  1. That squall line in Fairfield/New Haven counties what savage! I’d say close to an inch in some spots in less than 20 minutes! 10” on Tuesday, some mood flakes Wednesday night, 3-4” of fresh snow to refresh our “mini pack” this morning and a quick half inch to and inch this afternoon under the squalls! 21” season total here on the SW CT coastline. Not great and below average but I’ll take it, considering the start to our season and the amount of snow we’ve gotten, despite the above average temps and pattern we are in.. .
  2. Where are you located in CT? I was out and about around Fairfield county earlier this morning during the height of the storm - (Fairfield-Easton-monroe-newtown) and also just drove up rt 8 to Thomaston and back to Bridgeport. Btw, Naugatuck valley to Waterbury to Thomaston got ROCKED! Easily foot plus and way less compaction vs the shoreline. This morning I got out in Easton and Monroe during the heavy rates and was getting a lot of measurements around 10 - 14”. Even Greenfield Hill, Fairfield had around a foot this am, but then as the sun got higher and the rates subsided, it all compacted down to what looked like 6-8”. I think some people waited too long to measure or measured during slower rates which, in this storm, could be the difference between measuring 12” vs 8”. Finally looks like winter around here in SNE again. Hopefully this is the storm that ended the snow drought. I hope.. .
  3. About 12” Fairfield CT - north side of town. Can’t believe it’s been 2 years since snow like this. It could have been 2’ if we had better ratios, but I’ll take it! [emoji1591] .
  4. BDR and coastal CT looks good as of 0z..from that blend I’d go 8-12 .
  5. It is 36 hours plus away here. 48 hours from now is midnight Tuesday, long after the snow has stopped. This is happening. .
  6. You got over a foot lol we got about 14” in BPT on the water (black rock) Fairfield has a measurement of 16.2 at 3 pm
  7. Very tight gradient here in Fairfield county. 6-8” storm for the majority of the county but eastern Fairfield county along the beach got hit hard (Fairfield, Bridgeport). The gradient was very obvious while out driving. Just saw a report of 16” in Fairfield and 10.4 was the last I saw at BDR airport at 1pm and I figured they got an inch or two on top of that.. anyways we were right on that edge
  8. Yea man we have a foot easy here in Black Rock. I think those totals in Fairfield and BPT are from this morning. I just got home, highest amounts I saw are here, very tight gradient NW of Fairfield
  9. Very similar pattern.. honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we get shafted here in SW CT bc The pattern is so similar to that when Juno happened. Let’s see where the bands set up. Models are now pretty much useless at least all but the short range models and even those are stupid bc at that point it’s better to just look outside and look at the radar lol
  10. What is downsloping? I’m on the coast here in Fairfield CT and it seems we have had a pretty good run here with 2’+ storms. 2006 was great for us (30”), 2013 was great (35”) we do well with those (further west than modeled) death bands. They seem to set up in a similar location every time almost running through interior Maine SW through NH/VT and then south through western Mass and western/central CT. Hope you guys do well with this one.
  11. Also 8mb weaker. GFS is not handling this storm correctly (my opinion). Big storms come west. This is a BIG storm. We’ve seen this so many times before. If 12z euro goes east then yeah, I’d expect this to be mostly a ENE storm…
  12. Ended up with another about 8 or 9” here in SW CT. Nice little event for sure. Loving the pack developing here. Looks to only get deeper too! Starting to look like 2011 and 2015 around here!
  13. Snow breeds snow. I’ve always believed in that. Bands are setting up in similar areas as last storm it looks like. White out conditions in Fairfield. Probably at least an inch per hour rates at moment. 30 degrees.
  14. I think we are mostly done here with the accumulating snows. Great storm for coastal SW CT. 18” total. If we can squeeze out another inch or two, it’s all extra
  15. I’m in black rock on water and am averaging 17” still snowing pretty good
  16. They had 10.5 at 12:51.lmao that measurement is not correct
