I know this is nuts. This band has been parked over the area since 11 pm and just continues to dump. I’ve been waiting for it to let up to go to bed but it just keeps going. Just hit the 10.0” mark on the snowboard.
The band held together and is beginning to retrograde as the storm pivots south it's the best of all worlds

Just measured 7" on the level with moderate snow
29F

Never doubt the HRRR. This storm is pathetic. And no way Redsky is at 4.5. My best friend in QTown said he has 1 inch. Lives right off of Tollgate.
I already said I live north of Qtown I am only 8 miles south of Macungie, Qtown proper was SOUTH of the band
Right I am over 6"

Light snow here for about the last half hour, once in a while it picks up a good bit, at the moment it's lighter. Down here at the kettle fire there's a dusting on some surfaces. The breeze did pick up a bit right before it started snowing - it felt like it was on the doorstep. Good stuff!
Midnight kettle fire nice

Any Berks reports? Looks like that band meant business and affected much of eastern Berks as well. Might just have to wait for the folks to wake up and hear how much they got
I will have to dig out the ancient scrolls from the 80's and 90's I think 2.5" an hour is the heaviest snow I have witnessed. That band was dropping 4-5" an hour.
