Awesome Satellite & Updated Snowfall Totals for NYC

Take a look at these awesome visible satellite images taken a few minutes ago, showing the power-house low pressure system responsible for the storm of the last 24 hours (spiral area of low pressure off of the New England coast).  It almost looks like a hurricane!




I didn't spend a lot of time looking into it yet, but so far, I was able to find a barometric pressure reading of 28.59 inches of mercury at Chatham, MA earlier this morning as the low passed off to the East of that location.  Keep in mind that a "normal or average" barometric pressure reading is closer to the 29.90-30.10 range.

In my earlier post this morning I mentioned that the snowfall totals as then reported by the NWS in NYC would probably be updated because many of them were taken while snow was still falling.  They've in fact recently updated that list, and here it is below (by the way, Brooklyn & Newark ended up with 24 inches, Central Park 20 inches, Manhattan 10 inches and JFK airport with 15.5 inches of snow):
