lol go look at the NWS graphical map of snow totals. Such a narrow area got huge totals. I like tracking the storms more than the storms themselves so I am not really mad.

Precip stopped here for now. Already shoveled and the remnants melted which is nice. Maybe 3" just east of PHL. Heavy stuff to shovel.

Been nothing but sleet east of PHL. Just shoveled and it sucked. Heavy. Maybe 2.5" or so

Heavy sleet with snow mixed in just east of phl

Back to snow just east of phl

Seems like sleet now outside phl

Went outside to get the trash cans. Maybe 1" now on hard surfaces. It's snow again.

Doesn't seem like it's snowing right here outside of philadelphia despite what radar suggests. Sleet I guess. About 1/2" total accumulation. Going to be a gross mixture that probably ends up being a pain to shovel

Maybe an inch here so far. Haven't ventured out there. The birds are making noises though guess they don't mind

Going with 3-6 imby. Seen higher totals out there, don't like em at all.

You're being strange. I don't like it. Good luck

Glad this event was canceled. Had bad things written all over it for the region

People mentioned after 6 on here. They should stick to their day jobs. Freezing rain already falling. No one said 12pm lol lame stream included. Hopefully anyone who took their advice from internet weatherman is safe out there!

Uhh I care? What kind of question is that. I don't need to go anywhere but the news was saying and people were asking here if the daytime would be OK. The consensus was yes. Can't even predict the weather a day in advance LOL

What happened to this being an evening thing?

I don't have a generator. Guess I'll grill outside by a fire if it comes to it lol

I don't care if the rest of this month is snowy but I can't deal with more of this in March. I need good weather to work on my boat and some stuff outside. Working from home and putting my own gym in the basement has been awesome since I hate going out in the cold lol but I'm ready to at least work outside and get some fresh air.

It's not accurate and it never is lol

Can we please ban kuchera maps?

Supposedly mantua has about 4 according to NWS

It's a tough field. Not sure how far you'll get without an earth science/met degree. I switched majors a decade ago to IT since I met so many unemployed dudes with degrees in the field. Best financial decision I made in my life probably but I'm sure I'd rather be a weatherman. Best of luck.

1.5" maybe just outside of Philly. Lame stream news media gets it wrong again

Eh, never really saw anyone talk about the mixing but it was always an issue. I do agree that it's more north than anticipated though. Still got pingers going here near PHL. It'll switch back eventually

I think that's fair. I didn't expect this to amount to anything for SNJ a few days ago but ended up guessing 5-10 for the upper part of SNJ and 4-8 for the lower, and I think that's going to end up panning out perfect. Seems like this busted for the mid atlantic people, or busted in terms of what they were hoping for. Feel kind of bad for them folks. I will say this. I hate kuchera maps. I've said that before. And I hate models like the RGEM and the ICON. A lot of these maps/models showed unbelievable numbers for a lot of people. I think that is on the person still though. If someone chooses to ignore good models because they do not like the outcome or cling to kucheras, it's on them. Either way this ends up being the most snow I've seen in years. I've never even had to shovel since I bought my house a few years ago lol.

I'm only referring to SNJ. Sorry for the confusion! Stay safe on the roads anyone who has to deal with the afternoon commute. I'm glad I don't have to go anywhere today.
