    Time to start saying goodbye to the pack.

    Big melts rest of this week. I suspect we'll be reduced to piles by March 1st though your area should hold a bit holder.

    My bottom 10 inches is solid ice lol. I was able to walk on it

    If, say, one cleared 7" from the board yesterday morning and then 18" more this morning, IMO that's 25" snowfall even if the depth is only 22".  (And I'm a bit jelly with my 5.5" of teenyflakes and maybe 2-3 more coming.  Also surprised that wdrag's map shows no obs from the NE half of Morris County.)

    I called into Mt Holly for snow reports three times this year and three times left off  including this one . Oh well they rather take Joe smoes off of Facebook them callers that actually went to one of there classes

    This would have been probably a 30” storm measuring the old clearing every 6 hours way. Measured about 19”, but we cleared the driveway at 7:30 pm, and definitely added at least 3” on the driveway. Snowboards added maybe 1/2” though. 

    That’s what I said as well, def would be 30 here but depth never got over 22 . Clearing off method isn’t acceptable anymore correct ?

    I have my doubts as well, BUT!! I can''t be sure.  I can tell you I'm confident of my 25...  I will post a CoCoRAHS summary - two day at 10AM.  That's what i would use as official.  NWS filters data as best it can in the hurried mode of posting the snowfall data, while doing many other duties, including answering phones. I have NOT seen PHI post 32", so it's a little dissapointing that it is out there.  Mendham, 30".  We know 25-30 up in these parts... You want some pix?  I went up and down my driveway with a snowblower 3x yesterday and will proceed again here at 8AM, but the road? Not yet plowed so i go nowhere.

     

    I live in butler I have 22 on the ground but yes more actually fell , but I only report snow depth . Nick Stefano who I am good friends with who you know as well has 22.5 on the ground on sparta Lafayette border and right near Newton as well .

    You would be correct here. Compaction is keeping pace with additional accumulation especially since last evening and over night snow was of more dense nature which is enhancing compaction of the fluff underneath.

    Yup my total ground is 22 , no doubt I had many more inches as what I shoveled  after it was cleared was at least 6 more inches .  Aren’t we supppose to report what’s on the ground ? My brother in law  lives in Hamburg and says he got 30 because he saw Newton’s report . I bet him 1000 dollars he doesn’t have 30 on the ground . He shut up real quick lol

    Data suggests this is/was a top 10 snowstorm for the region of NYC west through NJ and sw to Allentown. I spot checked calendar day records via XMACIS for NYC CP, Allentown, and Sussex NJ. If there need to be corrections, please let me know.  

     

    NYC CP for 2/1/21     14.8" not only[ a daily record, but ranked #10 highest.  POR back to 1869.

    Allentown for 2/1/21  22.4" not only a daily record but ranks top 2 or 3 depending on your data interpretation,-basically behind January 23ish, 2016 and ahead of January 9, 1996. Their 2 day is 26.9, ditto again #2 or 3 depending on your interp.  POR back to 1912.

    Sussex NJ 2 day (used my 25.0) but thats unofficial and subject to downgrade. Probably around 5th-9th heaviest event.  POR back to 1893.

    All of this in the Period of Record (POR).

    No way Newton has 32 inches on the ground
