    So far, no flip back to snow here. But we have way more ice than I expected from this one. Not sure how much because it's dark. But there's at least enough to have visible icicles on the power lines, and enough to flatten a mature 8' steeds holly to about half its normal height. You can hear the ice on the tree limbs when the wind blows. North facing surfaces seem to be hit the worst.

    29 F and a mix of freezing rain and sleet here. Got about 2.5-3 inches on the ground before the switch. Roads look really messy.

    Looks like we've switched to straight freezing rain here. Seems to have switched over as soon as that heavier band of precip over central MA moved in.

    Hearing some pinging out there now at the border of Southern and Northern Worc County.

    About an inch on the ground with moderate snow right now at the Worcester / WB line. Major roads right off the highway are snow covered. It's the perfect snowfall for a nice cup of tea and staying off the roads. First storms without any existing salt or sand on the road are pretty messy, even with just a few inches of snow.

    Light snow, and sticking to the roads pretty quickly here at the Holden / WB / Worcester line. Warm pavement? Not here. Warm grass, maybe.

    I'm probably a couple miles north of you, and have a little over 6" here too. It's beautiful--just didn't expect to get my biggest snowfall of the season mid-April.

    Guess this is what we should expect now that they have cut all that funding and staff at NWS? Most recent snow map on the website is from 7:30 pm last night. I'm in the 2-3" range on this map and I'm technically not even in the WWA zone. I'm at 650 elevation and have at least 6" on the ground...and it's still snowing. The 3:30 am update follows suit:

    At the border of Northern and Southern Worcester County. About 650 elevation.

    Looks like 6" on the nose here:
  11. wx_observer
    Nope. But I didn't hear any thunderclaps after that first one.

    This is on a double-line main road. I'd say we're around 4" here, at least that much on grassy surfaces.

    Beefy band in Central MA--still snow, at least where I am.

    Thundersnow in Central MA!!!
  15. wx_observer
    I can't remember the last time I heard wind howl like this. We have to be gusting over 60 here.
  16. wx_observer
    24F and pouring freezing rain here now. A few pellets mixed in.

    Heavy sleet right now in Central MA at the NWC/SWC border. Actually...it sounds like it might have switched over to more freezing rain as I'm typing this.
  18. wx_observer
    Looks like we had freezing rain most of the night in Central MA. There's maybe about a .10 glaze out there.
  19. wx_observer
    Lots of huuuuge flakes in Central MA right now. Maybe around 4" on the ground, but it's snowing at a pretty good clip here ATM.

    We got just enough frozen precipitation overnight to make mini icicle nubs on the handrails and glaze the car windows. Roads and sidewalks could be really slick until it warms up a few more degrees.
  21. wx_observer
    It's 44 here now, with a wind chill of about 36 F. Going to have several chilly nights in central MA, getting down into the 20s.

    Seems to be a theme emerging for the winter season. Might hedge my bets again this year and pay per diem for snow removal instead of a flat rate for the whole season.

    Hot damn, GOES-19...that loop is incredible! Wish this beast wasn't heading towards any population centers though. https://satlib.cira.colostate.edu/loop_of_the_day/jaw-dropping-high-resolution-view-of-hurricane-miltons-eye/

    Well, you don't see that everyday...a left hook after a panhandle landfall.

    You know it's quiet on the weather front when there's a full blown conversation about heat pumps and solar panels and not much else that day...
