Wherever it is, it is not here in Manhattan.

We're getting very light snow, maybe at an inch every 3 hours rate. Temperatures are around freezing, so stuff melts or sticks, depending on where it lands.

We're nowhere close to any 3" forecast.

No dings on the weather service, their maps told the tale, it is more a reproach to all the people who tried to make this into something it was not.

It was not forecast to get heavy until 6-9 here. Whether we get to 3-5 or not remains to be seen, but up where I am (the low 100s near the Hudson) all side streets are covered. It is sticking and accumulating quickly now.

The storm is not over for you. Relax

Maybe wait until the storm is over.  Then we can talk about what happened or didn't happen.

33/32 here with temps steadily falling. Light snow increasing in rate as we work into a better band - we’ll see what happens. 

Actually didn’t even have much rain here, just a little bit a few hours ago and it turned into a mix / graupel fairly quickly. 

I’ll be satisfied with whatever falls here as  at least we know it’s not going anywhere any time soon, and will look quite a bit nicer than bare ass ground for the upcoming cold.

Been snowing moderately to heavily for the last hour and as of 5:45 pm we're up to 1" at 31F, so 3/4" in the last hour (had about 1/4" all day sadly). Radar looks great and if we can keep up good intensity through maybe 9 pm we might just get to 4".  Big dendrites - very pretty out there.  Just got done shoveling and I would imagine my experience is similar to anyone near or SE of 95 - we had slush underneath, then snow on top and it was a bit of work to get the bottom layer up - but it'll be impossible by late tonight, I think.  So shovel.

? I’m in the UWS and it’s sticking everywhere. Still plenty of time.

We have been very lucky the past year or two relative to NYC and others in CNJ, so I guess we were due to miss some good bands sooner or later.  

Getting 2-3 in  a regular storm isn't so bad; getting 3 when a lot of the area has a foot has happened more than I care to think about.
