I just measured 15 minutes ago and I'm up to 2.6" here in Tamaqua. Rates have increased as well.

Currently 38F here in NW Philly and partly cloudy.  High was 42 and the dusting of snow disintegrated about an hour after it stopped snowing this morning.

Nice to see you guys racking it up! Down here it's like watching paint dry waiting for it to move east. By Chesco Paul's account it moved 5 miles in 2 hours earlier. In my weenie mind it seems to be making better progress. Hoping for a few hours of snow here after midnight. High today here was 43F with a lot of partly cloudy. Down to 33F here now.

Radar is finally pushing to the east now. Maybe its right on schedule, but it feels a year late lol

Highest official measurement in PA was taken at 8PM and recorded 2.3" in Lehigh County as per the NWS out of Mount Holly. Hoping you guys up there can eek out another few inches before the coastal starts zapping the frontal moisture.
