Snow has now stopped here in Northern Jersey

Right after the company sent a note out closing the building

**DJAK** · Mar 8, 2005, 3:47 PM

heavy snow in MWV at 4 pm. about 4" with another 4-6" on the way.

We got a lot of rain and wind last night at Sugarbush.

It has been snowing since this morning, but we need a LOT more!

how much snow did sugarbush get so far

awf170 · Mar 8, 2005, 7:05 PM

i cant believe how hard it is snowing now in lynn, it looks worse out(or skiers perspective better) then the blizzard of 05 when we picked up three ft!

Skied Bolton today. There was about six inches of fresh on the ground when I took off at 2:30.

Unfortunately the rain from the previous night really froze things up underneath the fresh. So, the conditions really weren't all that great.

Tomorrow should be decent with the additional snow and provided that the winds aren't as bad as forecasted.

It has been snowing all day here in the MRV, and sometimes it has looked like an absolute blizzard. But oddly, we have less accumulation than I would have thought. A lot of the snowy conditions have just been the wind blowing it around.

I'm not sure, but I think I've shoveled about 5 inches at most. Twelve hours of snowing, I would have thought we'd have more. It will be interesting to see what the mountains received. It wouldn't surprise me if they'd received quite a bit more.

If we did, it's gone missing.

My car was covered when I got in. Now the right side is caked, but there is nothing on top of her.

in salem, it's blowing about as hard as i have felt it in a long long time. just came in from hitting the laundromat... was originally going to the grochery store too but forget that! the roads are about as bad as they get! the frozen precip before the snow started really made things a total mess. i barely got up the hill to my drive way. total accumulation is only a few inches with tons of blowing... but it feels brutal out there regardless of accumulation!

I would guess we wound up with about 5". The wind is still whipping it around tonight though. It's brutal out there, but I love it!
