  1. I'm going to put this here although it could easily go in this weekends storm thread 60-72 hrs lead issuing WSW region wide???? For a decent duration six inch plus event?? Maybe for the folks mid Atlantic and into the TN valley and OHIO valley and south....esp in regards to icing Still 2 full days for changes..it does sound miserably cold regardless Have we not learned anything from early March 2001?
  2. At least 1.5 last night but it may have been closer to 2. That was a cute little event. Took a beating down here in the tropics this afternoon as we soared into the lower 40s.
  3. With weekend event and one little event up to 17.8 for the season not counting tonight.
  4. Nice steady light snow This afternoon at 230 pm the car thermometer read 11 degrees and there was a respectable Southerly wind blowing making it feel much colder Lowest I saw in my travels was 1 degree early this morning out in Wilbraham. What a frigid mid winter day!
  5. I was ten years old and I lived in central Connecticut. I remember getting out of school to a lead grey overcast....no dim sun that Friday afternoon. Before I went to bed Hilton was on the news up in the helicopter saying there would be two to four inches of snow as we would be getting a glancing blow. My mom had called earlier from Port Chester NY telling of more than six inches of snow already and it just looked like thick fog outside. I woke up early at six am Saturday morning and it was winding down but we were buried. Both my Dad and Grandpa said a good two feet. Charlie Bagley was on the radio saying the area received 18 to 24 inches of snow. For days he was in the same camp as Hilton so he quickly went on to talk about how quickly it would be ending lol. The day turned out beautiful with bright sunshine and milder temps up to around 32 in the afternoon. The piles were insane. I wish I had been a little older because I would've stayed up and watched it all night. .
  6. 4 Saturday and 2.3 Sunday/early Monday....6.3 for weekend event Very nice
  7. Nice currier and ives past couple hours. At least an inch new. Cleaned up Saturdays stuff which got a little messy looking yesterday in the afternoon
  8. Yikes!!! On Pt 1....Fog. Haze and snow flurries with putrid growth. Can't even call it a dusting with a good conscience. Thank goodness for yesterday but was really looking forward to an inch or two of slowly accumulating mood snow during daylight hours.
  9. I checked in this morning and it looked like a last minute hail Mary might be in the works region wide with much of the 6z suite but I guess that unraveled right on schedule later on. Glad today worked out here in death valley.
  10. Almost all the roads from one end of Springfield to the other were like that when I came home from Ludlow today.
  11. Biggest event of the season so far....solid 4 inches ....couple bursts in part 2 meant business
  12. Dim sun against the solid overcast but its a classic winter look and its so very welcome
  13. I'm going to go with that. It felt like a bit more than an inch. I was surprised. Pretty uniform all across the area.
  14. How's all your snow been this week? Seemed on the mild side but we know anything is possible at 1k in Tolland CT
  15. The point and click seemed kind of tame with modest rain and snow chances and Southerly winds so I figured there wasn't much going on.
  16. Well whoever was in charge of the January thaw this weekend should be on probation because it didn't get nicer out even down here in the tropics until a few hours ago.
  17. I was only about six to eight miles west of a solid foot. I recorded eight inches total which included about an inch and a half ull stuff Mon night. Average forecast around here was 18-20 inches. I would've been ok with a foot and a few hours of heavy falling snow with decent growth.
  18. There was some crazy weather in the Northeast and eastern Ohio valley that winter for sure
  19. I remember some brutal cold days that winter, complete with plenty of wind too. Pretty sure that was the winter we had a tremendous amount of sleet and temps in the ten degree range after about six inches of Arctic sand with one event
  20. .3 Sunday and .1 today brings us to 11.2 for the season so far.....lots of cold days and lots of days with a couple inches Otg Pretty wintry period. I guess its fitting this system would wind down as a period of snow today.
  21. Chunks of icy snow and little beads of sleet in East Longmeadow at work. Wiz has snow just north of here.... Didn't see any mention of that in the point and click. Nice glaze on sidewalks and driveways this morning. Kind of a wintry system even here just no real significant accums but enough to be slick.
