    I think parts of NNJ did better than I expected, while in my area we did a little worse; but it wasn't really a bust as we were never expected to get giant amounts, though 8-10 was on the table. A little jog west of those bands would have done it.

    10 minutes east of me. 2 inch difference. That's how these storms go sometimes. But the difference between 6-8 isn't worth losing sleep over. Well, none of this is actually....

    It's a decent event for the area, no question. But just couldn't get those sick bands to back over us. A couple hours of that and we'd have been in the 12 range. As it is it seemed to peter out around 6 am and never really got going again. The wind is also beating up the dendrites no?

    I don't see how we get there, really. Is it doing much by you ? It's really anemic here in Woodbridge. Visibility is good. Just went to Shop Rite. People are out shopping. Gotta be careful but not really a big deal here. Great for the snow plow contractors. Haven't seen a municipal plow yet today.
  5. weatherpruf
    Not really. Put down about half an inch in the last 2 hours.
  6. weatherpruf
    Yeah but the rates are anemic. We got what we got and 7 will be a win. Can't count the other guy's money, they say.....
  7. weatherpruf
    Same here. Way it is. Get out and enjoy. Will take a walk later.

    I don't think we are going to put much more down here as the snows are light, so I'm going out to clean up the 5-6 we got, which won't be too hard since a lot of the walkway has been blown clean. Can still see the grass in parts of my yard; the winds didn't help with the accumulations. At least we didn't miss the whole party right? Guess we got our best bands early on. I told my wife we didn't get that much snow and she was like oh good! It's tough being a weenie when you are surrounded by normal people.....

    Well someone has to be in the screw zone, though I wouldn't technically call it that bad, we do have snow OTG. Some areas to my west have even less. I never wanted two feet though, it is tough for me to handle.

    Well my son takes classes at the NY Aquarium and it takes him about 30 mins to get there from here on a weekend. That's Brooklyn. Weekdays would be worse I guess.

    See my updated post. And Eeyore gets a bad rap:) And I thought I was going out of my way to be less negative. Guess it didn't work?

    Are we only allowed to post observations if we are getting rocked? It's hard to hide my disappointment, sorry about it. But it's a good suggestion to do something else. Which is what I'm gonna do. Sleep a bit then maybe some French toast. Or pancakes. With blueberries. Side of eggs and hash browns. Will warm up a cold morning, dontcha think?
  13. weatherpruf
    Well, gonna try to get some extra sleep. Don't expect much more outta this one. See you all later. Rack up some numbers, out there on LI and points south!
  14. weatherpruf
    Bad here too, though we have 5.5 according to one local who measured.
  15. weatherpruf
    Let me guess, I'm in one of those subsidence zones....is there some reason these zones tend to set up in the same areas? I've gotta wonder, because it happens in a number of storms. Must have something to do with the bay and geography.

    Spoke to a friend who is a "normal" over in Piscataway; told the shore was getting rocked he replied "better them than us." Which sums up how most people view it around in my parts.....Still a bit better rates would be nice. Already had a storm of this level this year. Well winter ain't over yet.
  17. weatherpruf
    30 minutes west of you it's just light snow.
  18. weatherpruf
    I think we are going to struggle to get beyond 6. Every map thrown out had us straggling the 7-12 line. The rates now just aren't going to cut it. This happens every time in these east based storms. We did better on Jan 2015 and Feb 2013. We need a few bands to make it west but it just ain't happening. I will note that its early and we can still rack up another inch or two throughout the day. Damn tight gradients!

    Just went out and checked. Snow has lightened up a lot here. The lack of reports from Middlesex County area tell me a lot; I see Jersey Shore, LI and some NYC here but my cohorts are all MIA. Some NW folks reporting in with a few inches.
  20. weatherpruf
    Think you meant something else; our point is they are actually even less west than modeled. We were looking at possibly 6-10, but that is unlikely now. Well maybe 6. 10 is almost certainly out, barring some radical change in the storm. It is what it is. It's a wintry day, just not a big event over here. Still hazardous to drive and generally a nasty morning, but not a big deal.

    They seem to stop at the Hudson it seems......in these eastern coastals. We get the sloppy seconds.
  22. weatherpruf
    It was in the some of the cards on and off right? 7 is gonna be tough at this rate. I'm usually good for 4-5 in these set ups. That little triangular cut to the west of Raritan Bay...leaves us high and dry in coastal storms but too far south for NW storms. Such has it ever been, though sometimes we get ours.
  23. weatherpruf
    We are out of it my friend. Those bands aren't coming even a little west, are they?
  24. weatherpruf
    Folks in LI and the Jersey Shore enjoy your big storm! If we snow all day here we might get to 6. We'll see.
  25. weatherpruf
    Reminding me of 2/6/10....not quite as bad, but 3-6 while 20 mins down the GSP has over a foot....and this was seen on many models. Oh well, looks nice out anyway. We are getting snow here but not heavy rates, and the wind is tearing it up. Just north of the GSP bridge.
