Winchester center reading 37, but my station has been at 30 all morning, either I need a new station or cold has locked in this little area, win center is up above 1100' if I'm not mistaken, I'll tell you what, it's a sheet of ice everywhere from deck to driveway, nearly bought it letting out the chickens

Absolutely no need for those conditions... Terrible DPW management!

every year they're out there throwing sparks at nothing, but the other night didn't see a plow until well after midnight, they're out now slipping and sliding up the hill trying to treat it, waste time and resources early and if we have a rough winter cry about budget in February they're out of sand and salt etc...btw, still 30 and pretty steady ZR here now, my station needs new batteries so closest one will have to due 

deck is a sheet of ice here, hoping temps rise overnight, we have work and places to go, this is the one thing I don't like about winter weather...ZR!

29 and rain has started here...

I have friends of kids I coached in and around that area that don't report but all were 9.5-10.5", probably 6 so far of the people I know over there

Connecticut Snowfall Totals. This is just a first pass map, there will be a more complete one coming with a full SNE map when i get some time over the next day or two. If there are any additional reports or errors let me know and ill look into it and fix them. Thanks to everyone who sent a report. Overall the forecast was very solid. Pretty much everyone fell within the ranges and the ranges were appropriate for CT. A little too high for Hartford, Tolland counties but that's about it, ill have a full picture once all the maps are done but m feeling an A- ish.

 

good call, nice rippage around North New Milford Kent area, lots of double digit reports from there, buddy in new Preston scored 10" as well 

nice swath of 8-10 from POU down towards Middletown seems like 5/6 on either side of where that band puked for a couple hours 

6 will do it here storm total, not bad considering 5 of it came in the first 2.5 hours, now to clean!

Been watching Stranger Things so snow started sometime in the last hour, but it's quickly covered everything.

1/2 S

ha we're doing a marathon from the beginning again too, on season 3, my streaming service has to wait a couple days for the ones that came today...any still steady SN, and cold, looks like something filling in NE from ALY keeps reforming mini bands, not like earlier tho, that was 2-3"/hr stuff, vis never got over 1/4mi since onset.

nice little reinforcement band overhead, picked up nicely with great growth for a bit, west seems to be backfilling some, whether it stays together is the question 

lightened up quite a bit but at about 5.5" out there, I'll do an official at 1230, should be close to over by then I figure

At 5”. Been snowing just  two hours now. 

can confirm, just measured right at 5", first flakes 1830hrs, nice!!

man it's at least 4" now, has been pounding for two hours, I'm surprised no reports of thunder snow, seems like some serious lift and rates just about from Westchester to my area.

choking snow out there, about 1.5 since first flake at 630, vis is about 1/10 mile and get less I can barely see the street lights a few hundred feet away right now.

basically went to almost white out, however snow growth is a little iffy atm, but if it snows like this for a few hours we'll get there, need some bigger dendies mixing in.

flakeage... you can see the heavy rates on CC, pretty cool 

21/4 nada here yet, looks like pound town SW of my area tho.

man this is going to be a cold one, if it's snowing in Greenwich at 23/14, that's some good rates.

23/0 here with lowering clouds, have to overcome the dry air before it comes down, I think we're going to wind up with two bands, one major and a secondary NE of the main one, who's in between is sucking exhaust imho... we'll see how it pans out, point and click has me at 9 now and ALY right there too, up from 5 yesterday.. go time!

Couple of thoughts... I don't like warnings being issued for zones when the low end number in the forecast is less than warning criteria... Both high & low numbers in the forecast range should equal or exceed the warning criteria. Just my opinion.  Secondly, in this type of setup we are likely to see several mini maxes zones; western Fairfield cty, especially high terrain areas in Ridgefield / Danbury zone (overall greatest totals); another area of local enhancement from from high terrain areas of southern Litchfield cty into western Hartford cty, into northern / western New Haven cty; lastly another local max zone likely showing up in northern Tolland cty.  

I agree with the low end criteria for warning at least being met for one to be hoisted, however I think it's because there may be so many people traveling, especially 84-81 and points west and south, maybe they want to get attention, a watch may be just ignored, just my thoughts on the reasoning 

ALY took em up over an inch since the 1245 update to warning.
