Just wow at snow totals in NE this morning. 26-30” totals showing up from eastern Long Island into rhode island with providence approaching its all time record. They still have hours to go! I think 35” is doable in places up there 

I hope they break all kinds of records up there. As a snow weenie this is awesome to watch.

Yep I don’t care where you are these powerhouse nor Easter’s are fascinating and must see viewing. This is the rare one that shows Mother Natures max potential for winter storms on the east coast. Sub 970 low with 4”+ per hour rates and gusts recorded on coast approaching 90 with multiple major cities reporting blizzard conditions simultaneously. This is going to be one of the benchmark east coast events

Down to 966. 41 mb drop in 24 hours… I mean just wow

966 is amazing.  Check this out.  Tells you all you need to know.

March 93 was 960. This one is entering rare territory as it continues to deepen

One other thing while I nerd out over this system- some areas north of 20” have seen ratios around 8:1. There is A LOT of beef to what’s fallen so far. It is insanely hard to get these amounts with any storm much less one with poor ratios like this one. That has to be mashed potatoes up there

~1.65” of liquid equivalent has fallen at NYC/C Park as of 11AM and it was still coming down! This storm is nearly beyond description.

This is snow deserving gold medal status at NYC as it is their biggest snow in a decade. More snow has fallen there since yesterday than even some of the Olympic ski areas this entire month!

And the euro didn’t even have the storm 3 days out. It didn’t start getting a clue until 12z on 2/20. GFS was on an island by itself and barely wavered for a week! Second biggest American victory this week

Ill second that by saying the Euro at most had us getting maybe an inch of snow across the mountains and the gfs was painting a different story. Well we've had anywhere from an inch to 7 plus inches of snow and I've had snow falling now for 19 hours straight and 6 inches on the ground.  The Euro missed this badly.

The Euro holds weight but its not the king in my opinion.

Providence with 32.6” smashes their old record of 28” and is still under the death band. They will be close to 40” by the time this winds down this evening
