GlobeTrekker Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 6 minutes ago, boxingdayblizzard said: 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 measured 24” in Hoboken earlier trying to avoid any areas of drift, so I believe it. Theres been a nearly stationary band over the area for many hours..hopefully it was also over CPK! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And therein lies the problem with these large storms. Exactly what happend in 1996 and Boxing Day. They seem on top of this one though so hopefully the final counts it.

cleetussnow Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 19 minutes ago, Freezing Drizzle said: That is one persistent band over the Five Boroughs! 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. yeah in that up here too. As heavy as I've seen so far. going to hit 2 feet OTG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooralph Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 For those reflexively crapping on the CPK measurement, I just did another 20 minute walk in Riverside Park and it very much feels like a 17-19" storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dWave Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 10 minutes ago, Winterweatherlover said: 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. A snow hole at times as you get close to the Sound, and across it into Northern Nassau. 'Hole" is relative cause over a foot is still a lot of snow, but yeah historic level snow is just to the west, NW, and south. Getting a burst right now though with stronger winds, looks like it could drop a quick inch or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
