An amazing job by our leaders here and amazing storm. Lets get the next one. Still lightly snowing in Manhattan

by Biggin23 Sat Jan 23, 2016 10:47 pm

Not sure what my final total will be. Still dumping here in Jackson in the deathband, LOL. I have dug out two plows after dinner so I am calling it a night. Amazing week tracking and an epic storm. This group is great and I can't wait to track the next one!!!

17" here, nothing crazy locally and def not the biggest but definitely a storm to remember for its duration, snow rates, and the fact that NYC saw one of its largest snowstorms.

I got real lucky here. Just 15-20 miles north of me got 0"... Nothing from this. Talk about a sharp gradient.

Congrats to those that got even more than I did. Hoping the rest of the winter produces for us. Smile

12 inches even. 20 miles north of us was 0 so under the circumstances I can't complain.

Doc got 13 inches he's about 5 miles from me.

Jimmy, CP and I are very grateful to get these totals considering 20 miles north of us there was 0.NWS had me only 2 to 4 the day before the storm.Sorry for my colleagues up there who busted out.

Thanks jimv and glad you went skiing.We need a HV Special to even out the score with the Jersey Shore and LI Guys and Gals.Coastal hugger that blasts us while they rain/mix.Something bigger than the Thanksgiving 2014 storm.I'll drink with you to that~!

Patiently awaiting the final measurement at Central Park. Gonna be close.

We are very lucky and it really eases the pain of reading Central Park got twice as much as me.I was in pain reading the Juno totals getting only 2 inches.

Finished with 13.1" here. Not to bad considering I woke up this morning with most news outlets saying 3-6" lol This marks the 6th year in a row I've seen at least one 12" snow storm. However I have not seen 20" since 2006. So I guess it's a trade off. Impressive storm all around!

To echo others, a huge thank you to Frank and many others on this forum. I learned a lot about forecasting. This storm has been absolutely remarkable for most of us. To get over two feet of snow in roughly 24 hours is breathtaking. Looking forward to future storms (and to seeing those people North of I-84 get crushed as well)!

Everyone please check back tomorrow to read a Storm in Review blog. Thanks and have a good night.

What a great blizzard we had just finished shoveling I ran out of room for my snow pile I must have 5 ft snow pile all around my house .still snowing very lightly I ended up with 28 inches of snow

by **Frank_Wx** Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:31 pm

Wow, another band coming over me in NE NJ and probably into NYC too. This will push me to 30 inches.

Nice! Hope so!

I think the only people who love snowstorms are us crazies on weatherboards, and 8 year olds.

Just when you think FRANK went to bed...he's back for more. Ur the best man!

by **skinsfan1177** Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:53 pm

Still snowi,g at a good clip here. 24 hours straight of plowing and its a mess lol

by Bkdude Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:55 pm

I guess my greater point is. It's a real test of stamina to walk or shovel in almost 2 or more feet of snow. I can imagine when I am 60 I wont be as enthused, or maybe I will. But until tell....Bring it on!!

by Bkdude Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:56 pm

Ya dig...get it..?? dig??

by **Dtone** Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:58 pm

Wonder what Central Park's total will be.
JFK had at least 27.7" setting a new an all-time record.

by roccuweather Sun Jan 24, 2016 12:07 am

What's the word on the potential storm for next weekend alluded to in the scroll?

by **Math23x7** Sun Jan 24, 2016 12:16 am

CPK's snow measurement as of midnight is 26.8". Now, another band is entering NYC. Let's see if it adds to the total.

by Brookster Sun Jan 24, 2016 12:17 am

32" up here in Forks Township, PA. Unbelievable storm! Big thanks to Frank and everybody else for a fun week tracking this beast.

by **jake732** Sun Jan 24, 2016 12:18 am

What time did the euro run? We got another storm to track Smile

That's crazy as much. As I like this storm it hurts to miss the record by so little
