02/20 Snow Event - Largest Snowfall Since November?

28* with light to moderate snow. Snow is varying in intensity with occasional heavier bursts followed by lighter periods. All roads are pretty much snow covered but the most heavily traveled well-treated have some blacktop showing in spots. About an inch on coldest surfaces so far here.

2" otg.  Moderate snow. 25/22

Monmouth/Ocean counties should easily hit 4". Reports of well over 2" already. 

Have to say the radar to our west doesn’t look great. A few heavy bands creeping up from the south but the heaviest axis right now is across South Jersey.

MUGS DO NOT RAIN ON OUR PARADE!!!! I currently have 1.5 inches of snow.

It is snowing heavily here at Cranbury NJ. I am at work and will leave soon. At home western ocean county, my wife told it is already close 4 inches.

Agreed, but i believe it's filling in a bit from ABE to Reading. It's picking up again to heavy snow IMBY.

Good to hear because what you’re getting now is about what I’m getting an hour or two later.

LOL, was just starting to rip and then turned off like a light switch.Guess I'll be in the "periods of snow" category with this one.Too far north.Enjoy S and E crew!!!!

This was supposed to produce a lot more in places like York and Lancaster PA (above Mason Dixon Line).  Seems everything is much further east than projected.

Light snow has broken out by me.

It seems to be the best precip is setting up where the resistance is to the high pressure.

Looking at radar I don’t think this will overperform for most. I think it is a general 2-4” with the South Jersey shore being the one place that might see higher totals in a couple spots.

It's actually rain down there so you're not missing anything. Washington DC is rain and freezing rain now. You may be in the sweet spot SENJ.

Light snow here Bad time of the day to start Kind of bright Take whatever

A bore fest here with flurries to occasional light snow, but I expected nothing so I can't say I'm disappointed.

It's PUKING flurries here. BLINDING. Bring on the Spring....

The end could be near. HP center is officially off the coast and wind direction has shifted.

Looking at the radar I agree Doc.Very ragged in PA.This could be another major bust up here by the NWS, not even 1/2 inch.Looks like it's sliding due East from my area.

I have about an inch here. Maybe just over. It really decreased in intensity after the first couple hours. If it continues at this rate for another couple hours I’ll end up at or just below 2” I think. My initial 1-3” call seems to have been a good guess.

It’s been snowing for almost 4 hours now and I only have 1.25” on the ground.  There was a lull of extremely light snow for quite awhile, but it has really picked up again in the last few minutes.

I would say we have about 2-2.5 inches on the ground here in Hopatcong NJ. It really went into a lull between about 1pm-2pm but its been falling at a moderate clip since then. I can't complain. I made it home from work safe (as well as my wife) so we didn't have a repeat of our incident last winter. Got a full bottle of Jameson and some nice beer. Let it snow.

Again, I can't complain.

Now snowing pretty heavy here!! I’m in Dumont NJ at the moment!! Heaviest snow so far this afternoon
