My folks in Highland Mills are telling me 12-15" in their backyard. Crazy to think that Chester is a legit 15 min drive east for me and about a 10" difference! 

Chester is 8 miles from me as the crow flies and Highland Mills is 12 miles. This reminds me of 2006 but thankfully not 2016

I can confirm 14 inches in Highland Mills and it is ripping again the last 15 minutes. Maybe gets us to 15 inches.

Were you out there for Boxing Day 2010? Wondering what out there got. I was 18" or so for that one. 

Yeah I got 12" here for Boxing Day. Amounts doubled once you got to the eastern side of the county. These wound up systems that move E off the Delmarva dont like us too much out this way.

Tough to measure, I got between 4" to waist deep. For the most part it was knee deep when I came in a half hour ago. I've been under that band, right where it crosses the cone of death, for hours and it's insane. 2-3"/hr being blown every which way, everything is coated an inch thick but trees and branches are blown clean.

Yeah, as @snywxwas saying, we knew this wasn’t our storm, glad those to the SE are getting crushed. I’m good with my 5.5” here, similar to 2006 for me. 

Good morning Rob/everyone. Well as of 8am my old man’s stick is almost halfway there. Some neighbors down the block honored the blizzard of 26 with a giant snow couple. Shoveled the first foot plus starting at 6am. Will wait till it ends before the secon shift.

I see a 6" was reported in Goshen at 1015a. Those 10"+ plus amounts were prob just east of there. Not exactly 2016 but pretty impressive in terms of cutoff. In 2016 I remember Minisink closing schools because the southern part of the school district near unionville & pine island receiving 12"+ amounts while those in Otisville & Mount Hope had T-1". Now thats a cut off!

7 inches here. Wonder what Highland Lakes got as they can double what I get since I am in the valley. RGEM I felt did the best for up here showing the cutoff earlier than HRRR and NAM but I know it underperformed pretty badly for SE folks.

The RGEM never wavered up here! That should have been a red flag

Agreed. I did not want it to be true even though I knew it probably was. Oh well now that I am in cleanup phase, not complaining like I was last night. More worried honestly about the drought up this way. Want any percip we can get. The latest drought monitor has basically Sussex as the only county in the NE under Extreme drought. You are basically in same boat. Need a wet spring.

Holeee shit this just won't let up. I shoveled 1/3 of the driveway earlier and now it's filled back in completely. The only reason you can tell I did anything is 40 feet of 7 foot high banks. It's back to shin>knee deep where I shoveled. At least the town plow hasn't been here since ~3am so the plow pile hasn't gotten any bigger :ph34r:
