CT Valley Snowman

Rdps(Reggie) looks interesting in WMA west of the CTRV for a front end thump, even extending down into NW CT for a time.

I second that. 18.5 down here in the valley.

Coated up here at least it looks nice.

Weak

Heavy frost in the mornings and mostly cloudy with some leftover snow piles and patches in shaded areas. Not exactly wintry appeal by January standards in New England but something is better than nothing. 36.7 here.

I found this site. Interesting how they classify way up the Hudson and CT rivers in the Northeast Coastal zone. https://bplant.org/region/116#subregions

Bear Mountain Salisbury, CT to the coast is 60 miles

1.8" new 17.9 season

.8 on 12/20 T sleet/snow 1/1-1/2 16.1 season.

11.3" 15.3 season

2.5 and 1.5 here with the first 2 events for total of 4". It's early so we wait patiently and watch next week .

69 already. What a torch.

You're good. I think we may be out of the game up here north of BDL. 62/58 cloudy skies here.

43 and light rain as winter returns for one last dance.

Man the storm sucked here but 2.9 is ridiculous. You need to check the time stamp on that. 4 is the absolute minimum I could see posted here and 5 is more realistic. BDL came in at 7 and there was better banding west of the river but I would toss the 2.9

GFS was actually pretty decent here. Terrible elsewhere. I think the banding setup just killed us and this was not just a function of elevation. If the storm track was a bit closer to the coast we would have gotten into the CCB but being between the western deform bands and the CCB combined with the valley and time of day was just a killer. We probably would have done better with the prior tracks that were a bit further offshore as well. Anyways Congratulations to Ray and all the big winners tonight. A historic night for some and one helluva storm. Can't say we haven't had our share of tracking to do here in this action packed March.

Not using a board here so I suppose official totals would a bit more. Current depth is 4.2. .4 new past hour. I'll go with a 5 spot. Official protocol may have been closer to 6 here with board/clearing etc,. but I'm usually not around during an entire storm.

I'll go with 4.5 here, current depth is 3.8 after melting, sublimation etc. Steady light snow.

For every 10 storms around here it seems as though 6-7 underperform, 2-3 meet expectations, and 1 suprises and that might be generous. I can't blame the western mass guys out of Springfield for being so conservative sometimes. It's usually a zero sum game around here. Either the CCB banding parks itself right overhead or we get a perfect deform for hours or things just crap out and it's arctic sand and when temps are marginal early and late season there is no margin for error. . With most of the biggies it seems as though the beginning of the storm usually starts slow and you feel behind the 8 ball trying to catch up. Just about at climo for the year now so I guess I should be grateful for that.

4 total here so far. Back to flurries. Meh.

I'm supposedly under darker returns on radar now, snow growth has improved and I've gone from flurries to light snow lol. Was out earlier so not sure what my peak depth might have been but I'm about 3-3.5 on the grass right now.

Just a horrible combination of in between banding features, low elevation, and time of day. Areas to both my west and east have done better than here. Even most of the Berks and Litchfield Hills is 6-12. Only positive is faster melting and less cleanup but really a big time disappointment overall.

Awful storm here. Paltry rates most of the day. Maybe 3 on the grass. Sky brightens at times, main roads are melting, band is sitting 3 miles to my west for about 4 hours. Porked .

Fairly mild 36.8 here as we watch radar.
