The 4 Seasons

Pure sleet storm. I havent seen anything like this since 2/14/07 when we got like 4-5" of sleet.

1.7" sleet

100% sleet from the start just measured 1.5". Thats a lot of sleet. roads are completely covered with no sign of plows.

This whole thing...this is all i can think about HOW BOUT I TAKE YOUR LITTLE BOARD AND SMAAASSHHHGHGHGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Lets get it get it started...A solid warning snowfall for the interior and a wintry mix of snow/sleet/freezing rain for southern areas. Todays highs, at least in CT, were on the colder side of guidance with temps in the upper 20s and lower 30s. Most of the region sits in the 20s and low 30s below freezing at the moment.

George is getting angry. All i can think is Seinfeld.

thats reasonable for your area 10:1 is always a great baseline to start at with most storms. The only two big storms weve had in CT this season were generally averaged around 15-22:1 for most, at least in CT anyway. It's been a season of unusually high ratios.

i was tryting to think of the word for that semantics, thats what i meant..pan handle

Final call. Another headache of a forecast this winter. We kept the original range of 4-8" the same with highest amounts obviously near the mass boarder. If you are close to the 2-4" line expect the lower end of that 4-8" range. Least amount likely near the NY boarder in the notch of far SW CT. First call: Warnings/Advisories:

I'd be shocked if those watches in N CT don't go to warnings

Word

huh? have you been mia the past 4 days and not looking at anything? I've been going for 4-8" for us since Sunday morning. Theres winter storm watches up since yesterday

Definitely the best Euro run so far for CT.

yea thats just a difference between LFOs, BOX only goes up to the NH/VT boarder...they used to have the southern most 2 NH counties but a few years ago GYX took them over.

Yeah, that's something we're waiting to see but i think for now we're gonna hold off on any changes. I like our 4-8" statewide right now, might end up splitting it up and going a touch higher in N CT.

Well using beyond say 24-36hrs is always risky business and we are just starting to get in that range, add to the fact a lot of the other mesos and hi res stuff is much colder and more in-line with the GFS/EC/GEM. It'll come around tonight and i surely would not be surprised to see it being on the other end of the spectrum with a run or two dumping 1ft+ in CT.

The Hi-ResKEV finally caved

Its already in the 30s in the NW hills

beautiful day today, i dont mind these..i went for a walk, felt like 80 in the sun

71

RIP RPM

also looks quite a bit faster which we tend to expect with these type of systems.

First call. Given the fact that we are still 60+ hrs out we went with a general 4-8" for CT with highest end of the range likely for N CT and lower amounts near the coast. The globals GFS/EC/GEM being south at 12Z and colder were a good sign but we're not ready to the pull the trigger on bigger amounts 6-10/8-12 for CT just yet. We're also allowing for some tics north/warmer in future runs. Right now 4-8" for most of CT with sleet/zr slot ending as some light snow possibly. Not to mention lift in the DGZ looks god awful but several hours of 8-10:1 snowfall will achieve these ranges atm.

It's a goddamn warzone in here

The funny thing is 10:1 is almost exactly the same for CT, RI and most of MA. So especially for this storm there's even less of reason to post it. It's zonked out in CNE and NNE obv due to the much cooler max T in the profile
