NWS responded as follows: “The 0.15" was an automated measurement determined to be erroneous, likely from snowmelt getting into the gauge. A trace of snow was reported by our Park observers after 1 pm, and the storm total for the event is 19.7.”

1.92

I sent an email too. It’s just unacceptable in my opinion but oh well.

Yea CPK is rarely the winner in any storm but for moderate to large ones, it is also very rarely the loser as it sort of "benefits" from both east and west leaning BM storms. That being said, CPK recorded 0.15 of precipitation from 1-4PM, why wasn't that counted as snow? It's things like that which frustrate me.

Would be interesting to see their total precip to compare to CPK.

TF Green Airport (Providence) just reported 37.9 and its still snowing, insane!

See now that's ridiculous. If there was 0.15 inches of precipitation since 1PM (according to their official obs), it should have translated into approx. 1.5". Same thing happened with the January storm.

They definitely should but if they don't frequently measure it would be lost already due to compaction.

Yes I was referring to NYC schools specifically as they don't close nearly as often or for as long duration as suburban schools.

Oh wow a week?! That’s nuts. My memory goes back to the 90s so I didn’t know that!

I can’t remember NYC ever closing schools for two days in a row for snow

No doubt. This winter has included: - a moderate storm in December (~5?) - a significant storm in January (11”) - unrelenting cold that allowed the snowpack to linger for weeks Jan into Feb - a HECS in February (20”) - seasonal total more than 10” above average Clearly an “A” winter

I think one of the NAM runs showed 40 for a few spots in central/coastal NJ.

Per radar, it doesn't seem that CPK/UWS area is under a weenie band but it's still coming down nicely nonetheless. Def possible we hit 20.

Yea it’s been quite heavy especially for the past 90 mins, should be in that range
