We ended up with 2.8" of snow here in East Nantmeal which makes 13.3" of snow this week! That is more than our normal February snow of 11.9". Season to date we are at 24.5" which is only 0.8" below our normal seasonal snow to date. The storm delivered an unexpected dump of snow as a narrow band of heavy snow formed just 18 to 30 miles north of Chester County. For example in Fleetwood 9.0" of snow fell just 19 miles north of EN. Another example is just south of Allentown a spotter reported 12.1" while only 2 miles north of there another spotter recorded almost 4.5" - impossible to forecast those kind of snow bands!
