I luv where I live and BAM = New City, NY, recorded some of the highest snowfall in the region from the winter storm on January 25-26, 2026, with totals reaching 17.6 inches. This was the top, or near-top, total for New York State, following intense, fast-moving snow that created dangerous travel conditions throughout the Hudson Valley.

This stuff is bulletproof, a pickup just came down my block and didn’t event dent this stuff. You could ice skate.

I have family stuck in Texas trying to get back to Florida. That’s not happening for a few days I don’t think.

Yeah, surface temps != ratios. I remember a few years ago those kuchera maps gave me 10-12 in a WAA event, I ended up with around 7 and was disappointed. I like the approach old school mets like Bernie Rayno use. He uses models as tools to help make forecasts, but his #1 tool is the depth of knowledge and experience he has as a meteorologist who has been doing it for decades. I recall him mentioning in a video a week ago he believed the storm would take more of a northern track due to the overall setup and his previous experience as a meteorologist who has seen this setup before.

I don’t have a dedicated snowboard spot where I live for consistent measurements like the official OBS and COOP sites. I took 50 measurements in a nearby open baseball dirt field away from any obstructions which averaged at 9”. The field had completely lost any snowpack from the last event. Closer to the fence line the average was 10-12” with a maximum peak of 15” right behind the long fence. In closer to the houses here my average is also 10-12”. So I can understand the variability in the official NWS OBS from urban to rural locations and between the public, CO-OP, and other readings. Prior to this weekend I measured 13” from the collection of smaller events with marginal temperatures at times.

yea the snow growth went up and down by the minute, very strange. Also by far the coldest storm ive ever witnessed. 6-7F the whole time during the day

This snow has meat in it here. My snowblower is having a tough time and there’s a blue tinge to it.

15”-16” in Greenfield,

10” at home in North Waterboro, so not a memorable storm there. But I drove to Nubble Light in York and they had way more there. Here’s a pic of Fox’s Lobster - wind was whipping. Check out the drifts against the building

This should keep you satisfied for a bit. Great storm for all of SNE.

I have a pic of the 12z gfs from Thursday but the pic is too big for this forum totally 977 mb at benchmark.

Isn’t this more Feb 2-3?

Some flurries here this morning. We must have had some freezing mist/drizzle overnight, as my car was coated in ice. Meanwhile, my flight to the American Meteorological Society conference has been canceled now a second time...

amazing how snowman 19 all of a sudden vanished lol..

Same here in Barre Town. Measured 5" last night and another 5 this morning.

Very even snowfall distribution. 11” town at 750ft and 11” at 3,000ft. No change with elevation. I saw Jay showed 8-12”… wonder if they somehow saw a big change with elevation. Not seeing a range at all here.

That's always a possibility with these, That's why for here anyways, I prefer Miller B's because they tend to get going further north around our latitude

The sleet didn’t knock the depth down here either, guess there was 2” or so of sleet but it all counts and you can see now how much denser it made the snowpack.

light snow here

I'm sure my luck will be similar. Since I work in Asheville, they will expect me there tomorrow. They got nothing basically.

After yesterday's 11th winter event of the season which totaled 12.8" of sleet/snow here in East Nantmeal we are at 230% of normal snowfall at 34.1". This is about 96% of our annual average snowfall. Today will be the "warmest" day of the week with temperatures hopefully making it up into the low to mid 20's. For the rest of the week temperatures will likely remain in the mid to upper teens for highs and lows near or below zero for much of the area. In fact, here in EN the NWS has a forecast low of 5 below zero on Thursday morning - in my 23 years at this location I have never recorded a temperature that cold. After some flurries today we look dry for the rest of the work week. Some models are hinting and our 12th winter event of the season next weekend....but we don't shovel or scrape model snow.

this could be one of are best winter sin a very long time..

18” here….great storm. Heavy snow for almost the whole thing, with varying snowgrowth. Just finished digging out…18” is a lot of snow..forgot how much it really is. Buried. That brings us to 40” on the season now. Only 10” more for a normal snow season here. I think we can easily pull that off with a whole second half of astronomical winter to go. Obviously way above average here now YTD.

I dont. I got it off the mid Atlantic forum. My location is kinda in both lol. Im in the most upper part of the SE but in the lowest part of the mid Atlantic
