if it's heavy yes, but at least on the coast daytime events get harder and harder. March 2018 had a few events here that were wasted by white rain until we got to late day
with another storm (or 2) most areas could get to above normal seasonal snowfall. In my area at 24.4 at BDR which is about 4 inches short of seasonal ave.
yeah I'm 7 miles NW of there and we had easily 25 inches give or take a couple. I'm surprised no one has ever gone back to adjust it. For the Blizzard of 2013 they measured 30 inches which was spot on given surrounding reports.
