5.2 storm total..
I feel ya. We got majorly shafted a couple of years back under an almost identical setup. I lived near Coatesville at the time and we were forecasted something on the order of 1-2' of snow. What we actually got was 6" of nothing but sleet. I remember being as angry and as disappointed as you. It sucks, for sure.
Hoping you and the rest of the region get better snows in the following weeks.

Front steps have 4" of new snow since I cleared them around 6. Holy 2"/hr batman!

No, I think that has to be overall storm totals.
I'm not sure about that. I'm already over 12" here in Reading...

I don’t have a ruler at work unfortunately and I can’t really tell since we’ve already shoveled a few times and there’s piles everywhere.
Just measured about 12.5" on my back deck here in Reading.

Work just got cancelled again for tomorrow. Two snow days in a row! Can't remember the last time that happened. (Work is in SNJ but a lot of ppl have over an hour commute so that's why they pulled the plug I think. Nice change of pace to work somewhere that actually cares about their employees.)

Just measured 4" of new snow since I cleared the driveway 3 hours ago. Puts me right around 10" so far.

Looks like we're transitioning from tiny flakes to bigger ones again. Rates increasing as well. 28.7°F.
-
Pancake flakes have moved on. Now getting light, fine flakes. I think it was snowing ~1"/hr for a couple of hours though; might head out to clear the driveway again in a bit.

Huge pancake flakes mixing in with the sleet now. Just cleared the driveway, looking like it's already caving lol

Consensus was that heavy snow would be in south east pa by 10 am. I’m not seeing any post history that this would happen except for one person who said to expect people to bail early. Huge mismatch between sentiment over last 24 -36 hours and observations.
My parents report nothing falling in Oxford, PA. Up here in Reading, steady pingers on the windows mixed with light snow atm. 25.3°F. Thinking about firing up the snowblower for an initial pass on the driveway/sidewalk.

I think you can juuuust see the coastal development creeping up the DelMarVa now.

Massive dry SLOT here in Reading. lol
Got about 4" of snow so far, not too shabby. Hoping for more tomorrow.

NAM is a beautiful
Haven't we all learned by now to ignore the 06Z and 18Z NAM? It's like, why even bother looking at them since they are purely computational and based on old data. (At least for these types of systems.) Nice to see it come back though, ngl.

Approaching 3 inches in Chadds Ford, PA. If you want a laugh, go on to the Mid-Atlantic Forum. Warnings were downgraded to advisories for DC and Balt.
I don't want to laugh at that. I lived in DC for a time and it was magical when it snowed there. I'll be disappointed in solidarity if they don't get as much as "promised" from all of this.

Grass is finally covered. 22.6°F and moderate, fine snow. It's just beautiful outside.

Snowing again here. Very small flakes. Untreated surfaces are covered but can still see the grass through what's already fallen. Looks like maybe .5" accumulation so far IMBY.

Please don’t worry now. The best snow will be tomorrow when the coastal gets going.
Oh I'm not worried, just slightly annoyed. Was enjoying some quality SnowTV with the wife.

Snow all but stopped here. One minute there were large flakes and just now it's barely doing anything. Hope this snow hole doesn't last long!

January 31-February 2, 2021 Major Winter Storm Observations
in Philadelphia Region
Posted
21" right now IMBY. Temp up to 31.6°F, and it looks like it might start getting a little breezy if I'm not mistaken. If so, and with snow still falling at current rates around the LV, the drifts tomorrow are gonna be epic...
