Coming down decently and the road looks like crap.

I'm def. with Kevin on the nuisance snow being more coveted in the first half of the season, though.....def different vibe in Dec/Jan.

So true. Pre-Christmas Currier and Ives stuff is awesome. This is a total drag.

I didn't either. I was far too socially inept in HS.

Same. Seems like a common theme among AMWX posters. 

On topic, intensity has picked up but still nothing to write home about. 

Some decent dendrites mixing in but it's still a very light snow.

Ripping 4 sm vis -SN. Heavy coating.

Where is it placed on current guidance?

Tolland County, CT

Sun is peaking through now. Dimly.

Very fine weenie flakes here too.

10-12

Flakes up here tomorrow afternoon. Days and days. 

Epic scheduling clownshow down there today, but, good news is that a shitload of high risk people are going to be vaccinated within the next month or so. This thing is on its way out. 

1-3'' is my final call for here and 3'' might be ambitious. 

Round 1 looks like dog crap on the HRRR. Glorified whiff N of the Pike through the early AM tomorrow. 

Sweet little weenie band near MMK. Bet it's ripping parachutes in that band.

12z NAM looks a lot like the Euro up here. Rug pulled on the Friday night CF enhancement look it had 06z. 

I guess 2-4'' here over the span of 36 hours? As far as impact forecasting I guess roads might be slick Thursday night into Friday morning but the Naperuary sun and treatment should take care of anything that falls Friday.

Damn, I still have like 7-8" of crust.

Yeah Monday didn't do all that much to the pack here. It's stubborn.

George is Dr. Dew's cold weather troll account.

I see right thru him. He hates the kids always inside and him having to watch them . He longs for the days when he can just send them outside all day and he knows how far away that is. So he just comes on here and acts like grumpy 85 year old . 

Hell I feel cooped up inside all day every day, then go outside after work and at best it's cold with dim sun every day. Would be much more tolerable with travel and normal activities.

He used to jump all over people for rushing spring at work. Welcome to backdoor season "this is what you all wanted", not sure what's happened to him recently. 

Yeah with all the Napril talk we kind of forget how much Napril usually blows. 

The Navy must've contracted George to keep running the NOGAPS out of his mom's basement. He must be looking at different output than we are.

the NAVGEM doesn't show anything remotely close to a blizzard

18-24'' on the NOGAPS though.

Yeah I wasn't kidding when I said I've enjoyed this winter. I got my big dog, torched it away in a week, avoided big cold, and other than yesterday we've pretty much avoided the glop events. Winter is long here and it's nice to have one that feels a little shorter. Hopefully we can start warming it up a bit in March.

Yeah I'm over it too. If winter could be one biggie and 55F and dry the rest of the time I'd be ecstatic. 30F and dry with 1-3'' every 5 days is getting old fast. 

The negativity regarding this winter as a whole is kind of surprising to me. We've gotten a couple double digit snows and several refreshers, and it feels like it hasn't gone above 40 since November outside of the grinch storm. Pretty wintry winter IMO. 

NAM is like two tenths here over the span of 24 hours. #nape

So my wife started to get sick last Thursday... lost taste and smell sat night... got a pcr and rapid Sunday morning. Rapid was positive... we are assuming pcr will be as well, but still waiting on result. She has had mild flu like symptoms since.

I woke up with body aches and a headache today, so I went to get tested... both pcr and rapid. My rapid was surprisingly negative, obviously still waiting on the pcr.

Can anyone speak to the accuracy of a negative rapid test for me based on this timeline?

I got a rapid a little while ago and they said that if symptoms started day of it might be too early for the rapid to pick it up. The PCR should though.
