Exactly 1 PM for that report so the extra .15 should get CP to about 21 inches. But it's CP so probably gets it to 19.9

Will be interesting to see what they do.

They obviously always sucked at measuring, but I wonder if now that people can bet on snowfall totals (which is pretty dumb IMO) if they'll be sued by some disgruntled gambler who felt cheated and be more on top of it in the future (unlikely, but it adds a different dynamic to it).

No reports from Morris County in  NJ? Weird.

My Uncles driveway in Staten Island

My parents are from there, so any storm we have, the invariable question arises of how much was there in Staten Island.

They have not lived there in over fifty years.

I usually try to give our town plow guys the benefit of the doubt, most of them are way overworked and just want to do their jobs….but this isnt really acceptable when other roads are scraped perfectly clean already.

God bless the bergen plows they were nonstop 6pm to 9am , roads were immaculately clean. Driveways are fucked up a little but you take some bad with the great

Staten Island. The Jersey of New York.

Imagine if the threat after the Jan event worked out too? Whew, we'd be talking about a blockbuster winter.

Had to drop a shovel off to brother-in-law in fort Lee, nj.  They got crushed.

Ended up with 16 in Easton CT.

Today's 23" gives me 52.7" for the season.

Nice! Have slightly less but over 50 as well. Between that and the consistent cold, this has been one of the better winters in recent memory (though that bar is quite low for the last few years).

When I do my stats for winter, this will be in the top 5 for cold .

Re. the Central Park ob and possibility of officially getting to 20+, hopefully OKX has an agreement with the CPK Conservancy folks who do the measuring to take a measurement once the snow fully comes to a stop. The 6 hour board clearing rule doesn't apply when the accumulating snow ends. For FAA contract observer sites, if the arrangement is the same there as it is out here, we call them for the final measurement when confident there's no more accumulation on the way.

Is the CP Conservancy supposed to follow FAA standards or COOP?

...not withstanding that they sometimes seem to follow neither

This will not have the resiliency of the Jan 25-26 snow.

No sleet embedded like many had from January, and temps will be warmer, and definitely a stronger sun now than a month ago.

Although the Jan 25 snow is still there.  This will most likely take us into March with continuous snow cover since January.

We just finished shoveling out and it was a very different experience from the January cold-powder/sleet oxymoron storm.  Today, the bottom of the snow was melted and heavy next to the pavement, but after a little initial melting the moisture remaining after we shoveled froze pretty quickly into a skating rink.  There was no melting or icing of the bottom of the snow pack in the January storm.

FYI, the water equivalent today was very similar to the January storm; 1.9" then vs 1.83" today.

TF Green Airport (Providence) just reported 37.9 and its still snowing, insane!

[lee59]

Just curious how people measure snowfall in a storm where the snow was blowing all over.

[mob1]

Any updates for NYC, JFK, and LGA (all saw snow after their last measurement)?

They all should drop momentarily

See now that's ridiculous. If there was 0.15 inches of precipitation since 1PM (according to their official obs), it should have translated into approx. 1.5". Same thing happened with the January storm.

If they were wiping a board at 6 hour increments, that should have translated to approximately another 1.5".  If not, that most likely did not increase the maximum snow depth.

Thanks! Wonder if Boston can make it to 20, Logan was at 17 or so at 7 pm and they have a nice band over them (mostly east of the city proper now but I believe that's where the airport is).

The zookeeper is really leaving us in suspense

Or Sussex County?

That's because Morris & Sussex are covered by Mt Holly. Go there and you"ll see the totals.

I cant imagine 38”. I measured around 23” here on the north shore of Nassau and moving it around beat the heck out of my atv lol

[BxEngine]

Up to 56” on the season. Combined with 2 15” plus storms, staying power, and christmas that wasnt 70 degrees, this is easily an A winter. Might be a top 5. 

[Boston Bulldog]

Are they just not going to do a 7pm Central Park update?
