    25/24/N/SN Well I finally got in on the game. It snowed pretty hard for a few hours and I'm close to 4" now.
  2. gravitylover
    Tpalm, are you new around here? Welcome. After my last bitch about getting shafted it started snowing, then it snowed harder and for a pretty long time. I haven't been out but it looks like at least 3" and may be closer to 4.

    I'm another 15-20 miles or so north of you and unless it's snowing fairly hard the main streets are staying mostly wet but the side streets are white. I had a short burst of SN+ a little while ago but with the wind I'm still under 1" for the event. Blah...

    Since the beginning of the event I have 1/2" of accumulated frozen grey matter with a white frosting on it bringing it to 2/3" since the beginning of the storm. It's snowing nicely at the moment but it still tiny grains, flakes and cylinders so it's not adding up quickly.

    Alright I'm gonna get ripped for my misread but I'm jumping in. It looks like a redevelopment due to the southern low swinging around and merging with the upper level low as it comes off the coast. I think it's a bit optimistic because there isn't much holding it back from scooting out and taking it's energy with it. Ya gotta appreciate the enthusiasm though. Thanks Doorman. Now have at it and tell me how wrong I am

    Score

    Well at least the temp is starting to come down just a little bit. None of the local stations seem to have recorded winds or precip since early this morning, must all be frozen. It really doesn't look like there's much chance of getting anything that counts tonight, it all looks to be Berks and Catskills on the radar and I bet it will just pull out to the east rather than swinging through. I sure won't complain if I pull a few inches but I'm not expecting it. For all the hype and hassle I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up with about 1 inch. Blah... At least it will get cold tomorrow night and firm things up nicely making for a fun early morning ride on Wednesday.

    It didn't do me any good today at 700 feet. Unless something special happens this goes down as 1/2" of frozen grey matter with a snowy frosting.

    ^^I want one so bad

    30/29/ENE freezing mist and snow grains. I have a little over a half inch of frozen material since the beginning of the event that's slowly getting covered with snow. Everything is coated in .2-.3" of ice. You know that crackly sound you get under high power lines? That's what it sounds like outside.

    I've been in that zone since yesterday. I'm 500 yards from the Westchester line. Not me, I have a combined .5" of ice and frozen white stuff from yesterday and today.
  12. gravitylover
    The snow is still less than 2 miles from me while I sit here with .5" of frozen grey matter coating everything.

    Another useless storm day. It looks like it's blossoming on radar and I'm just a few miles NE of the goods. Oh well, less to clean up right?
  14. gravitylover
    I've had light tiny flakes for a few hours now. It's not accumulating really but it is doing a decent job of hiding the .3" of ice coating everything. I'm literally right at the edge of the blossom occuring on the radar.
  15. gravitylover
    What has been a really light steady snow for the last little bit just ramped up nicely. Maybe I'll finally get over 1" now. It kinda sux when you go over a day of rotten weather and have so little to show for it.
  16. gravitylover
    Power is back on 30 with light snow covering and hiding the ice.
  17. gravitylover
    Of course I mentioned ice Transformer popped a little while ago and the power is out
  18. gravitylover
    Well that was pretty disappointing. I've got less than a half inch of rock solid grey stuff on most flat surfaces, what's not grey is clear. I don't even want to take the garbage out. Icicles are 1" long on branches and power lines. Tomorrow isn't looking too good either. On the upside the hype was enough to get me to clean things up so I could shovel and to secure all the lightweight stuff around the yard somewhat. My kids go to West Conn in Danbury and surprisingly they haven't canceled yet.

    Still 30/29 but the precip has stopped. Unfortunately not before .2-.3 of ice built up. The wind kicked up pretty good for a little while as it stopped raining but it's gone calm now.
  20. gravitylover
    It's been raining for hours with a few periods of sleet and white rain mixed in. Everything was frozen before it all started so the lower layer is solid ice and now it's accreting well on everything with icicles about an inch long on the power line to the house. I probably should have thought to get gas for the generator and test run it yesterday huh. Damn...
  21. gravitylover
    30/29/E6/RN+ The icicles on the power line to my house are about 1" long now and everything is a crunchy frozen mess. I'm thinking it's time to get dressed and go get gas for the generator
  22. gravitylover
    Yup rain with some sleet mixed in at 27°
  23. gravitylover
    27/26/ESE6/RN-ZR-Sleet
  24. gravitylover
    Precip seems to have stopped. I've got about a half inch of mixed frozen stuff on the ground.
  25. gravitylover
    What a mix out there. It was heavy wind driven snow for a while then flipped to heavy sleet and now it's both. There are all sorts of flake types and sizes from tiny grains and cylinders to huge parachutes.
