Nice

Measured around 5 or 6 inches. Overperformer here in the Lower HV.

Snow is lighter now, is this it?

You're probably around 30.

I'm basing it on the amount of beers per hour divided by inches per storm over time. Complicated equation. My Bellerose buddy math helped me on that one.

LOL I have been getting good snow here. I took some good pictures too with more to come!

If that scum bag Juno didn't bust I also would be near 70 inches. Ma vaffanculo...

You're right on track syo. I'm in northwest Suffolk and I'm at 69" for the season and have about 3" today and its snowing very hard still. Easily over 70" for the season once this is said and done! Awesome winter!

Thanks buddy. Makes sense. Im only 2 miles from the NW border of Suffolk.

Math!!! This has to rank me in the top 3 of my lifetime. 70" here with almost nothing before late January. Jeeze. Laughing

I'm closer to Central Park than Islip or Upton for Christs' sake.

by **snow247** Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:42 pm

Put in my report as 5.2 inches. Still snowing.

Every other official report in my county is always too low, so no doubt Upton won't use my total.

No prob. Thats two straight winters of 70"+ for me, hopefully this continues with the years to come.

.............Absolutely ripping here right now. sroc4 was at 2.5 2 hours ago. He's 25 miles east of me. He'll get to 6" easy. Im closing in on 4" within next hour. only 1.5" on paved surfaces.

Hey Dunzoo,

I'm in Teaneck where ironically it has picked up nicely since my last post.

I want to be in the jackpot for once. .anyhow..banter I know but I had to vent and my wife doesn't care
Yep Manny, mugs and I have often encountered the black snow hole over NENJ where in Bergen County are you?

Wish i made my 6-12 forecast official, everyone called me crazy and i doubted my own cynicism but i knew it looked like it was forming too late.

I was at 65" last year. I have to be honest, I'm very nervous moving forwards. I feel like we've cashed in all our chips snow wise these past few years and now we're due for a 10 year drought. It's a feeling I can't shake every time it snows. Mad

by **snow247** Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:46 pm

Very nice storm. Just wish it stuck to the roads more.

But after all, it is March 20th.

by **snow247** Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:48 pm

If I got the 24-36 that I was told I was getting from Juno AND didn't get shafted with most of the storms doc, CP, and I would be at atleast 100 inches lol.

by **snow247** Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:49 pm

Wow, pouring snow here again after a brief lull, maybe I'll get 6". It's the perfect timing!

I definitely busted on my snow map for the HV, I had my area getting only 1"-3".

by Guest Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:49 pm

just looked at radar. 1 hour left here in Nassau. 3 hours left from Islip east of heavy snow. Maybe another .75" here and 2 to 3" more from Islip east. sroc4 Jackpot!!!

Frank your 3 to 6" for LI verified perfectly. Un po' di fortuna!!

by **Frank_Wx** Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:50 pm

Overall, great storm. If any busts occurred they were due to being too low! Especially along the coastal plain.

You're like the anti-zookeeper your totals always seem high.

Haha, Maybe it's just under 5.0", definitely more than 4.0" though. I measured several spots.

I'm positive.

I'll do it again after it stops snowing, maybe take a pic or two and post it here.

by Guest Fri Mar 20, 2015 7:02 pm

To get a 4 to 6" snow area wide in 7 hours time during the daylight in late March is pretty remarkable. Nice storm. Great topper to the season.

Hey Doc I'm less than 1/2 inch away Very Happy

Most fell from 3 till now!! I was very pessimistic and actually declared a bust officially at 3. I was wrong.

10 year drought might be a little severe haha, but i could see some below par winters coming up to balance things out... unfortunately
