The 4 Seasons

Yeah it looks like the advisories are only there in places simply for the mention of freezing rain. Criteria for zr is a trace or greater. No one is making advisory criteria for snowfall in CT.

I replied right after Kevin but you snuck one in there. so to answer your question, no.

you're probably good for +/- an inch for the thurs event. But it all gets washed away anyways.

Caption this. NWS issues first ever Toaster Bath Warning for areas south of this line. Edit: Looking at this 6 hours later, that line is actually a pretty decent straight line representation of Toaster Bath vs. Decent-Good Snowfall.

That’s not just drugs that’s pure right off the boat Columbian cocaine

Beautiful shots from Stratton today. Probably be pretty difficult to ski in that though.

That's rich.

If you ever want to go back and look at any NWS products from any FO for the past 25 or so years you can find them here. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/wx/afos/list.phtml

They definitely should increase it to .75 or even 1.00 because it seems radial ice is about 50% maybe up to 60 or 70% of that of flat ice measurements. .5 is the threshold for the majority of the Northeast. Which would translate to around .3 for branches.

Stratton looks pretty dismal. Not a good day for skiing, unless you don't like crowds and don't mind ice and fog and freezing drizzle.

So when the NWS forecasts ice accumulations are they assuming radial measurements on branches or flat surfaces?

I never really understood why you take both sides of a small branch measure both and them up and divide by 2. I get the fact that this represents the true ice accretion on a radial object like a branch but it wont match up to all the surrounding reports that the NWS/Media puts out from ASOS measurements or humans just measuring on a flat surface. They should denote the method of measuring or just standardize it to one way only. Both of those methods are going to give you two completely different results. For example, the ice storm we had this year. One spotter in North Haven measured 0.50 on a flat surface and i measured many tree branches that had 0.38 or so on one side and almost nothing on the other. So that means id have to take [0.38+0]/2. The result is .19 and that doesn't jive with any of the reports in my area and probably be thrown out.

Wow, looks like BDL picked up 0.40 Ice last night per the METAR data.

F*** March. But ill take snow whenever i can get it. March snow is like sleeping with your ex in hopes of getting back with her only to find out she left in the morning and isn't coming back.

Not happening James.

smells delicious

thats pretty snowy down to the coast of CT/RI/extreme SE MA. i'm not convinced we even see a dusting down here before mix/liquid.

I can't wait for pollen, hopefully this year we get 1-2mm on car tops and flat surfaces!

To each their own. I'm in no position to tell anyone else how they should or shouldn't be feeling with regards to weather or anyting else for that matter.

This is the biggest troll comment to date. 10/10

i mean ok...if you want to look at CT or SW CT as a NYC area but its really New England obviously. So he belongs here.

funaway? runaway? hes in CT
