I thought I saw that too but I was like this doesnt seem a very dynamic situation upstairs. Maybe it is. Nice

2.5" so far today. Its like the jelly of the month club...this is the gift that just keeps on giving. Will be approaching 20" on the season by end of the night. Winter of yore!

Up to a half inch in Medford, maybe we can still catch up to Philly and make it worth the trip to the in-laws’ house

Lol, do they have a snow light?

[Lady Di]

Loving it.  Two days in a row!!  Light but blowing snow down here. Cleaned the walk and car earlier.  Both covered again.

Coming down at a pretty good clip right now. Temp hovering around freezing. Bristol Road caved again. Rough guess 3/4"/hr rate.

Its like time traveling back to my youth. I will be disappointed if we get another good pattern  (Jan 24-Feb 3ish) that doesnt produce. But thus far we have had a solid season. Chances are, we arent done yet.

Different scale, but I'd have to count Feb. 5th and 9th in 2010 in that category. But it sure is nice to just wallow in snow appreciation, that's where I am. Awesome!

[BBasile]

1.3" of snow now.  Looking great out there.

That winter tortured me with suppression 

[Kevin Reilly]

27f moderate snow 2.2” additional now.

15.2” on year now. 
 

That 5.1” two day total on the Euro on Saturday morning may be correct for this location.

Trash night, first time I left the couch today. Easily 2”, probably a little more — that was 1/2 hour ago and it’s ripping good. Getting gusty, too.

These last two days remind me of the winters of my youth. No HECS, just reliable 3-4 inchers that got you to seasonal average once you add them all up.

Yeah, sorry, lol. (But for real)

[Ralph Wiggum]

Typo'd earlier...now up to 3.25" on the day. Still coming down. Snowman inflatable caved under the weight of the snow....hes down.

[ChescoWx]

Not sure many folks here in the western burbs of philly had 8.5" of snow on their bingo card for this weekend. But with our at 7pm 2.0" additional snow here in East Nantmeal that is indeed where we are at. It is still snowing lightly here at 7pm with the temp down to 25.2 degrees. The seasonal snowfall is now at 21.2" which is double our normal snowfall through today here in Chesco. We average in a typical winter season only 36.0" of snow.

Looking forward that bohemian high crushes all our hopes for next weekend for now. 

[The Iceman]

2.3” tonight, 4.3” on the day. 6.3” this weekend. Not too shabby! 

[Newman]

1.5" from round 2 in Fleetwood

3.625" on the day

8.2" for the weekend

16.625" on the year, which is ~2 weeks ahead of normal (first week of Feb)

 

[Ralph Wiggum]

Finally pulling away. Looks like 4" on the nose for today. The last hour was the heaviest of the day close to 1"/hr rates. Very light pixie dust now. 27F. Now we turn our eyes to the late week threat. 

Eta: 4" yesterday + 4" today for an 8" snowfall weekend brings Ivyland to 19.9" for the season.

[Tatamy]

4.2” total for today.  8.4” total for the weekend.  I received 2” tonight which I was definitely not expecting.

[jaswx]

In Blue Bell 3” yesterday, 1.8” first round today 1.5” second round today. Total for the weekend 6.3”. Seasonal total so far 18.3”.

[BBasile]

Ended up with 2.1".  

[Chadzachadam]

Just under 2” in Medford, I’m guessing around 3” back home based on pictures and other reports

[soadforecasterx]

Must of missed all the good stuff here in west grove. 2" yesterday, 1" this morning and 1" from the coastal. 

 

@ChescoWxwhat camera is that?

 

I've been looking for a high quality outdoor camera.
