You're welcome - glad the info was helpful.  I'm kind of a nut about measuring accurately.

Wonder if any of our board members near the park are willing to make “alternative” measurements for future snowfalls. I think someone has in the past. 

That would be great if there was someone.
 

I had a friend on another weather forum who lived near the park several years ago. He used to to take measurements himself and 90% of the time they were under measured.  Often by 20-30% similar to the storm we just had.

Same that's why i recorded 2.9 here because that's exactly what it was. I'd love to say 3" and call it a day. Almost everyone at my latitude broke 3" or more except probably New London county. I have a nice ruler that's divided in 1/10ths of inch for measuring snow. If I'm going to be making all these snowfall maps and determining which reports are valid and which ones are not, i should be holding myself to a high standard.

What in the world is that 9.7" in Monmouth county? I didn't see anything over 9" anywhere in cocorahs coop or the PNS by PHI.
