Still need about 12" here to reach average. 

I think between now and the  next 2 weeks we could make up around half of that. Maybe more if something bigger pops up.

GEPS/EPS have a bit of a hostile period where the SER connects to the block but it does not seem to last long.  GEFS does not have it at all or its briefer.  I think we probably hit or exceed normal snows before its all over though

I’m at 29-30” here and average is low to mid 30s. Confident we get to that number and probably over 40”.

Feb is our snowiest month on average, even in the dead winters the past few years we were able to make something happen in February. And it can definitely snow into March here. In 2018 we had 6” snow the morning of 4/2.

Great 12z suite if you like cold and dry. But models still hinting at a lot of stuff in that 6-14 frame just need something to come together

March 2018 was epic in Suffolk. Nor’easter every weekend. ISP airport recorded 6” in one hour during one of those storms.

Another 8" needed here for average season.  We're ahead of schedule and we have consistent cold.  It will happen.

I think it will too. 2017-2018 winter I received just under 70” thanks to the March nor’easters. Wonder when we see those amounts again

Have reached 20 degrees.
It's quite bearable outside without the wind and bright sun.  The sun angle is already noticeably higher and stronger than 5-6 weeks ago.

66" here that winter.  34" after March 1.

GFS and Euro have light snow for central and southern NJ early Wednesday morning. That's a little something to keep an eye on along with the clipper for the end of the week. No major storms but maybe we can pull off a coating to an inch or two from those potential events.

Yeah the Wednesday threat is pretty much focused on Ohio river valley and mid-atlantic, with a few inches at most. But the clipper around the 7th is consistently showing up on model guidance. Looks like a positively tilted trough for now but if that could back more, we could get something good out of it
