On the south edge of Clinton Township its coming down good but think we are on the northern edge of that band.  Ppl in Flemington proper must be getting creamed.

We are definitely getting spanked in Flemington, but it's not puking snow like it did for a few hours during the last storm. But it's coming down at a good clip. Eyeball measuring close to 6 inches likely.

5" so far!! Wow so i gained like 1.5' in a little over an hour, its fluffy but wed when stepped on and mega slippery.

Keep it coming up! KC & the Sunshine Band anyone?

Map not posting from sirrico site
But Holly

I think that's accurate. 15 miles south of me may get close to 10" out of this beauty.

mugs you okay? that radar is from 1/23/2018 lol, i thought it looked odd.

ALL GOOF here JMAN and the sirrico site for some reason doesn't post on this site  as the current
here is the link I am using and referring to if you want to take a look - you are in a sweet spot for this JMAN

The radar see what I mean??? - Frank has to get on this LOL!

Oy moving into a snow hole maybe the sinking air alex was talking about is expanding? We will see if it fills in but its down to a very light fine snow now. Still happy if 5" is all i get.

yeah 5" so far, its quieted down now but hoping it picks back up. Yeah when i click the link its correct but when you post it it shows from 1/23/18, odd.

Areas affected...Long Island through southeastern New England

Concerning...Heavy snow

Valid 071640Z - 072045Z

SUMMARY...Heavy snow is in the process of developing, with hourly
snow rates expected to maximize around to 2-3+ inches per hour by
2-4 PM EST across the Greater Providence and southern Greater Boston
Metropolitan areas.

DISCUSSION...Rapid deepening of a surface cyclone is now underway to
the east-northeast of the southern Mid Atlantic coast, as a 100 kt
cyclonic 500 mb jet streak, associated with a vigorous mid-level
short wave impulse, noses across the North Carolina coast. This
system is forecast to accelerate northeastward through this
afternoon, with continued rapid deepening of the cyclone, and
intensifying deep-layer frontogenetic forcing to its
north-northeast.

Periods of heavy snow have already been observed within the
developing frontal precipitation band across parts of southeastern
Pennsylvania into the Greater New York City area, with increasing
snow rates in the process of developing across Long Island and
southern New England. Latest model output suggests that forcing for
ascent will increasingly be aided by strengthening frontogenesis in
the 700-500 mb layer, across southeastern New England during the
18-21Z time frame.

Forecast soundings indicate that this will include the favorably
cold mixed-phase layer supportive of large dendritic ice crystal
growth, which may maximize across Rhode Island and southeastern
Massachusetts. This likely will include snow rates occasionally on
the order of 2 inches per hour, and at least some guidance appears
suggestive that an influx of lower/mid-level moisture may contribute
to weak destabilization supportive of convective bursts around 3+
inches per hour.

36* in Cape May County and I can report our heavy rain has just changed to heavy snow here in the furthest reaches of the Jersey Shore.

If thats true LI wil leasily see a foot if it snows 2-3 inches per hour from 2pm til lthe end, its supposed end this evening so thats like 5 hrs of 2-3 thats 10-15!!

Good call some are seeing upward of 8-10" if this banding continues for a few more hours.
I am at 5" so far

Heavy snow! TWC now says 5-8”!!! Woot woot. Joy! Rapture!

At 11:30 AM EST, White Plains [Westchester Co, NY] TRAINED SPOTTER reports SNOW of 5.00 INCH https://t.co/TL8kM1Baa3

Finally got on the right side of the r/s line

Temps are going to freefall this evening. Everything wet will be a sheet of ice. If you can mitigate that before the game starts it'll be easier.

stopped snowing, do you guys think theres more, fill in?

Slowing down alot here now.

itsa already slippery enough, no salt or plowing on my street, a amazon truck almost hit a parked car when his back end swung out trying to floor it up the hill, ythey best plow b4 that happens.

i love as soon as the snow lets up everyone assumes its over and goes out to clean up.

If that band holds together over NJ moving into the ocean LI is going to get half a foot easily from it.

6” and counting in Clifton, NJ

I do not understand, the radar shows some pretty moderate to heavy returns over my area but its barely snowing odd.

Edit: spoke too soon, picked up again. yay lol

Jman its picking up alittle more here
