And you got your snow pile started. Will have to see if there was enough of a mound to have it saturate but maintain its shape and then freeze into a glacier to encourage more to pile on top.
Just came in from measuring and all the snow has stopped here (and there's no precip at the moment so overcast). Got 1.2" total so far. Temp is 25 with dp up to 19. Not sure what is coming next but something is!
It's software on my laptop - GRLevel3 v2.

(I also have GR2Analyst on a smaller convertible laptop which is great for convective stuff but not cheap - http://www.grlevelx.com/gr2analyst_2/)
Now down to SN- with temp that has fallen to 21 and dp still at 15. Have 1/4" so far and the initial puffs of wind have dropped off... but there is still some lavender parts of bands that have back-built to my west so will see if any of that stays together as the line moves to the east.
That's an old radar snapshot now (see the later posts)! I am under a coating now here in NW Philly!
ETA, temp is now down to 23. The snow is similar to the 1996 blizzard type of powdery "23 degree snow". Dp up to 15.
Did not expect the pink blob to drop all the way down here and sit over me (figured it would stay mostly in Montco) but it did. Temp still creeping down (at 24 but technically 23.7 and falling).
Getting some pinkage near me now. Didn't even have any flurry-notice. Just 0 to SN. Already have at least 0.1" out there. Temp still at 24 but creeping down and dp creeping up and now at 13.
Yeah literally within a minute after posting that, the "skies opened up" (like a thunderstorm squall).
The powdery stuff is blowing around the streets and walks and already have a dusting on the colder surfaces. Temp is down to 24 and dp up to 12.
