Rhode Island and East Mass will do well with this one regardless. Most in NYC metro have under an inch so far, so this would verify on the low end of the regionwide 3-5" winter weather advisory.

I think the WWA was for 2 to 4.

What is the CPK measurement so far?

[winterwx21]

2 inches here from round one this morning. A nice two part event where we should get another 2 inches during the afternoon and evening. Maybe 3 if we're lucky to make it 5 inches for today. We got the 2 yesterday so this is turning out to be quite a weekend with a few different rounds of snow. 

[Snowman92]

Has been a consistent light snow still going here. About 30-31 degrees. Got 3" over here already. Combined 2 days so far is about 6".

 

We will see what round 2 brings.

In a dry slot.  Hasn't been snowing for a few hours.  Looking at radar it almost looks over.

The one on 110 is excellent. Can get lost in that store 

I purposely stay away other then for an occasion because I buy half the store and weigh 5 pounds more a week later haha.

This was well forecast. Light snow picking back up here

[psv88]

If we got 1” already and the forecast is for a total of 3-5”, then it makes sense models are showing another 2.5 -3”. 

[GregRups21]

Moderate snow here Montvale NJ. We’ll see what round two brings

This “lull” or dryslot isnt dryslotting. Just finished shoveling and the entire driveway is covered again in 5 mins. Radar isnt picking it up.

[mob1]

Snow picking up here again 

[BoulderWX]

Light snow again, don’t care about additional accumulation, it’s beautiful out. 

[Stormlover74]

Bordering on moderate snow again

[psv88]

Light snow now as the precip builds from the east almost. 33 so won’t stick to roads 

[MJO812]

Drizzle here

[winterwarlock]

1.5 inches from first batch and snow shut off about 90 minutes ago. We shall see what comes later..a bit skeptical

Four photos from this morning:

Radar filling in over the northern half of NJ with northeast movement towards NYC

Very little to speak of here.  Temp stubbornly mid 30s and the slushy ~0.5" that accumulated when it was a bit heavier is sliding off the cars etc.  Just 3-4 miles north where I was this morning though different story.  Probably between 1.5 and 2", accumulated on most surfaces other than roads,  and was coming down good for awhile.  Was drizzly there too as I was headed back here though.

Yup snow picking up here with no echos overhead. Should be a fun afternoon, evening 

[Picard]

We've added 1¼" this morning, making the two day total 5¼".  The snows have been mostly light today - and the light snow continues.  We'll see what later brings, but it's been a perfect snowy weekend so far.

Snow picking back up here in Great Neck, football food and snow coming up with a day off tomorrow

1.3 inches here as of 9:30. I didn't think it was accumulating either but the 26° temperatures and the constant light snow doing it's thing, 6.1 inches now for the weekend.

Remember for those of us that had snow yesterday, it's not depth today it's what you accumulate today. I know it sounds silly to remind people but the "official" rules for measuring seem to change every other year.

A bit over 2" now. Flakes are tiny but still coming down nicely and accumulating. It's a dense mat that's deceptively difficult to scrape and it's pretty heavy. Yay

[RU848789]

Just started snowing moderately, so I looked at the radar and saw this! Nice surprise decent band over us. Main 2nd round still arrives after 2-3 pm, but snow like this will at least reduce compaction/melting loss.

 

[mob1]

Snow continues to pick up in intensity with a temperature of 33 degrees. Radar looks good. 

[EastonSN+]

Dollars to donuts CPK waits for the first round to melt and compact before measuring lol.

I’m in Italy right now and not quite as good but close second. They put a lot of effort into it there (Uncle Giuseppe’s)

That's a good trade-off, even with the snow.  As the owl says, "divertiti"!

Slept in and missed the first round. Ewall radar had all snow for NYC, but I'm guessing it was too warm at the surface for accumulations?

Really? Don't worry. Colder air is seeping in very slowly. Down to 30.8 here, and snow is picking up. It never actually stopped here. Just got real light with tiny flakes for 90 minutes.

They likely got 0.5 to 1 inch but don't think they measured so it would have melted by the time they do.

So in reality 0.5 to 1 inch but they will not count it.
