had this storm hit in Jan with the cold air we have it would be on the ground for weeks.   Big difference b/w 1/14 and 3/14

That 30"+ max could have been closer to our area if we got a decent -AO to work with like January 2016.

These maps never accurately depict most storms IMO. Case in point almost every reporting station in Orange, Ulster and Dutchess reported 20-26 inches of snow, you would never know that looking at their maps.

I mainly use the NWS reports following snowstorms for the exact amounts. But those maps are good for showing you where the storm jackpot was located.

Surprised this won't be called a KU near-miss storm. The lack of blocking definitely helped the coast hugger track. 

We got our 30" storm last January so it was time to spread the wealth with our neighbors to the north. From the 70's to 90's we were happy just to get any decent snowstorms. Now it's a disappointment if you miss the 30" jackpots that have become more frequent during the 2010's.

I think the map below is much more indicative of what actually fell. The NOAA map from a few posts up isn't very accurate IMO. Funny how the two can differ several inches in spots from the same storm.
