I remain confident they will hit the 10-15" range I forecasted

Frank can you post where you saw that, I can't find it online.

Was it a Central Park measurement?

That is the best news I've heard all day.

Awesome I was always in this one for the stats anyway, and that means the Conservancy is actually on the job measuring.

Nothing here but I don't really care.

that is very big of you I am confident we see double digits especially if rates pick up still very light right now. Very pretty it is a wet snow. No wind but if we get there may be some power issues. All trees covered. I had get my DD coffee and donuts lol I slept late cuz no school. Those kids wear me out but I like it a lot. Hey I'm get paid and I'll settle to giving up good Friday. I think they said only a half day which counts to a full day fiscally so good.

light to more moderate snow now. hate to be the people who thought it was a bust and decided to go out

I was just tanning outside.

Still keeping hope alive though up here.

LOL, so true CP.We will be lucky to get 6 inches if that at this rate.NWS really blew the start time on this up here, they said 8 AM.

Moderate wet snow just starting here in Bayville 35* with winds starting to pick up.

Worst is yet to come as it cranks and tugs NW.
This is from 1PM

2 inches. snowing like that poor 5 year old with that stomach virus going around. yes sir.

Now

Snow shut off here around noon, and temo rose up about 8* since... 2 inches on grass now looks like 1, sidewalks and driveways are pretty much wet only now. I did like 4 driveways and 2 had very little on them so I barely made any money...

You know, I don't care. I know I am not supposed to look but I don't care. I am having me a look outside again (my wife has threatened to lock me outside and the kids think I am losing it)

Look at the winds at the 300 mb and 500 mb , almost due north from off the Delaware coast to Long Island

Still a steady moderate snow here. Sticking most places except the roads and some sidewalk spots in direct “sunlight”. Rates just not high enough to overcome solar heating on blacktop. Need one of two things: get under a heavier band or keep this going well past 5 or 6 o’clock when the sun starts sinking.

Hey guys Im worried of this storm being a bust. Here in Monmouth county NJ with only about 2 inches so far. what the heck is going on?

4.5” here in Syosset. Flurries now

Blaze. I think Frank, Sroc and RB are tired of responding to the storm being a bust posts. I believe all along the storm wasn't supposed to get cranking for us until the afternoon anyways.

ok thanks. Any chance at 12 inches still?

Drizzle now. Yaaaaay. This bitch better get cranking this evening. It’s prime time now. Wasted snow day from work

Fred , they were talking about this storm getting heavy at 9 to 10 am . Is it getting together later than expected

Absolute bust here on south shore of Long Island. Raining. What a waste. Hoping one day some meterologost will know what there talking abut.

No absolutely it is not a bust at least not here. 4+ and it is snowning at good rate for last 3-4 hours. The worst has to come. I am in 15+ inch area what Frank has predicted and I am confident if it keep going like that for another 10-12 hrs it will be over the prediction. Game is on.

C'mon this storm is nothing but snow showers...no wind and TWC said now Trenton to pick up a few inches..."few inches" far from 12-18 inches to me that's call a bust and u cats were totally caught up in the "hype mode"

Moderate snow here still. 2.5", not liking the sun angle, but it's decreasing. Need the heavier bands

29 degrees and very consistent rates of 2 inches/hour! Approaching 10" on ground. 1' is almost a certainty at this point and I'm guessing 15" is very possible.
