I'm expecting the heaviest (moderate/borderline heavy) snowfall rates from this storm between 4-8am. That's about a half to one inch/hour for 4 hours. And it adds up in most places to 2-5". At this point I think there'll be alot of 2 and 3" amounts a few 4s and a few 5s. The duration of light/wet snow losing an inch or two of what could have been. The dynamics are poor but I think there'll improve slightly as we get on into the morning.

There might some good rates later,the radar is lighting up to our sw. Some added moisture from the gulf is helping rn.

Light snow here in Bayside. Looks light and fluffy. Nice to see winter storm warnings posted to our west. We won’t get one here, just wondering how much qpf was lost to white rain in the beginning

After a nice nap, at 3:00 am we're up to 1.6" and snowing moderately at 32F and I just finished my first round of shoveling. Needless to say, it's gorgeous out there, especially with light wind and the snow sticking nicely to all of the trees. What I shoveled was fairly wet, but what is falling now are much drier dendrites of a higher snow to liquid ratio, I'm sure.

At 4:00 am up to 2.3" at 32F so 0.7" the last hour and it's snowing close to heavily with beautiful 3/8" dendrites.  Thinking we'll come close to my 5.0" forecast, but not sure if we'll make the 6" warning criterion. 

4-5" looks spot on right now. South Central Jersey will get the enhanced rates for a longer period. Some 6-8" amounts likely there.
