ALY hoisted WWA for here, I'm assuming mostly ice, cause I can't see much white with this

That happened to many people here in town. I know of at least 10. Basement ruined 

no flooding but...3 days and many man hours of chainsawing and patching holes in garage roof from one damn limb that fell just right, so the pain was spread wide... not to mention the foot of snow that was left was reduced to a couple small piles.

The New Years storm has looked terrible for 2 or 3 days now. That’s a big time cutter again I think unless we get a major synoptic change (still plausible but increasingly unlikely) 

It’s amazing how far north that one is progged to warm sector again. That’s what has been weird about these cutters...not that they are simply cutters, we get those relatively frequently early in the season, but that they are literally pushing 50s into Quebec City with zero high pressure at all creating any resistance even in far northern New England. Meanwhile they are causing snow thicknesses deep into northern Mexico...LOL. 

very bizarre pattern indeed

so are we punting the NYE storm? I had hope for that one... seems like the same ole story again, warm wet, cold dry... I would just love one nice big slow mover that lasts for 3 days, sorry for the rant but every time we sniff out something, as we close in it cuts or is fish food... not ready to punt Jan just yet

Congrats? 

4.59" freehold NY...got 2.05" official here, seems on par with the area, temp dropped 15 degrees in the last two hours... highest gust here on my PWS was 53, I'm guessing that was around 3 when the big limb came crashing on the garage... fortunately not major damage

rocking 40+ gusts now... close to 25 sustained... I got my eyes on a couple trees with weak limbs... good luck all

stuck around 55-57 since about 11, sustained at 19 highest gust so far is 32..are those returns over NJ for real because, they've been training over that area for a grip...and that line slicing through VA and NC is pretty intense

Heard from Family in Atlanta and Knoxville and both getting snow right now.

yeah was just gonna post, TN getting it too... meanwhile here in NE....60 and tropical

buddy near the outer banks said they are under tornado warning but can't confirm touchdown, saying it's wild out, on par with tropical storm type weather

some serious radar returns coming up...so far just drizzle and a little wind nothing major, 53 degrees and snow pack disappearing

I am part of a group online and a lot of tree and linesmen have already been preparing for travel to here, if not already here, so hopefully that's a plus, it would really suck to loose power on Xmas, and then the temp dropping after would be even worse...up to 50 now

already 48 here and milky sun, I caught the low level clouds cruising by this morning, I'm sure everyone has received their obligatory call from eversource telling you to expect what we already knew...and then hike rates afterwards to do more infrastructure improvement..

nice little.5" fresher today I see some got a solid advisory event, it's these little events with a few biggins that make a good winter... I just hate storm/cutter/ots/storm... repeat... I'd be happy with one MECS a month to get to climo...btw, did we loose the NYE deal, was looking good for a while now looking like fish food...

My brother's place in the Albany area.  36"+  That bump is his mini-van.

That's what it looked like in 2013 out of my garage...awesomeness! takes forever to clean though

I’m looking around at totals and this was a massive snowstorm even if you totally eliminated that obscene fronto band. Like BOS to ORH to HFD/BDL down to NYC and back across a chunk of PA got double digits. 

But all those 13” and 16” totals all of the sudden look paltry when there’s 33” and 38” and 44” on the same map. 

 

Makes the KU list?

Father took five measurements, average 16.5" storm total...NWS ALY has reports of 16.5 in New Milford and 14 in Torrington, but at 7am.looks just over a foot in Boxboro, but I did not measure with anything, about the same in Marlboro, can anyone close confirm? Looks like my house missed the real goods by about 50 miles, but completely satisfied with 16+...my call of 12-20 statewide for CT looks good except for the SWCT area, looks like they got a bit screwed, but still ended up with a good amount. Awesome start to the season, for my back yard at least, only had 5" from the first two events.

Wife is saying 17+ at the house in Winsted...I have not been out yet in Marlboro, but it looks like around a foot, maybe less, hard to tell lot of drifting.

Rippin Austin Rd Cam I84 Waterbury...

30/18. We snow. My newly set up cam for before and after.

 

You got infrared on that? What brand did you buy, and is it solar& wifi? Only thing I don't like about the one I got is I have to connect to the 2G wifi of my router, instead of the 5G option I usually use. but cannot wait to use it, 360 swivel, and 150 degree eye zone.

Wife says first flakes in Winsted 1940 hrs...looking at CTDOT cams, appears to be ripping pretty good in Danbury and on the 95 corridor...I had to buy a new weather station and got a warranty discount, so I bought a solar wifi camera, but did not have time to install before I came up here for work, wish I did, would like to look at my home and do time lapse etc...can't wait to get it up.

21/13 in Winsted

23/9 here in Marlboro
