So 4.7" was my peak new depth as far as I'm aware. Waiting on the Stratus to melt out for LE. Pretty much AWT totals across the board except for the northern metro doing a bit better than I expected.
Same current conditions as @gravityloverand same festivities as @sn0w. Glad we could do this at least once before spring.
Trying to decide on a location for tomorrow's sunrise hike. I've had Storm King on my mind for days, but that million car pileup on 9W is testing my nerve a little...
The northern lights were visible at least as far south as the Catskills and Poconos last night. I slept through it, naturally.

It would be hard to blame them for grading on a curve. This is, after all, the first widespread significant event of the season, with all the heightened impacts that come with that.
That's a solid map I think. The initial overrunning stage looks juicy enough, but assume climo ratios or slightly worse, given mediocre snow growth soundings throughout. Nothing wrong at all with a 4-6" deal.
I think warm season drought is just gonna be an annual thing during years without big tropical intrusions. You either get a stalled subtrop in June and then a hurricane PRE late summer, or you have water restrictions.
9.2" here against 18.5" in 15-16. I would think I'm climatologically favored to stay ahead (behind?) at this point.
The warmth today is a little meh locally. 58 so far.
