   Areas affected...portions of western into eastern New York...extreme
   northeast Ohio...western into central Pennsylvania

   Concerning...Snow Squall 

   Valid 171634Z - 172130Z

   SUMMARY...Snow showers should persist over the next several hours in
   tandem with diurnal heating across much of central NY into PA. Brief
   bursts of heavier snow may support very localized reductions in
   visibility.

   DISCUSSION...Boundary-layer heating is supporting the generation of
   steep (i.e. 8 C/km) low-level lapse rates, which is encouraging the
   generation and sustenance of scattered, low-topped convective snow
   showers over portions of central NY into PA. A mid-level trough is
   traversing the region, providing enough deep-layer ascent for
   continued snow-shower development through the afternoon. Based on
   reports over the last couple of hours, brief bouts of reduced
   visibility (as low as a quarter to half a mile) have occurred. Given
   the convective nature of these snow showers, brief and localized
   bursts of heavier snow will remain possible through the afternoon on
   an isolated basis, until the steep low-level lapse rates diminish
   later today.

Just a skosh under 5 inches as an average measurement here in Harleigh, as measured by Steve T-Rex at about 9:40 AM. That last burst of bigger Snowflakes helped. Rawrz!! ~ Laz 🦖❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️📏😎

Next time, please come stay at my place or in a nearby hotel at least. I won't mind if this is the "end of my winter".  

We drove by you on way down. Amazing that you go due west then due south. Left angle. Weird there isn’t a more “ as the crow flies “ route.

Got about 5 inches here in Southern Morris County, NJ.  Not too heavy but good packing snow.  Took about an hour and a half to shovel and clean up the cars, ect. but not bad.  Was a nice surprise, looks good for now anyway.
