We deserve a nice, warm, early Spring after the brutal Winter we have just endured. Yes, it snowed a lot, which was fun at times. There were also periods of brutal, bone chilling cold and dry weather and more ridiculously windy days than I can count.

This year it's over. I'm not saying that it won't cool down after the incoming torch but there won't be anymore snow after next week, especially near the coast.

It's over, and thank F*cking God for that.

After the threats this weekend and early next week, things really warm up. Both the GFS and Euro really pump up the Bermuda ridge. We could be looking at lower 70's outside of Long Island for an extended stretch beginning the end of next week.

I’m closing in on 18” here now. Decent chance I get over 20”. That band looks parked. HRRR has it sticking around another 2-3hrs.

I’m under a solid band now. Heaviest snow here since dawn.

The way it was coming down around midnight I thought for sure I’d wake up to about double what we got.

I wonder if that band is going to make it here or if this it. Stuck under subsidence.

Only about a foot here in Clarkstown. I expected to wake up to more than this. I must have just missed that death band. Just flurrying here.

Extreme NW NJ, just NW of Sparta is in subsidence now.

And you were worried. You do this with every storm.

It’s over me now. Heaviest snow so far.

Wind has picked up. My big Magnolia on my back patio is swaying. It looks stressed with all the snow on the smaller branches.

Looks like the sharp cutoff will be near the Warren County line in NJ. Near Clinton.

Nothing is being reported in Rockland yet. About 331 in Westchester.
