Thanks for those, interesting. For the area of Orange County it details, it’s anywhere from 40-55 inches, which is about what I’ve always gone with. Highalnd mills where I am I always estimated the average to be around 50 inches although in the last decade from my own measurements somewhat higher than that.

I'm at 11.0 even right now. It's hard to find any reliable sights in the HV with good historical snowfall averages. Poughkeepsie hasn't done snowfall totals for years but when they did they were atrocious, even worse than Central Park was at measuring. It seemed like anything less than 3 inches they didn't bother to measure many years. I guess that's one of the reasons they sopped them measuring. Finally someone at NWS realized the data was bad.

Very true in many cases. I’m in Orange County five miles west of the river and I’ve had a snowpack since January 7th. About 4 inches otg as of this morning.
-
Quite possibly the best post of the day.
-
I love a snowpack like this. Very tough for the normal January to even make a dent in it.
-
From the headline change from last night can we now assume any threat of an analfront for Thursday is now behind us?
-
The urging was good. It was about time I did a little work myself regarding these storms.
-
Never really expected this. The voice of reason, Snowman19, had assured everyone there would be an inch or less below I84. Still can't quite figure out why that guy hates snow so much. Sledding accident as a kid, car accident on snow as an adult? bad skiing accident that left him disfigured? Correct on the HRRR, it nailed this for our area. At Robs urging I actually model watched the last two days instead of just reading comments.

A little over 5 inches before the changeover. 36° now with light rain.
-
Measured 4.8 inches at 1:30 so I'm sure I'm over 5 now. 29° with heavy snow, the changeover line is sitting right at my door.
-
Just went out for final measurement of the night. I'm now about 10 miles north of the changeover line so it was now or never. 29° with heavy snow, 4.8 inches so far, looks like I will make 5 and a little over. The HRRR nailed this , at least so far, for my location Highland Mills in Orange County NY

2.4 inches, 25° and moderate snow continues in Highland Mills Orange County NY Temperature up 5 degrees in the last three hours.

Thank goodness for the 11:00 PM reading or Central Park would have reported a trace at 7 AM
-
22° moderate/heavy snow 1.8 inches so far, Highland Mills in the HV, 55 miles NNW of NYC

22° moderate/heavy snow 1.8 inches so far in Highland Mills

1.8 inches new snow, 22° and moderate/heavy snow in Highland Mills, Orange County NY If I can squeak 5 inches out of this before the dreaded change to sleet/freezing rain I'd consider it a huge win.
-
20 with moderate snow. Anything more than 4 inches would be a victory.
-
Yes at the airport which is their official NWS station it’s the first measurable snow in four years.
-
Got to -1° this morning, thank God the two year 11 month streak, for me anyway, is over.
-
Does anyone else get frost quakes in their yard during these cold nights? We get them every winter, very loud on the coldest nights, like last night. From what I've read about them they're nothing to be concerned about, but one of these mornings I'm expecting to see a crater in my backyard. Any insight would be appreciated if anyone has experienced them.
-
4° right now, I would hope I go below zero by morning to at least end my three year streak without a sub zero reading. SInce tomorrow night looks like a disaster snow wise, still hoping to walk away from this with 4 inches net, I'd at least like that.
