commute to work.

[NittanyWx]

Looks on track so far.

 

28, SN, 2" on ground here in Wilton, CT.

I'm. old enough to remember those guys. Considered one of the worst of the early 80s. I kinda liked that song though. And yes, i had hair like that back then. Me and my local contemporary Bon Jovi. He still has his hair though. And I never played an instrument.

[Metasequoia]

Cant see Jersey City's lights from across the Hudson. That's pretty heavy snow.

I get it. You do get used to it. I've been doing it for 32 years, from here to eastern Begen county.

Cleaned roughly 3.5-4" of snow off my truck leaving work.   Hugeeee difference in snowfall rates once I got south to about Paramus, nj.  Up around Franklin lakes it was very difficult to see while driving. 

I hot mayyybe 2 inches at home in little ferry.  Boxer puppy absolutely loved the snow in the backyard!

The band that’s just exiting me down in Toms River was beautiful… very high rate and heavy snow. That should plaster you guys good.

NWS is going to do well. Let's not keep doubting them please 

My issue with them earlier wasn't about the forecast, itself, but about the poor communication of that forecast to the public at their 4 pm shift change, where they put out confusing graphics (the snow from 7 pm onward when it was 4 pm and no event snowfall update) and text products showing a WWA saying 1-3" additional snow at 3:30 pm for Middlesex County when nobody in the county had more than 1/2", leading one to believe we'd only get 1-3" total, when the AFD was still saying 3-6" for the 95 corridor as was my point-and-click forecast, which was 4" at that point.  At the end of the day I probably have 2" now and will likely get another 2" vs. the advisory this morning saying 3-5" (and my point and click and their 4 am snow map saying I'd get about 5.3").  I have no issue with getting 4" if that's what we get or even just 3+" - but they need to improve their graphics/text communications.

I've got three poodle pups that I'm holding for future owners, but I won't let them out because poodle fur is like velcro for snow. I'm tellin you, i could sell these boys for a mint.They are criminally cute.

Hoping that intense band clips us as it heads Northeast. 

[mob1]

Approaching 4 inches in SI (have about 300 feet of elevation), definitely more than I expected this afternoon.  

[lee59]

Heavy snow here approaching an inch

[Stormlover74]

Continues to dump under this band. Heavier bands popping up in western nj near the back edge so hopefully can continue through 9pm

[Allsnow]

Yup. Def wasnt the last hoorah in the city last hour. Or most of the metro. Long island should get a good couple hours here too i hope.

[NittanyWx]

Next 90-120 mins time to see if N Shore can squeeze that extra inch out of this band.

I moved to PA almost 20 years ago.  I got the idea after observing that many of the people that worked at Midtown South had cars with PA plates.  I worked across from there at the time.

[psv88]

LIE and northern state completely snow covered out to central Suffolk. Dangerous night to be on the roads. 
 

somehow the southern state is mainly wet though
