The strong winds and weight of snow on tree limbs may down power lines and could cause sporadic power outages. Significant snowfall and periods of heavy snowfall rates will combine with low visibility to create very dangerous driving conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the Wednesday morning commute. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Monitor the latest forecasts for updates on this situation. Persons should consider delaying all travel. If travel is absolutely necessary, drive with extreme caution. Consider taking a winter storm kit along with you, including such items as tire chains, booster cables, flashlight, shovel, blankets and extra clothing.

7.0” .50” qpf LE, 14:1 snow ratio

Not sure, Haven't looked today for weds, We hold CAD for a bit before we mix out, I'm going to do a core when its done today, But this stuff here is all fluff.

Maybe some frontend stuff Don, But its going to rain here too, As long as western and northern maine cash, I'm good.

Only to be wiped clean on Weds,You guys don't care about snow pack anyways, Hate to see it though.

Don't think they got much of anything, They should get some Weds.

All powder here too Rick, Stayed in the teens all day.

6.5", Really never got into any heavy stationary bands here.

Best rates of the storm so far, KLEW 071956Z AUTO 36012KT 1/2SM SN FZFG OVC008 M07/M08 A2971 RMK AO2 SLP074 P0000 T10721083 FZRANO

Throw some front end paste on that weds and then that will be the sacrifice snows.

Just took my first measurement, 4" so far.

Eyeballing 3”+ now into some good rates and snow growth in this band, 16/12F

When the heavier echoes move in the growth improves.

Part 1 didn't do much here whereas others benefited from the heavier bands, I could tell yesterday that you were not feeling good about the direction modeling was going when the NW tics were happening, For here, It was about the ENE move of the SLP, I was more focused on how far north it could gain Lat before that happened because that would be the difference between 4-8" and 8-12" up here, Looks like we will be in that lower range pending on what part 2 does.

Total, I'm yet to find up here when its been good and i look at it all time, Its pretty erratic.

18z and 0z had SEMA getting 12"+, To cold there.

To cold, It wasn't good at all, If the Nam shows warmth, Respect it.

Back to garbage snow growth.

Into some 25-28dbz rates now, SN, 15/12°F

Eyeballing 2" here, Snow growth has improved though, It was sand most of the night.

Didn't pre season it?

Underway here, -SN, 19/9°F

OVC, 20/10°F, Were going to have some dry air to overcome.
