Yeah good call dude. I probably would have went higher last minute as well.  Good job. 

Yea i ended up going up on the ice numbers and staying the same on the snowfall. Glad i did both. 

Quite an icestorm down at the shore here in CT 0.50"+ we got that half inch @ORH_wxman!!!

It's absolutely beautiful outside, hardly any ice melted off of the trees and we got a solid snow covering on top of the ice now. Should stick around for a few days...

anymore CT totals please.

if anybody has measurable totals across the state please send them 

Norfolk - 2"

North Haven - 0.3"

It's all done now. 15 minutes of moderate to boarderline heavy snow and snow grains. Just over a coating. 0.3" total. Whitened things up a bit. Skys already clearing sun is out.

I took my drone up and captured some cool videos though

Funny its about to be heavy snow in about 20 minutes and its perfectly clear right now. Sunny 33F

Lol...never knew they had snow squall warnings??  Never saw that before ever. 

It's relatively new, theyve been out for about 2 years.

Squall warnings out for southern CT counties.

Phone just blew up like it was a tornado warning, snow squall warnings pushed through text

Not bad....staying conservative down south was a good call....I would've been suckered into going pretty big down there. Usually when guidance all shifts toward a good hit less than 24h out, it's correct....but it backed off quickly....tough event to forecast for....but holding steady proved to be the best course of action.

Thank you i appreciate the acknowledgement. Think it was a B/B- for both Ice and Snow. 

I was tempted to go up and seriously considering it but after many mesos started backing down the front end thump and warming mid levels i held off. Interestingly this was my first call as well. Funny it was literally the lowest snowfall forecast out there and it was STILL too high in N 1/3 of CT. I didn't want to shave that 2-4 down though because at least that looked like a reasonable call, even with the trends. 

It's gonna be hilarious when most get more snow today than they did from yesterday's storm.

Shortfuse snowfall map created, because why not. Heavy snow approaching New Haven county right now. 

Nobody talking about these squalls? It's about to get serious here. 2" in Norfolk just a little while ago.

snowfall totals and ice totals from 12/17

Dec 18th Snow Squall Event

a whopping 0.3" of snow last night puts me to 6.2 on the season

got more ice than snow..0.38 ice another spotter in North Haven measured 0.5" on a flat surface, i used the small tree branch method.

Wow. Bad melting from you today. I was seriously just asking what you had because there was a split in town with the western side toward the CRV being 29-30°. sorry I stole your snow.

Turn your heat on btw in case you lose power.

64.5 inside is frigid. 68-72 is room temperature

Yes rain is over. Sleet or flakes

well itll be getting colder as the night progresses which means more trees and powerlines down most likely
