About 10-11 inches in central nassau...just south of roslyn, about 1 mile northwest of where the meadowbrook hits the northern state...snow was light and fluffy, much much easier to shovel than the blizzard where we got 18-19....this is much less annoying...and prettier

You can attest to the almost surreal situation up here...

My fellow worker sent me a video with the sun breaking out in Lindenhurst, and I send him one of the artillery assault of snow and wind here. I work for the county so I'm trying my best to get In but...it just seems impossible for hours.

William - looking at the radar loop, I strongly suspect LI Sound enhancement from about Smithtown east to Mattituck in the past few hours with the WNW flow. Very rare to see Sound enhancement on a wind with a westerly component, but that's what seems to be happening. The highest totals on Long Island have been coming in along the North Shore of Suffolk County - Centerport, Smithtown, Kings Park, Port Jeff, etc.

About 23" on the ground...about 19" new snow...

7.1" in SW Essex County...pretty boring storm (dont think I ever saw above 3/4"/hour rates really...)

But Ill always take a solid 7" storm. Brings me above my season avg for the year and currently at 32.6"

and Miller Place ;) Based on geography, I think that's the place on Long Island that probably averages the most snow (around 32" a season).... look at how much of a trajectory a N/NW has across the Sound before it reaches them!

Just measure 18.15" in Wading River, still snowing moderately now with occasional bursts of heavier snow. Pretty good intensity for the back edge of the precip shield.

Thanks Alex! Usually you have N-NE winds then as storm moves away naturally things dry out and winds turn NW. Since this really got going it's been driving the heaviest snow almost directly at my place facing west on sod farm.
