Just had our best 30 min of the storm and as of 7 am, we're at 2.0". Starting to doubt we get to 3" here (my prediction was 3.2"), as the radar has been much spottier over the last several hours than forecasted and the short term models right now aren't showing more than another inch falling along/SE of 95, if that, especially if mixing reaches 95 later this morning when precip rates are expected to increase, at least for areas NW of 95 and N of 78, where the storm has underperformed significantly with only about 1-2" for much of NWNJ/NEPA/NENJ/NYC. Huge arguments right now over whether the coastal is going to deliver as much snow/precip as was modeled even a few hours ago.
And parts of CNJ have done well, but mostly SE of 95, where 2-3" have fallen (3.5" reported in South River, 2.5" in Howell and 2.5" as far south as Toms River), but the western parts of CNJ haven't done as well. It's not a bust yet, since the storm isn't over, but it'll be a bust if areas along 95 don't get at least another inch and if areas NW of 95 don't get at least 2 more inches - I'm not betting on that right now, but we'll see. Also, the mix line looks like it's along 195 now, but it's not clear how far NW that line goes (probably at least to 95). The storm was forecast very well for SNJ (south of 195) with 2-3" all over that area. Also Philly broke their snow futility streak with 1.5" as of 90 minutes ago, so they should've reached 2" by now, but not sure they'll get another inch.
Despite the storm underperforming, so far, for many, especially along/NW of 95, untreated roads are still snow covered and slippery and the treated roads are slushy, although they'll improve with traffic if we don't get much more snow. And NYC finally reported an end to their streak, as they have 1.4" as of 7 am.
