Jman this is for you. I was looking out my window marveling at the snow blowing almost straight left to right in sheets off in the distance. I turned my head a little to the left and about 100 yards from that spot the snow was now blowing sideways, right to left. That is quite a swirling wind.

Hi everyone, I have been a lurker member here for a very long time, but this is my first post. You guys are my go to weather forecasters and everyone I know hears about you!

I am in Parsippany and it is snowing to beat the band. I've been up since about 7:30, and in an hour and a half, the snow level up against my back door has increased from about 7 inches to about 14 inches, although it is somewhat drifted. It's hard to tell actual depth out on my deck, but looks to be about 10 inches or so.

How do I put myself on the member map?
