Good tip, I just tried that and you're right. I actually do most of my Americanwx browsing on my phone but I usually look at it vertically except when I'm watching videos.

As an aside, snow finally starting to stick in Whitestone now that the rates are picking up a bit.

As somebody that grew up on the beach in Wading River, if there is one thing I hate, it is the East End in winter. Desolate, windy, snowless. It is truly awful in every way 

Maybe if you had some shelter when growing up you wouldn't be so jaded.

struggling to get another inch' its just not coming down hard enough here. its mostly mood snow. yesterday's event was more substantial out here. 

[Krs4Lfe]

Moderate snow here, not great snow growth. Best dynamics are south and east. Jersey shore and east end will end up with more than us. Should be over at 9 PM. Doubt we get more than 2”. At least we had a positive bust yesterday to offset this one

Back edge rapidly heading into West NJ. Heavy snow just south of NYC but doesn’t want to push up.

Parts of Lehigh Valley 8-9" 2 day total

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.

 

Snow picked back up again finally around 4 pm and we got 1/4" by 5 pm and now at 6 pm it's snowing heavily (see tweet below) with 1.0" new snow on the ground in round 2, bringing today's total to 2.7". Should easily get to 3.5-4" I think. 31F - and make sure you shovel tonight, because everything will freeze solid if you don't overnight with wet snow and lows around 20F (and Thursday may be the only day above 32F this week and even next week).

Legit snow rates now. Thankfully it’s lighter than this morning for shoveling purposes.

The back edge has moved about 12 miles in 45 mins, lets not exaggerate too much.
