VIDEO: More Than a Foot of Snow in St. James

Thick bands of snow led to high accumulations along the North Shore of Suffolk County.

The biggest winter storm of 2013 blanketed the Smithtown area with more than a foot of snow Friday night, as the heavy, wind-blown snow was set to continue into the night.

Earlier, CBS 2 news reported St. James as having 10 inches, but as of 7:30 p.m., the news network pointed to nearby Stony Brook as having the highest total, with 15 inches so far recorded on the ground there.

According to the most recent weather forecast from the National Weather Service, the Smithtown area may see up to 16 inches total by the time the storm tapers off on Saturday.
