Back to Back Snow Events FEB 9th-11th

Congratulations frank ur the winner LOL I only got a 1 inch of

1.25” of snow here this morning, and I think it’s over now.

25* with light snow. Eyeballing at about 2.5-3” of fresh powdery snow.  That table was cleared last night.  Sipping coffee with the wife so no official measurement yet. An hour ago laying in bed I heard the plow go by and popped out of bed because I was like “plow!?!  That could only mean one thing!!””  Lol. I love snow.

0.5" in southern dutchess

1 inch in Nutley township.

Got an inch here, nice pretty coating.

2 inches here in brooklyn

Eyeballing 4-5". Looks like the I was just out of the jackpot zone of 5-6" which was southern NJ but away from the coast, just as advertised in fact. Still snowing lightly/steady, but it looks like the radar just loaded up one last decent batch north of Philly, which now looks to be heading through this way!! Snow just kicked back up. Maybe we can make a run at 6" before it's all done!

And Mom, I think you'll appreciate this. At 2 am I stopped squinting into my 'floodlight-ed' backyard and went to sleep, ONLY because the snowfall wasn't intense enough to justify my ridiculous behavior. lol...then at 6:30 am, my 7 year old Violet announced from my bedroom window "I think it's a foot of snow!"  That was exactly like Sroc hearing the plow from the dead sleep. But, instead of popping 9/10 awake with excitement, I responded 9/10 asleep with a very cranky and groggy: "HALF a foot...maybe...shhh..."    

As I typed this (over the course of 30 min lol), the radar really filled in nicely in N Ocean County. We might get another hour of solid snowfall here!! Woo hoo!!

1.5 inches in Deer Park Out in Suffolk County

Just to show how impressive this back building is going to be, when I first woke up (uh, was woke up, VIOLET!!), there was a 54% chance of snow for 7 am, now it shows 84% through 9 am!   These first two weeks of February have been something else, haven't they!

Woohoo

Mother Nature is distributing her wealth to everyone this winter

Present radar and present storm totals. A true Mid Atlantic classic!

I tend to see the world thru Violet colored glasses, but anyone else see a lot of purple hue out there on LBI???

it's so exciting!! Waking up to the sight of snow and the chill in the air..just like a winter should be... Enjoy the day!!

Still snowing here approx 3 to 4 inches

Back building in the radar now indicating 2-3 more hours of moderate snow S Monmouth through Central Ocean. More so for points south. My experience says cut that in half, maybe into 1/3. Thinking the steady snow to continue thru 9 am at this point and then taper off quickly. My goodness!

All the circumstancial evidence in this picture indicates 4.5-5”. I’ll get out there after breakfast for the official measurement ceremony.

25* with a wind chill of 18* here. Fresh covering of about 2.5” of snow this morning.

1" in Bloomfield.

Nice to see our Central and southern friends getting the goods.

At work here in southern Atlantic county NJ. About 10 minutes west of Atlantic City and 10 miles north of Cape May county. Still snowing about 4-5 inches here from Very southern NJ.

... Atlantic County, NJ

New Hope update: 3" on the driveway (previously plowed and clear), nothing on the street (it's beem well salted); 29*

0.7 inches for this event puts the seasonal now at 50.5 inches right at the average for a full season. Happy that the extreme southern end of our forum finally jackpotted.
