Deer park 10"...Snowing moderatley.

The wind is blowing so hard, and the snow is falling so fast, that I can hardly see out the window. I tried to take a picture, but the camera does not do it justice. This is amazing!

by **jmanley32** Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:07 pm

Not liking that dry slot opening up over LI sound, looks like snow may stop for a bit here, unless it fills in.

They just said outdoor elevated subways will be shutdown starting at 2 pm

There's my 8.1" on there! lol

Definitely getting to near whiteout conditions. Visibility less than a football field now. The tree line behind the parked cars is a about 150 feet away and that Clubhouse gazebo is about 120 feet.

We are going to be snowing at 2 to 3" an hour for the next two hours at lesdt. Probably 15" by 2 pm

Mugs how much snow on the ground by you ? Here in North Caldwell measured 13in and it’s ripping

by **heehaw453** Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:21 pm

I will do some measurements within an hour. Don't want to speculate at this point but it's a lot.

nice, i thought it looked on radar like theres a gap between those 2 bands coming off LI into the area but maybe I am wrong. Yes 2016 def, who knows might rival that! And looking at currrent totals prolly going to. NAM is prolly not far off in fact some areas may have been underdone.

Wonder if the car on the right is going anywhere soon? Shocked

That looks to be over a foot bill.

Omg it's falling so fast trying to help the boys a bit over a foot so far and what I shoveled is covered and we have a few drifts that Are over 2 ft

by **Frank_Wx** Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:27 pm

Man, I do feel for the folks in SW NJ/SE PA. Models by this point had them changeover, but one theory I am banking on is this storm is taking longer to develop than planned. Once the secondary gets going hoping temps in those places crash.

by **GreyBeard** Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:27 pm

Well quite a different picture outside my widow since 4 AM. As billg so succinctly explained about the dynamics as what was happening back on page 15, my timing at that early hour was before the transfer occurred. I captured a screenshot of the radar back then and the primary was still over Ohio. Learning a lot following along with this storm. Happy shovelling!

I'm just south of Princeton, NJ...been sleeting since about 6 am. Brief transitions to snow, but predominantly sleet. ~8" on the ground from last night mostly. Pretty bummed because of the craziness just to my north!

I haven't done an official measurement, but I'd be shocked if we're not over a foot.
