still snowing hard here.

just south of you. no pingers yet.

so i'm across the arthur kill woodbridge area; usually have around the same amounts though state island sometimes does better. just trying to get a sense of where things are. i think i could be around 8 as well from eyeballing.

which part? in general....

wow nice thump.

thats the spirit

while i would like more snow, this has been a nice event.

just went out to clean a spot for the dogs; it is really nasty out, wife put a coat on the dog, the hood somehow covered his eyes and he could not find his way back; i had to go out and get him. jeebus. anyway, looked more than 6 inches to me, and i been at it a long time. would love to hit 8 and a few inches of sleet on top to bring us to 10-12 total.

lets eke out another inch

well, i said my ceiling for swfe's was around 6 for snow before changeover.....key word; around....looks like we may get several inches on the sleet end though, not sure how you measure that with compression....

starting to get a lull right now where i'm at. at least its a lull compared to earlier.

it always gets here faster. always. mt holly said 1-2 pm for the sleet for i 95 corridor. what have you got in depth there?

rte 1 was fine at 8 am, for the two of us who were not salters or plows.......

wow looks close to blizzard conditions out there....damn this is dangerous weather, no question...

thanks for the report. roads were empty this morning. i haven't been back out

i'm in the same area roughly; rahway border. it is too nasty to go check but its been coming down the last hour or so. thanks for measuring so i don't have to.....

really ripping over northern middlesex county right now; RU848789 must be in his glory; waiting for an update....

wow pretty good down there franklin.

it's a tough call; mt holly laid out their reasons why we could still hold onto snow longer but also saw the sleet. they didn't reduce things that much, really. i still have a tough time believing in the higher amounts here.

some nice green blobs headed this way

the drivers are paid for the whole shift; if they aren't doing something people will complain they are being paid to sit around. even though they are permitted to take breaks.

so that is the key? best rates before the changeover?

kinda meh over here; was ripping very early but rather light for the last 45 mins or so. gonna need to pick up the pace considerably to make it to 6. most mets calling for 8-12 here, we'll see. bitter cold out; managed to get my walk in the mall; just me, the guard, the cleaners, a couple cops hanging out under the parking deck, and a few homeless taking shelter in the mall, with no one giving them any grief on a day like this. i'd say about 3 and change otg so far; roads are empty so easy drive and not too bad at all. visibility was excellent.

mt holly not as bullish as they were ; dropped amounts 2-4 and believe south of 95 switches to rain; sleet up to i 80, then they admit warm layer isn't that deep and could be overcome by intense snows....something we have tended to discount.....

it is bitter out. just moved the cars off the street as the town requires in snow, put wipers up....i busted one last storm. flipped them on by instinct and cursed myself immediately. filled gas tank for blower and the tank had a leak, now i have to get the smell out of the car somehow. going great so far....i do have an arsenal of boots and gloves though. had to dust some stuff off...
