Unlike what usually happens during snowstorms in our woods, where the highest totals are in our northern suburbs, central New Jersey this time was the jackpot area, as a bunch of heavy snow parked itself there for a few hours. Here, snowfall rates reached 2-4 inches per hour at the height of the storm, which certainly contributed to the double-digit totals found there.

Outside of heavy snow, snow totals varied widely. Even within the five boroughs, there was wide variation between totals, ranging from just 2 inches in Central Park to 10 inches in Tottenville, Staten Island.
