Yeah, even with crappy winters the Poconos always produces something, especially above 2k. It wasn’t the worst winter I’ve seen, but sure wasn’t the best lol.
-
Yeah, last weekend wasn’t as much here, I believe I ended up with around 6”. With this system, it will put my seasonal total right around 40” give or take. Nice to see these late season storms however; it’s a far cry from the 60 to 70” average around these parts of the Poconos lol.

There’s a sharp cutoff to the south from the bands pivoting in from the north/ northeast now. Pike and Wayne county, (where I’m located in the northern Poconos) have been snowing non stop all am. Checking cameras, anything south of Mt. Pocono, 30 min south of me; simply doesn’t seem to be producing anything lol. I’m eyeballing an easy 6” here in my Part of the Poconos, on the north western portion of the Pocono Plateau. Keep in mind, my elevation is really helping with this setup being I’m just under 2,100’. Anyone below 1,000’ has pretty much nothing, especially to the south/ southwest. I’ve cleaned the driveway two times already. Here’s a current photo:

Absolute crazy weather day. Left for work at 6 am to rain and 46 degrees, currently 3 below zero and winds gusting 40 to 50mph here on the Pocono Plateau. Flash freeze wasn’t as bad as advertised luckily, Penndot had a good handle on salting the heck out of the roads prior to the freeze up. Secondary roads a bit slick though. Fresh coating of snow today post front, and I somehow managed to salvage my snow pack with a minor refresher. Definitely a white Christmas here in the higher elevations of the Poconos, that’s for sure.

12/15 - 12/16 Coastal/Winter Storm & Observations

Going to say 7.0” total here from last night in my part of the Poconos, Newfoundland, Wayne county. Elevation 2,075’ feet. I’m 30 minutes N/Nw of Mt Pocono, and around 200 to 300 feet higher in elevation than them. So their 7.4” total seems accurate. It’s extremely hard to measure this stuff after it compacted and turned to sleet/freezing rain late last night. It’s now snowing moderately on the back end and I have already received an additional inch. So going with a storm total of 8.0” so far, and maybe another couple hours to go. Not a bad early season storm! -

Moderate snow falling, and it’s becoming very windy. Event total so far is 5.0” here in my part of the Poconos. Temp is 30 degrees. -

Started as a Sleet/Snow mix here in the Poconos around noon. It has now primarily gone over to just snow, moderate to heavy at that. Temp is holding steady in the upper 20’s. Its going to be an interesting event here above 2k, Binghamton NWS warning is for 6 to 14 inches for my area, with a tenth of an inch of ice. Winds tonight gusting upwards to 40mph here on the Plateau. Glad I got out of work and I’m home early, roads are going to become a mess in a hurry. -

Poconos, Nw Nj, Hudson Valley classic crusher! -
Nice first wintry event for November here in the Poconos. I was actually shocked at how nasty some of the roads were heading home from work. Completely snow/ice covered, even the highways. Just cleaned up, picked up about 2.5” here at 2,075 feet. It has since changed to sleet/rain mix now. Temp is right around 31 degrees so that may actually be freezing rain at these elevations.
-
Yes, Bradford and Susquehanna counties right along the northern tier of Pa, just south of Binghamton Ny, reported anywhere from 12 to 16” in the higher elevations. I just drove through the area this am, and there was still 6 to 8 inches on the ground roughly, that was since compacting and melting a bit. Your area in the Poconos faired a bit better, here in the northern Poconos in Wayne county, I only reported 3” just under 2,100’ feet. Warm sector turned me over to sleet and even plain rain a good portion of the night. Western Catskills at elevation got a nice hit as well. There is still folks without power in the southern tier and Central Ny.
-
Awesome storm for the twin tiers for sure!
-
Got shafted even here in the far western Poconos, warm air aloft changed me over to sleet and even rain for most of the night. We are back to light snow now. Received about 3 inches of snow. Totals in far northern Pa near the Ny/Pa twin borders are in the 8 to 12 inch range at elevation.
-
My house currently in Newfoundland Pa, elevation 2,075’. I’m located on the Nw side of the Pocono Plateau. Roughly one inch so far, and light to moderate snow, temp is 32 degrees. 18z Rgem, Gfs, and some other short range guidance hammer my area with up to 12”inches overnight. I guess we will see how it looks in the am. Roads up here are already a mess.

Snowing real good here in the Poconos, temp has crashed near 32 degrees and sticking to everything. Roads are a mess here above 2k.
-
Nice snowy morning here in the Poconos. Nothing is sticking to the roads, only the grass and colder surfaces. Temperature right around 32 degrees here at 2,075’.
-
Last batch has now cleared the Poconos, received an additional 1.5 to 2” inches since a few hours ago. Everything is cleaned up outside, and final total is 8.0” here in the Poconos. Largest storm of the season lol. Winds are howling and temps have continued to crash, now at 14 degrees. Forecast low is 8.
-
7.0” inches here in the Poconos and snowing lightly, radar is really falling apart. It’s about wrapped up out here.
-
Clean up number one complete, going to say 6.0” so far and snowing moderately. Im not very impressed with the rates here, but overall great storm. It’s a cold March storm!
-
20 degrees, moderate snow and eyeballing 3 to 4.0” inches on the deck so far. I can’t believe how cold it got already here. Pure powder here.

Awesome little event here in the Poconos above 2k. 6.0” on grass and deck, a bit less on paved surfaces. Picture was taken one hour ago, tacked on a bit more since then. This was truly an elevated event out here, anyone under 1k in the valley received an inch of slush tops.
-
Didn’t even manage one flake here in the Poconos it looks. I heard sleet banging the windows from the getgo. I’m actually ready for spring, and to leave this season in the rear view lol.
-
You can say that again, I’m on the Pocono Plateau at an elevation of 2,075’ where I average right around 70.0”. I don’t even think I have 20.0” for the season lol. Downright embarrassing winter for snow lovers. I know winter isn’t over, and we can easily get snow well into April. However, in a matter of weeks it’s a wrap. I can’t see making up any substantial ground. I guess you win some, you lose some.

Goose egg here above 2k, -5 lower elevations surrounding my area.
