Here in Carlisle, shortly after 1:00pm...the temperature is currently 32.9 degrees and has remained below that until the present. The final board measurement was 2.2". However, there was some sleet and tiny bit of either rain or freeing rain. Conservatively, there had to be some compaction at the end that I wasn't here to measure. As a result I am going with a final snow total of 2.5". It likely was a few tenths higher because melting down the snow produced a liquid equivalent of 0.32". The forecast of 2-4" verified and the storm exceeded 2" which is my benchmark for being satisfied with the event. It was just enough to cover the ground in spots. Well, on to the next one. I hope enough snow cover can remain to help enhance the anticipated low temperature Thursday night, perhaps to as low as 10 degrees from radiation. We'll see.

I'll be generous and give you a half inch Saturday....1/3 of the month down. Tick, tock, tick, tock, in Anthony's mouth Mother Nature will stick a sock.

Our rip off zone is alive and well this winter....WB 12Z EURO

Need to get him a handle and have him join the forum. He will fit right in with the rest of us!!! Haha!

One of my sons works down in Chester, NY and just reported a flip to sleet there.

Per Google Maps traffic the RA/SN line is basically Newburyport-Woburn-Natick-Hopkinton under some heavy banding. Grass shows white in the median on Route 2 east of 128, just up the road at 128 and Route 3 in Burlington it looks snowcovered. Tight gradient, perhaps a bit SE than advertised. Could be some nasty driving during the evening commute since media/BOX may have undersold the event. And all of this during peak sun angle, too!

I enjoy Tim Vasquez’ channel! He also has some solid books.

almost at 4" here, still all snow. roads are a mess, no plow yet but a couple weeks ago when there was a dusting that already melted they were out, WTF is that about, every year...

1.5" or so here, then turned to sleet, now freezing rain. Temp 29.

so is the low howie

30.0/29 Growth starting to get a bit better. 1"

Over the last 10-12 years we've had a lot of a zippy busy northern stream action when we're in the game. Lots of mid range flip flops and phantoms. The good thing is the phantoms break both ways and what looks like a nothingburger at d5+ can become a somethingburger at d4- lol. Tracking can be frustrating because any second or 3rd or 4th or whatever shortwave in line is never locked in. I no longer get deeply involved or overthink in patterns like this until a potential event is first in line. Otherwise it's just an exercise in chasing tails and kicking rabbits

Wantage 2.3" mostly sleet at 1PM 28.8F.

Making the thread as we speak

I just realized this was a December 5 event. We have history on our side, and history is known to repeat itself.

That high is near perfection

Everything about that description is just so ass backwards and wrong . Except it’s not today

Missed this, box expanded WAA https://x.com/iembot_box/status/1995891193381621964?t=pUYFfYZcUshVi8KSVUOWbg&s=19

The 12z Euro essentially has an anafront at the end of its run. The front isn't as north/south as we would want it, but it is good that is still showing. I think we incredible return flow in front of it - likely record highs and sever. Then that baby pushes through and things freeze solid. Let's see if that hypothesis holds.

Back edge in sight. Still have light rain, a temp and dp of 36, and 0.88" in the bucket.

Noticed last night in front of the liquor store it was heavily doused. Super max as in 'Don't sue us'...

Yes indeed!
