RCostello 23 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Steady moderate snow continues in Haddon Heights, NJ. We had similar rates most of the night just east of Philadelphia- and have "nickled and dined" our way to roughly 8.5 inches (compacted). I was surprised at the several inches we accumulated last night...I will remember this one for its duration and persistence. I recall the "Blizzard of 96" was of particularly long duration- this one may top it (although certainly not for accumulation) in terms of its non-stop wintry precipitation duration- I've not observed it stop once here. Keeps the mood going! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frankdp23 1,296 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Steady light snow here right now. Picked up 2" overnight. Decent amount of compaction overnight with the sleet layer on top. 20" total so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chescopawxman 1,162 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Continues to snow steadily here in East Nantmeal Twp in NW Chesco. We have picked up another 1.0" of snow since 6am. Total since midnight now 2.5". Storm total now up to 16.1" this is the biggest snow event in Western Chester County since the 26.0" that fell on 1/23/16. We have also tied the totals from the Blizzard of 1993 for the 22nd largest snowstorm in Chester County history back to 1894 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PreserveJon 269 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 After some compaction this morning, I measured 18". The snowboard is somewhere in the barn and I didn't put it out last night. Took this shot last night around 11 after shoveling the walk. About 7" fell after this shot. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some sleet and rain for about three hours on Monday afternoon kept snow totals down in my little corner. @frankdp23, how did you make out? I had 18" yesterday, and 2" more overnight. For that first part, the mix line was about as close as it could come to me (it must have been less than 2 miles south of me when looking at radarscope). Then around 1:30 the sleet came. I didn't see any rain. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nodriveslow 66 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 So, I'm at a total of 10" so far. 3.3" yesterday morning, 2.5" measured when I got home from work, 2" around 9:30pm, and another 2.2" this morning at 6:00. Heck of a way to get to double digits. Snow got very wet last night - sticking to everything. Looks really nice! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Heisenberg 1,761 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Could be flakes in the air until after 7pm here’s some pictures down in northeast Philly near airport. They didn’t so bad honestly, I’d guess 7-10 eye balling 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gerg04 26 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Beautiful morning, indeed! When it was absolutely dumping snow around 12:30 this morning, I knew we'd be waking up to some amazing scenery. Did not disappoint. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colonel_kurtz 3,334 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Congrats to the jackpot crew to north, just an epic band yesterday morning. For the metro crew, while tensions were high during never ending sleetfest & interventions immanent I think the vast majority are happy with the end result. Never gets old, the hood looks great this morning. 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Want to echo others and offer my many thanks to the regulars on this board who provide both information and entertainment! It's been a pleasure to read along as you track(ed) the storm. (maybe not always a pleasure--frustrating sometimes depending on what the models were saying!) Any estimate on accumulations for your area? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Njcat 47 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Hey @joesnow, I'm in S. Philly...it's hard to tell b/c of compaction due to time and the sleet yesterday, but I'm guessing around 8"? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
