Still early and a more comprehensive analysis tonight including a 72hr, 48hr and 24hr winner. Or maybe tomorrow, depending on the NORHSC or NWS reports.  But I just want to remind everyone what the 0z runs, after a couple of shifts south looked like. Using mostly kuchera except for ukie and ensembles which only have 10:1.  The ukie was particularly poor.

The last two storms for the MidAtl, where it was modeled to have CNJ in the higher totals, changed last minute. The first went south and this one north, Still got snows but the last minute shift on models screwed this area. Storm was going to do what it did all along, the models were all over within 36 hours of event. 🤬

Nam actually did pretty decent with this.

As did contentwxguy. 

Steve d failed, dt and the others that get posted all over twitter/x

Yeah you're right. And I know its a difficult profession. Bernie Rayno I really respect and admire, but this storm was a tough one for Bernie. If it was a football game, the score was: Storm 34, Bernie 6

Which one and where are you?  The one with a lot of snow or the one with a little?

One last gasp and this thing is over, about 2" of slushy snow, get out there and clear it off your driveway/sidewalks before it freezes. Was already starting to freeze in some spots.

Some prelim snow reports.  I dislike that the NWS puts reports from early in the storm onto the lists later in the day.  These are recent though - same area has reports of 3-4". Someone's going to look at this and say Bethel and Danbury got 3"

Power and internet have been out for a couple hours. I hate trying to be on here on my phone. All the best to those who have to move this it is easily the heaviest way to snow I've dealt with in a while

Agree, as evidenced by how clear the roads are up here.

Steve T-Rex has taken his official measurement! Let's call it just under 13 inches as an average measurement here in Harleigh near Hazleton. I say average because compacting is taking place as temperatures rise above the freezing mark. Definitely an over performance on Mother Nature's part. 

 

That total takes my seasonal measurement to just under 35 inches. That's about 21 inches below our average. I haven't looked, but is there anything out there to track? Got my Snowmojo on now! 

PS: The new Snowblower worked awesome, especially cutting through the plowed in Snow at the end of my driveway! Man, that schitt is getting heavy. Rawrz!!  ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️🦖📏

Age prevented a old time all - nighter but almost made it. Heavy snow is rocket fuel for kids like me. My son pulled out his camera stand around 3 am and got some great shots/ videos. Will post later . 

you got close!! I think I woke up at 3AM and you were going strong
