A heavy part of that band is hammering the area around Neptune, NJ now; near the border of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Still in moderate snowfall, here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterweatherlover Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 15 minutes ago, dWave said: Hard to measure snow. multiple measurement range from 11" - 18" Around 15" is best estimate. Snow band remains just to the west, and due south. Been in flurries for the last few hours here, but snow starting to pick up some now. That band seems to not want to move east of the Bx River Pkwy so far.. Wild how banding works seems much of the NW Bronx/Yonkers area is over 20 inches even though it’s further from the storm than eastern Bronx. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasiluvsnow Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I Just came in from outside and that was a workout,,,,impossible to measure so later on someone tell me how much New City/ Rockland County received as my best guesstimate would be 15 but I really dunno could be more could be less. Wow as 4 days ago who would have ever thought that we would now have 263 pages and counting of ITS NOT COMING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a storm! Oddly, snowfall has been light the past 10-15 minutes despite the radar looking good (no idea why - supposedly we could get another inch or two, but kind of doubting that). Up to 30F and the winds are now pretty light. Looks like 21.3" from 10 am measurement is my final total, bringing me to 53.0" for the season; snow has already compacted to about 18" as of 12:00 pm when I checked after my final shoveling. My number looks good given the actual snowfall map below which has most of the 95 corridor and the coast in the 18-24" swath. T The GFS ruled among all of the models up until the event, but especially several days out latching on to the big phased snowy storm solution when almost every other model was showing a weak, progressive out-to-sea solution, and then I thought the HRRR did quite well with real-time projections once the event started. And great forecast by the NWS, sticking to their guns with the high predictions that many of us thought were too high and it mostly worked out. Fantastic storm - all snow for a change and just gorgeous to look at if a lot of work to shovel, lol. Two pics to share: first one was right after sunrise showing some of the heaviest snow of the event with about 1/8th of a mile visibility and everything just looks like a snowy moonscape (those big lumps in front are where I shovel to), while the 2nd was from driving around town after the storm and it looks like a snowy tree tunnel. And one weird observation - from about 10 am to noon had what looks like decent snowfall rates, via radar, but have had light flurries at most - no idea why. Anyone? Radar showing snow up high and a dry layer below? Time for a shower, some food and some sleep, but not sure in which order, lol. Pleasure tracking/observing this storm with y'all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just measured, 12 miles directly north of EWR near Clifton, measured 18 inches on pavement and 19-20 on grass. Intersting to me to see EWR so high..hmm Either way, wow, what an incredible storm!

I would assume EWR is doing a clear and measure technique, but also they were in the band for a little longer than us as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
