Light non accumulating snow since around noon. About 5:00 snow is starting to lay. 28°.

Starting to lay on hard surfaces. Just a dusting, but steady light snow for the last 20 minutes or so.

Seeing reports of 4"+ with heavy snow still falling in central VA. What a great surprise for them today.

Got a 1/4” in pickle town. Nice, steady snow. Sirens in the background

Cars caved but that was about it but a beautiful afternoon.

.3” here with neighborhood roads all completely covered. I love these events where the snow falls very lightly for hours upon hours in a cold airmass and eventually overtakes everything. All to add a few tenths to the books ha. Love it.

I just got to Palmyra for my daughter’s indoor softball league game & the main roads appeared to be fine, however, there was a major accident on the west bound side of 322 outside of Harrisburg towards Hummelstown. There was a tractor trailer on its side. There were police & fire trucks on the scene & responding. I will likely be taking a different route home, because I imagine it will take awhile to clear that area.

if you are venturing out, please be careful. Roads are getting slick!

Light snow actively was falling the entire way between Marysville & Palmyra.

Light snow & 23 currently in Palmyra.

Looks like snow reinforcements are on the way, per radar.

You got wayyy more (very relative, I realize )than I did. Nothing is covered here other. Just a trace on car window trim.

Here in Carlisle, just before 7:30pm...it continues to snow lightly with mostly fine flakes mixed with some larger ones as well.  It's been snowing steadily for the past 4 hours or so.  Everything is coated in white...including my main street (which is a cul-de-sac).  I just took a measurement from my board, and I'm just about up to 0.4".  It even continues to snow when the radar has no echoes directly overhead.  So, it's better than it seems.  Oh, I almost forgot...the temperature is currently 25.3 degrees F with a dew point of 22.  I had pretty much given up on today when I got up this morning.  So, it's been a bit of a nice surprise to have the flakes falling again.

Wow that’s crazy, everything white here. As @anotherman mentioned looks like we have another batch moving our way. Perhaps a squall from the front in the cards.
