We got about 1/2" from that good band over the last hour or so and we're up to 1.7" as of about 1:15 am.  Still snowing despite the radar looking weak; the short range models also don't show much after 2 am, so I might actually get some sleep.  Not sure we'll make 2.0".  

I measured 1.6" here. The snow on the back end of this storm prevented it from being a complete disaster, but still a pretty big bust. I thought we'd get at least 4 from this event. Pretty bad that it's a mighty struggle just to get to 2. I see the backbuilding on radar, but it's only very light snow. Definitely time for sleep.

The Central Park 1am measurement of 2.3 inches appears in line with the surrounding area for a change. Maybe enough people complained, however from experience, it rarely lasts.

We did it!

Radar returns have moved east of Morris County, but it's still snowing steadily. Looks a bit like an inverted trof. I suspect it's low level stuff below the radar beam. Let's keep it going a few more hours!

Use jfk or ewr plenty of snow left

yup, still light-mod snow here, measured 2.4” 10 mins ago… very happy to end up getting close to 3” when all is said and done given how the event began

Just finished shoveling and it looks like the storm is done, so unless something happens overnight, my final measurement is 1.8", as we got about 0.1" the last hour.  Not as bad as it was looking at 10 pm, but still a pretty significant bust when we were under a winter storm warning for 4-7", my hourly forecast gave me 5.7" this morning, and the average model snowfall was about 5.5" (over 10 models) - and my prediction was 6.1" (oof).  Of course it's way better than the rain and 60F it was looking like 10 days ago, but still disappointing.  Pretty snowfall, though, and loved having temps in the 20s for most of it.  Feels like winter.  Brings me to a healthy 9.6" for December, my most since we got 10.3" in Dec 2017.

We had 2.2 before the final bands came thru..3.6 down and still snowing lightly.

can report a similar story in Rockaway- NJ.. the attached radar loop shows what almost looks like a thumb of echoes moving Northwest within the overall echoes (Norlan trof?) …this is on a 0.5 degree tilt

Great to hear from you Walt. We needed your input on this event for the last few days. Hope you had a great Christmas. And you and all your family is well.

Just can't do both my FB group and here.  Merry Christmas.  It's a good snow sleet combo here in SC.
