You addressed the storm as both male and female in one sentence. Very America 2018 of you, Al. So proud!

Winds in southern coastal ocean county gusting over 40. I want to say 7-8 in on ground hard to tell with blowing snow. Some spots 12-15" due to drifting. Very heavy band of snow coming through. Maybe 2" hr?

23* light to moderate snow here. Wind continues whipping. Tough to get accurate measure with wind but I’d say we’re about an inch.

8” already. Puking now 2”+ per hour

Syosnow, are you in Monmouth or ocean county? I know your close to me down the shore. 2"hr is accurate

A few inches piled up quickly. Still coming down hard, very windy. This is by far the most intense WWA storm I remember, deceptively low criteria for the current conditions. Definately blizzard-like out there.

I haven’t seen these kind of rates since the blizzard of Feb 2013

Larry- Syosnow is in Syosset, NY not NJ.

few inches going on here, wind whipping the snow off of roof tops and etc. happy with the results

2 other times I can remember snow and wind at this rate. 2010 Boxing Day blizzard and January 1996 blizzard which dropped 3-4" per hr

HOLY SHIT FRANK CHANGE THE SCROLL. PUT GODZILLA IP. WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO. pics are neighbors house 50 yards away and the trees in my yard 40 feet away. Whiteout

My bad dsix85. I confused my jersey shore people

Bridgewater, winds definitely here. I would say about 1.5 -2 inches. Surprised winds made it this far inland along with some heavier bands recently.

Approaching 2 inches in Nutley. That death band is moving in now with ripping snow. My amounts will climb quickly from here on out.

Made it to work in Brooklyn. Crazy snowfall rates - very fine and small flakes but pouring down. Look at that band right over BK/NYC

Same here in Parsippany.  Lots of wind and drifting snow, but I can still see the tips of grass blades most places on the lawn.  So not much snowfall yet.

Looks like Blizzard conditions.
Walked 4 blocks mostly relying on memory. Cant see ish.
LGA 32 gusting to 45

Wow, nice pics man!!! Careful out there.

This storm was maybe 50 miles away from being a Godzilla. If NYC was included in the higher amounts I would have pulled the trigger. It is definitely one for you (and others).
