just went out and shoveled a path to the stairs and it's definitely concrete, measured almost 4 though, can't imagine much more falling as radar looks like garbage upstream
-
was there any lightening reports around Winsted Torrington area? I swear I heard a rumble, but I saw nothing and thought it was plow, but it was different... little lull right now but just before it, it was a good burst, I measured 1.4 at 1015
-
you guys got me at the window waiting for thunder now, it wouldn't surprise me with how hard it's snowing right now, Jesus! edit: just measured an inch otg.
-
thanks, that's what I like to hear
-
has that sleet line progressed at all? I don't have weathertap, my sub ran out the other day so I'm relegated to wunderground radar. just took a quick measure and it was .8 so far and still SN+, my 1/4mi marker has disappeared..
-
roads are fully covered now, as is that spot I shoveled about 20min ago, vis is way down, although the growth is not as good as before, flake size little smaller, but still wow, impressed
-
yeah, I just heard the plow go by on 8, seriously it's barely covered
-
is that weenie mt tolland??
-
not sure if this pic does any justice, but...
-
absolutely pouring snow right now, this was 10 minutes ago, over 1/2" already and under 1/4mi vis, nice winds too
-
yeah, I'm impressed how hard it came in and stayed if not gotten heavier... closing on 1/2" on the board, just coating on roads and driveway
-
almost on the nose with 830...vis down to just over 1/4 here atm, nice growth too, and everything coated, except roads
-
some nice looking returns downstream, looking like it's filling in also, decent breeze here too, 11, gusting near 20 in the last hour
-
ALY had this area starting between 6-8, later further N and E...
-
ripping pretty good here now, starting to stick to the driveway, hope yet...vis just over 1/2mi, if we can pound 1/4mi with good growth here for a few hours, we should be ok to at least hit 4".
-
38/22 now ..felt the first drop of something, we gon start an obs thread, or just post em here? -
apparently snowing over head here, nothing falling yet, 38/20, wetbulb around 28...
-
ALY afternoon AFD suggested the 700 warm tongue gets as far north as the VT/MA border with mostly sleet, and ZR for my hood up to maybe PIT, I'll take pingers, I loathe ZR though
-
man, can I buy 60 miles! always amazed me just how different the weather can be in the northeast, only a few miles can determine a foot or 4" of snow, minus the big region wide KU events that get every in on the goods. Really noticed just how much when I moved to Winsted from Waterbury, avg like 30" more a year, and Norfolk probably gets a good 10" more than I, and I can walk there in about an hour or so... crazy
-
meh for my area, nice SVT and north of ALY though, should cash nicely in up there

thanks Will, I've never really dug into how the sounding plots really work, suppose I should get into it, useful info.what determines where the DGZ is, is it always at the same level, or does it change based on the lift, and dynamics of the levels? sorry for the elementary questions, just trying to get a grip on what I see.
-
I've been wondering same... had me with about 10" leading up to yesterday where it began dropping now at 5".
-
I've always struggled trying to decipher soundings, don't we want the dgz to be around the 700mb level for best snow growth? and does the temp line go up to the right or left? tia for the lesson
-
probably best this is happening overnight, honestly if it was during the day it'd probably be rain, only good thing I see until this starts to wrap around close, by that time though I think it's too far east, hopefully I'm wrong.

was just looking through some old pics with my son who's now 11, think it was the winter of 13-14, could have been the next year, but man did we have some massive man size snow piles on the side of the driveway, taller than I, with me and him trying to make an igloo, hopefully next year we can get back to that type of pack
