Early Monday morning 2/16 last minute event OBS/Discussion

[MattMal88]

35f rain/snow mix in NE Philly. More flakes than rain drops. If the rates can pick up we should flip to all snow. Temps gone down 2 degrees since I got home from work at 730.

Any obs out of Philly?

[Mikeymac5306]

Roads slowly whitening in Exton. 33 degrees. 

Got to admit I laughed pretty hard when I saw a thread for this last night. Thought it would be all rain, or white rain not amounting to much.

[Chadzachadam]

34 degrees all snow in NW Philly. Not much stickage yet other than on the cars

[KamuSnow]

Mostly snow here now, 35F. Not expecting much, as the back edge is approaching, but got to see it snow before our warmup/meltoff this coming week. It's been an awesome 4 week stretch of winter!

[systemfreeze64]

Been mostly snow here for a few hours now, the untreated surfaces have a coating and the snowpack might have like a half inch on top of it. The salted/treated surfaces are just wet still (Allentown PA) 

[ChescoWx]

I just reported 0.8" to the NWS of snow so far tonight here at EN Township still moderate snow with a temp at 31.4 degrees

 

[KamuSnow]

Nice fat flakes at the moment, 35F.

[RedSky]

Light snow and 30F

1" finally snow on snow

Radar says several hours to go 

[MJO812]

Gfs has a hecs next weekend

[LVblizzard]

About an inch here? I think? Can't really tell because pavement measurements aren't super reliable with this type of storm, and every other surface is still covered in snow.

Still snowing lightly, I don't think we'll get to 2 inches.

This.  I'm doing my measurements on top of the hard, crusty snow.  

[RU848789]

As of 12:00 am, it's now slightly below 32F (31.8F) and snowing moderately with 0.7" on the ground (on the snow); we have about 0.3-0.4" on other surfaces and a coating on all untreated paved surfaces, so things are getting slick. Radar still looks good for awhile, so I'm thinking 2" is attainable by 4 am when things are supposed to wind down.
