Brian,  I was paying more attention to the snow squalls vs how cold this air mass is.  It seems like last night's cold over preformed.  Was that true?   0F here but snowcover must helped.

1989 I think

It might have been 1989.  I had just bought my fixer-upper house up here but lived in Boston.  I had something called a Climate talker.  It was hooked up to my phone line and I could call long distance and get the outside temperature.  I believe it was below zero about 12 nights in that December.  When winters used to be real.

Extreme snow squall in progress.  Captured this image from my neighbor's webcam.  Right now vis is 1/16th of a mile.  When I can't see the other side of my pasture we know that heavy rates are happening.

Nice Gene your white Christmas is a lock this year. Enjoy. Pics??

  No wind,  powdery snow.  Easy pessy!   6.75"

25.1F Light snow.  5.5"

25F  Moderate snow  Vis est 3/4 miles.  Better snow growth than earlier.  About 4" fluff

24.2F  Light snow.  Vis est 3/4 mile.  About 2" new

20.2F  Light snow vis  1 mile.  Poor snow growth.  Expecting maybe 7 or 8?

30.2F Light snow  1"  Vis est 1.5 miles

28.2F Light snow.   Maybe 1/3"  of dry snow

31.9F Light snow vis 1.5 miles 

33.9F  Light snow.  Vis about 1 mile

31.9F sleet

31.5/23F  With these temperatures, I don't see any rain for the vast majority of this system.  Maybe lots of sleet or freezing rain but CAD at the surface almost always wins.  Snow at the begining,  IDK?

Update…thanks everyone, but it just died. It must’ve had some bad lower internal injuries. I had it in a box for a few hours and it didn’t pee or poop once. I put it back out into the woods to reenter the circle of life.

Brian,  I just saw this post.  Sorry.  I would have not been able to have helped you anyhow, as i don't know any rehab people.   I hate to see animals suffer.  Last month I had to drive to PA and on the interstate a hawk flew right in front of the car into the grill.  I still think about that.

Mood flakes yesterday and light snow the past 3 hours around 33F.  Still waiting for our first trace.  We did have a dusting in shaded areas for about an hour yesterday before sublimation.  Does that count?

Clouds will be the problem over the next 48 hours especially in Central and NNE.  

33.9F Moderate catpaws

33.6F  Light rain mixed with mangled flakes.  No sleet just rain and a few parachutes.

Probably graupel/small hail?

This is probably the heaviest burst of rain I had all warm season.

Well it was definitely pretty large ice pellets. I didn't see any lightning or hear thunder and really didn't look at radar closely so I wasn't sure but now that I see Alex had a thunderstorm it was definitely convective

47F  Just had a quick heavy shower with lots of sleet.

That's some of the first video I have seen in the landfall zone. You can tell by how the trees were snapped and the overturned vehicles that extreme winds were experienced. 

The video with all the trees stripped was from Bluefields organic blueberry farm.  They are 1/2 mile inland on a hill.  The towns around them must be wiped off the map.

If I ever had that chance I would have my drone for the eye to punch above any low clouds to get the stadium.

Long time no see.... Yup, that would be a drone video that has never been done and it would go viral.
