How much snow fell near you? Totals are varied across the Philly area.
Amounts varied radically, with 6-plus inches reported in parts of Chester and Montgomery Counties. Officially, 2.0 was recorded at PHL.
Snow totals from Sunday’s storm varied across the region, with radical differences in some places only a few miles apart, according to the spotter reports posted by the National Weather Service.
Generally, however, they ranged from 3 to 6 inches in the suburban counties to the north and west of the city, and 2 to 3 in Philadelphia and South Jersey.
For the record, officially the city had its biggest snow of the season — a whole 2.0 inches measured at Philadelphia International Airport, besting the 1.8 inches of Jan. 6. The seasonal total stands at 4.9 inches.
The slow development of the changeover from rain to wintry mix to snow held down the the city totals, said Alex Staarmann, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, and most of it accumulated in a few hours.
The highest amount in the region, 6.6 inches, was reported in New Hanover Township, Montgomery County, and 5.7 was measured in Norristown.
Some of these totals may change as new reports come into the National Weather Service, but the the airport total appears to be correct, said Staarmann.
Isolated fluff bombs of larger flakes Sunday night likely bumped up totals in some areas, said Staarmann.
Much of what has fallen likely will stick around, as temperatures may not get above 20 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday.
Here are the snow totals reported to the weather service.
