  1. Some of us are trying to claw and scratch our way to 20 in for the season. Don't be a negative Nancy, its not a good look.
  2. This is all a bummer. I didn't expect much but thought an inch or two tonight then a few Saturday followed by much And we'd have a net gain....even that's too much to hope for
  3. So then a few inches of snow first on Saturday is off the table ? Or it doesn't matter since it all gets washed away. Early next week looks frigid geez
  4. My point and click has rain changing to snow and back to rain so many times over the weekend. I feel dizzy.
  5. I lived in Bristol CT during that event. We had a lot of thunder and lightning later in the evening I don't remember much about flakes size but it snowed at least two/hr for several hours with peak rates in the thunder snow reaching three/hr briefly. We picked up 18-19 inches from that and temps were right below 30F . That was man snow. We likely had around 2 inches melted equiv. With the six inch glacier beneath it we averaged just over 2 feet otg. Awesome storm!
  6. I remember well the morning of the Feb 01 storm. The radar just exploding off the NJ Coast. That was the last time I saw Thunder snow in an event.
  7. This event was serious fun up here. 16 inches fell during daylight hours
  8. That was a cool event. It took awhile to get the better snow growth here but once it did we got 18 plus in 6 hours! We ended up with just a shade under two feet. The only bummer about 2/13 was that it happened at night
  9. Maybe we will get a good surprise before winter ends. One can only hope.
  10. I don't think I had four. I'm going with 3.5.....just to our West had that though.
  11. That picture with the sun through the cloud canopy and deep snow cover is just beyond words to me. That is about as beautiful a shot of deep New England winter that I have ever seen.
  12. Looks like about 3 here in the heart of death valley. Light snow/poor growth. About what I expected for here but I am surprised southern CT didn't do better. I really thought it would really rip down there and for longer
  13. Nothing yet. I'm thinking 3 here, maybe 4.
  14. I thought one of the NAMs strengths was thermals.
  15. Interesting Westfield has had a few flurries for over an hour... sometimes there's big differences from there to here...although more often magnified in marginal events
  16. I'm squinting really hard and nothing yet
  17. Nice Teflon crust for the snow to accumulate on. The amount of ice underneath the snow afterwards is a bit concerning though. Could be tough walking around for a few days.
  18. That has happened here so many times. Wouldn't shock me in the least.
  19. The thump was just a gentle tap ...one inch Nice crust on it and plenty of slip sliding for the walking folk. All those who forecasted meh for a decent portion of the area....well done! Maybe I will take a ride to Greenfield to see deep winter
  20. Exactly! Longmeadow or East Longmeadow spotless.....Springfield...forget it What you described in West Hartford, I grew up with in Bristol CT
  21. Remember though Springfield is notoriously poor at efficient snow and ice removal. Gets almost the least snow and has the worst road conditions.
