Their no doubt 2-3ft is readable got 14 here now and snows until 1 am

Tough to tell how much snow with the wind. But wind is howling at times now. Sideways white sheets is all i see.

they are comparing it to 96 on tv

I can see that with snow and 92" for winds and flooding

Can Clearly see the pivot now on radar

Just measured several spots in the front yard...the measurements were between 15-16 inches everywhere. I think we will easily go over 24+ inches....Great Storm!!

22* moderate snow, at least 2".

This storm is not like the 96 storm. The 96 storm was much worst. Started with a moderate low pressure moving up the coast on a stationary type front. it dropped about 12 to 15 inches in a 12 hour period or so. Then at night from midnight to 6 or 7 am, the upper level low came thru. This upper level low was real intense, never hooked up with the surface low which passed by in the afternoon. The upper level system dropped 12 to 15 inches of snow in 6 hours. That was a real big storm.

31* Heavy Snow Windy Looks like fog can't see much Maybe 4-5" Frank Are we to have less amounts cause it moving faster??

Another monster band heading right for Long Island

NWS better rethink for a blizzard warning up here.Whiteout conditions at times with howling wind.Heavy stuff coming in now.

Very heavy snow right now winds are screaming my house is shaking I think I have 7 inches hard to because of the snow drifts

Heavy snow now. 25* visibility way down

Left Dutchess county at 5 this morning. No snow. Starting flurrying as I headed south. Light snow just started in Northern Westchester around 6. A Dusting as of now. Most snow i have seen all year. Kind of sad.

Beautifully tucked into the Delmarva

Approaching 3 inches

I meant I think I have 7 inches of snow hard to tell because if the snow drifts but wow it's I have seen snow like this since 2010 and 96 its a white out conditions

Wheres Frank?

Getting shafted up here. Been snowing since 1am and I have 1.25-1.5" lol
