Four aftershocks ranging from 1.8 to 2.2, so far.

Haven't felt any of those. I'm only a few miles away from the epicenter. Was really cool to feel this morning. 

I was at a big sports complex with my 4 year old. He was in the bounce house, so didn't feel it, lol.

Shook the whole building.

Amazing how much our winter changed with this one week. About 14 inches for me between the two storms so our area went from way below average snowfall to now about average for the season. Awesome week! 

20" this week. I think we are up to 28" on the season. Turning into a good winter and still have a few weeks to inch our way up to avg or better!!

As of about 5.50 am the snow band finally petered out and I measured 11.0" for a paltry 1" in the last hour - usually i would kill fire that lol.  Could still get another inch over the next few hours but the main event is over. Saw 12" retorted in Readington and plenty of 10+" amounts in CNJ and 9.9" in Metuchen at 5 am which is very close to my 10" at 4.45 am. Really feeling like a once in a lifetime event for a surprise localized major storm and especially getting 2"/hr rates for 5+ hours.  Very LES like.

Branchburg at 12"!!

Unbelievable!!

It has me in the jackpot zone.... where is this 14.5 inches of snow coming from lol?

 

Is the radar really going to blow up that much in a short amount of time? 

I'm at about 3" in the little purple hole in Somerset County...not looking like 9" in the next few hours

im right up the street from you across the border in Montgomery....Im thinking sloppy 3-4 inches similar to that last one...higher amounts maybe on grass

I still think we get 6." We aren't in the worst spot.

On top of the crust from Tuesday there is nearly 1.5".  On my deck an inch.  But all other area's minus my back paver walkway its just wet.  Hoping to get out later to have a drink withh friends.

A bunch of us are taking the kids to WOP at 2pm and we are bringing beers. Come by for a drink.

Just hit 1"

Its funny how its only sticking to the snow on the ground. My driveway is just starting to get covered and the roads are completely clear.

My measurements later might be on top of crusty old snow and ice.

Great snow day, lol

Would have been packed. 25 years ago schools rarely closed, the trusty 7 train took my mother around in all sorts of storms and blizzards, and the idea of banning travel would have been ludicrous. 

Now we live in a world where everyone with a twitter account and an ounce of power feel the need to preemptively declare an emergency, tell us how this setup is more dangerous than anything before, and use both those reasons to take away the right to leave the house from hours before an event to hours or days after.

Cant wait to see my kids school delayed 2 hours for 3 inches of snow on Tuesday because Westchester never saw snow before 

It's getting ridiculous. My kids have had 2 rain days off this year. Yes, a few roads in town were flooded, but there were alternative routes to the schools.

I bet they will have a delay on Tuesday too.

as for the rivers in New Jersey perhaps it’s time to start thinking like they did on Staten Island after Sandy.

 

Maybe it’s time to move people away from those rivers.

 

Obviously, we’re in a new climate regime now with this kind of thing is going to be happening frequently and it’s not right to keep people in harms way. Especially when harm seems to come every few weeks now.

There is one area in town that floods badly multiple times a year. Every time people have all their ruined stuff on the curb and it's sad, but nothing is going to change. They live in the lowest point right next to the river. 

It's a very old section of town with some historic buildings, but people need to get out of there. Not sure what can be done with it. Abandoned houses and a park it will become.

This is 5 minutes from me.

3.35 ambient station, 3.42 cocorahs gauge.

Schools closed since the Raritan and its branches flooded over here leaving some neighborhoods cutoff.

Was trying to figure out which bridge that is. On Old York going towards Duke Island? Not Studdiford, right?

3.4" on my station...didn't lose power for once.

Total QPF finding nice max axis fro Hunterdon-Morris-Passaic counties.

1.54" right here on the border of Somerset and Hunterdon Counties

roughly the same timing here in Lambertville NJ

You guys are really that low? 

Branchburg is at 3" and east of you...

Back to moderate snow again, very happy

Kids sledding and loving it

Just over 3" and kinda dryslotted for a while...

It's a light mix, but looks like the line is sagging south

Closing in on an inch here now, coming down really nice...30.5 degrees too

Dusting already in Branchburg

again, you want to be N of 78 and along or west of 287 to have a good shot at plowable snowfall from this. set expectations to zero near the city

That's literally where I live, where they intersect...tough call

32 minutes ago, FPizz said:

3.75" on my ambient station.  Will check the cocorahs when all said and done to get the real #. 

3.97" on my station. Can't believe they canceled school today. I've heard the normal roads that flood are underwater, but a few you would think are fine.

Dropped to 21.3 overnight...nice and frosty out

27 and dropping

I love how some people are saying how it's almost over when models have it raining until tomorrow afternoon LOL.

For western areas it is pretty much done...No one really cares about light rain for the next 24 hours that adds up to under 1/2"

For everyone else, far from over...

That's why im asking.  I keep hearing about tonight and into tomorrow yet radar looks like it would end by lunch time.

Looks like the sun wants to come out here

2.23" so far, that was a surprise when I woke up...drizzle now, will it fill back in?

2.3" and counting for this crappy weekend.
