The Conservancy measured 6 inches as of 8 am. I can't comment on the accuracy yet but just the fact they reported this early in a storm is encouraging, you would never ever get that from the zookeeper. Very Happy

Does any one have images of current upper level wind patterns or of something showing why the northern cutoff is where it is.

It is because the rates let up, once banding comes back in we will switch back. Precip is too weak ATM.

Looked out my back window on patio. No snow. Opened the garage door, at least 2 feet on the driveway.

Good news is it is not sticking to trees or roof.

by **docstox12** Sat Jan 23, 2016 8:43 am

Heavy windblown snow.Maybe 2 to 3 inches now.

19 and steady. 29.55 and humidity still rising at 85%.

Visibility dropping .

Hey frank could you give us a update on want you think on the storm and when is it going to end

by **CPcantmeasuresnow** Sat Jan 23, 2016 8:44 am

Latest results

Central Park 6.0 inches
Newark 6.5 inches
JFK 7.1 inches
Laguardia 7.2 inches

Houston I'm already sensing a Conservancy problem. Not a good start other than reporting on time for once.
