  1. No snowfall obs? You guys are getting ungrateful. smh 0.3" here
  2. Yeah, model QPF was extremely good in most areas, except for the very southern fringe of the moisture plume. One of the better-behaved systems of the year thus far.
  3. Nice sunset up in this region. Perhaps the best of the year so far. 3.2" storm total on 0.31" liquid. Nice little event, though ratios left a lot to be desired.
  4. Radar returns are really falling apart upstream from me. Probably not going to be too many surprises on the high end... a general 2-4" as we've thought for a while.
  5. 1.7" here so far. In a pretty decent band with nice snow growth at the moment.
  6. I finally tallied my running total for the season, 34.9" so far. 4.7" more gets me to double last season's total. Doubt that happens tomorrow, but certainly doable by week's end.
  7. The flow across the country is absolutely screaming this week. Nickles and dimes.
  8. We all know you'd easily have 3" if not for your puritanical measuring practices. What is it, once every 72 hours?
  9. Honestly, I'm most disappointed about the arctic blast trending shorter and weaker. Was looking forward to some honest-to-goodness cold.
  10. I guess this hearkens back to the perennial debate about what constitutes a bust. We knew this was a light storm with most forecasts hovering around 2-4", and Albany's 90th-percentile totals below 1". IMO a true bust has to transcend categories of significance... like, you prepare for a major event and get a minor one. Going from minor to even more minor might just be a standard under-performer. In other words, it's not a true bust unless it's from the Büst region of France, otherwise it's just sparkling disappointment.
  11. Yeah, not the best showing over the interior, 0.7" here. The gap between the nor'easter and incoming trough never filled in like I expected. I think we're at the point in the winter where 40 and sunny would be preferable to a sisyphean inch of snow over the course of 8 hours.
  12. I think 3" is a safe bet for most of us tomorrow. The northern stream shortwave is doing most of the heavy lifting around here, so we don't necessarily the coastal low's forcing, just its moisture. Anyone who does manage to find a mesoscale band enhanced by the CCB could pick up 5".
  13. Don't exaggerate. We've only been tracking this storm for a few days. 24/14F here, though the rate of cooling has leveled off quite a bit with the high clouds streaming in.
  14. By and large, most people seem to be back in normal socializing mode. I was invited out by a couple different groups tonight. I think you can guess my feelings on that without too much trouble so I won't get into it, but Saturday night is alive and well.
  15. I only ever had 0.2" on the board, despite snowing for quite a while this morning. Snow depth continues to rapidly shrink and is now down to 8".
  16. Awful news. I don't believe we've directly interacted much, but I certainly remember reading his posts. Thank you for keeping us in the loop.
  17. The Hudson Valley convergence zone is starting to act up as winds finally turn NNW. Steady light snow here to freshen up the freshening of the first freshening of the pack.
  18. My lucky snow shovel from childhood broke today. Goodnight, sweet prince.
  19. What was your depth before the storm started?
  20. It really is honest-to-goodness days and days of snow. Another 1.1" of fluff for what I think should be pretty close to the final total of 16.8", though it's still snowing, so who knows
  21. Same here. I'm glad for it, honestly. It looks a lot prettier and it makes measuring much more reliable.
