Mesoscale Discussion 0166
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0355 AM CST Thu Feb 09 2017

   Areas affected...Eastern Pennsylvania into southern New England

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 090955Z - 091600Z

   SUMMARY...Snow will increase in intensity as it develops eastward
   across the region with the heaviest rates over 2"/hr from late
   morning into the afternoon. Areas currently experiencing rain from
   New Jersey towards Long Island will turn to heavy snow before noon.
   Snow rates are likely to become even heavier after noon across
   southern New England.

   DISCUSSION...A large area of precipitation persists this morning
   with heavy snow extending across eastern PA and southeast NY. The
   rain/snow line as of 4 AM local time extended from just northwest of
   the Philadelphia area across northern New Jersey to just north of
   Long Island. 

   Moisture and lift will continue to increase across the region as a
   surface low deepens to the south and shifts northeastward. Extreme
   lift and plenty of moisture in the favorable dendritic growth zone
   will maximize heavy snow potential. Any rain should change to all
   snow by early afternoon with 1-2"/hr rates common. Beyond 10 AM and
   east of the MCD area, rates may increase to 3-4"/hr across southern
   New England including the Boston vicinity, peaking between noon and
   4 PM.

Holy cow, that was like flipping a switch... not a flake to be seen and then it just started puking/nuking/ripping out of nowhere. Awesome.

Yep same here. Car not even covered at 4:40, over an inch in less than an hour.

Well, it's taking longer to change from sleet to snow than I thought it would.  Mix of snow and sleet with maybe 1/2" of mostly sleet on the ground.  32F.  

Finally all snow and all paved surfaces covered and it's coming down pretty good.  32F.  Time for a measurement...
