[Tin]

The radar looks like some 1-2" per hour snow across Long Island and even heavier south. Can't wait to see the results of this tomorrow and this weekend.

big flakes flying around in the city. lots of it too. can't tell how many inches but by the time it's done, it'll a quite a bit (minus whatever got washed away when it change to rain, that is)

Love it, boss called at 7am saying she was going into the office because "there was no snow". An hour later she calls and says don't go in because of the snow and Providence is a parking lot. I'm considering sending her a "Radar for Dummies" video from Youtube, third time she has done this. Worst case....ski the rest of the winter, file for unemployment, and enjoy the summer off until school starts.

Eating at DD NOW then driving to Mountain Creek about 3 inches down in Mid Hudson Valley of NY. Love these threads.

Very heavy snow falling in mid Westchester county over an inch an hour for sure. Can't wait Tull thus band hits the Greens!

Let the crank calling start!

Coming down pretty good here. Not really supposed to take off until around noon.

Still somewhat lite snow here in Southern NH (at work in Merrimack) at this moment.

Here's a few maps that The Weather Channel was showing earlier.

View attachment 11113

That map is horrendous (beyond the phoney storm name). It's 9:45am here, snow wont end until late tonight, and they're already only an inch away from busting low.

 

[jrmagic]

I paid a little more attention and have over an inch in the past 30 minutes

 

[BenedictGomez]

It's snowing at rates of 3" to 6" per hour in parts of Long Island right now according to NWS.

AS OF 9 AM...A BAND OF VERY HEAVY SNOW WITH SNOWFALL RATES OF 3 TO
6 INCHES PER HOUR HAS OVERSPREAD COASTAL PORTIONS OF THE
REGION...COLLOCATED WITH AN INTENSE FRONTOGENETIC BAND LIFTING
NORTH FROM CENTRAL NJ AND OFF THE OCEAN. REPORTS OF 3 TO 4 INCHES
IN 30 MINUTES HAVE BEEN COMING INTO THE OFFICE UNDER THIS BAND.

The Weather Channel has become unwatchable. Thanks to threads like these I can get my weather fix elsewhere.

Too bad we can't forecast months in advance. The AZ summit at the Loaf woul dhave been off the hook this weekend.

This storm will open up almost everything, if not everything, across the northeast. going to be a february to remember.

 

[Abominable]

Absolutely dumping in Brooklyn. Winter wonderland! 7" in Central Park at 9 a.m. and giant flakes coming down. Love it!

 

[Nick]

I'm in central MA and probably only 1 - 2" on the ground so far.

 

[Tin]

About 2" here right now and really starting to pick up. The heavy bands are finally making their way up and at the coast now. Rain/Snow line still looks 30-40 miles south of Block Island but pushing up the Cape, interesting set up. The temp has dropped here this morning from 31* down to 28*.

 

[lerops]

About 6 inches around NY/CT border close to Merritt. Coming down really hard.
