  1. About done here. Temp creeping up to freezing and a few pingers/drops mixing in. Just a hair over 9”...pretty much in line with expectations.
  2. Really seems to be the sweet spot. Looks like some bright banding just to the south. Lot of reports of sleet from Bucks/Montgomery county and down into Philly.
  3. Around 5" here now. Went for a walk in the height of it...1.5"/hr rates, <1/4 mile visibility. What's not to love? Intensity down a little bit now.
  4. Should pick up soon once you start getting into those 25-30dbz returns.
  5. Really takes a true weenie to keep up with the clearing in amounts like that. I couldn't even convince my dad to move his snow stake from the porch to the yard after just an inch of snow there yesterday. Not only is his stake placement bad but it only goes to 24"...good chance depth exceeds that especially once you factor in the drifting off the roof.
  6. Man that's some death band back across I-78 in NJ...pushing 60dbz. Can easily see how someone ends up with 30" whereever that thing stalls and rots out.
  7. My parents are in Allentown PA...looking like they could easily surpass 2'. Already over 6" and heaviest banding still on the way.
  8. Have gone from light to mod snow here in the past 30 minutes. Probably pushing 3" otg. heaviest still yet to come.
  9. The thump is really hauling ass on the V16. Gonna be tough to surpass 12” for most of CT unless we really go to town for those few hours.
  10. Don’t think it’s been quite that long...I imagine Feb 2013 crept in but my memory is terrible for those types of details. Of course PDII was on a whole other level.
  11. When was the last time we saw a storm coming in at such a crawl? Where it’s snowing in NYC but will be another 10-12 hours before precip makes it to Hartford?
  12. Totally agree. They used to be much more conservative 10+ years ago. But more recently they love going balls to the wall and end up busting more often than not. Down this way I feel 12” is out ceiling, I’m think 6-10” shoreline east of HVN. 8-14” for the majority of the state...pocket of 12-18” for the SW/NE corners.
  13. This event blows. I even had low expectations and figured there was a good chance we might struggle for more than an inch down this way...now wondering even we can even manage 1/2”.
  14. Christmas fire will have to wait here, too warm in the house. But Bullet dodged here wrt the wind, so I’m happy. Merry Christmas everyone!
  15. 60.1 here...up 30 from this time yesterday. Good times. Hear the roaring overhead. Also hoping for an under-performer...3-4 miles from the shoreline...not sure if it’s close enough for the inversion to save us.
  16. Ended up around 7" here. A little bummed we didn't make a run on double digits. I knew we were gonna slot, but really thought the front end would perform a little better. But at least happy to have a warning event not ending in slop and that will stick around a few days. 30F was the high around 5-6am...back down to 22F now. Also first time (and likely the last time) in my life I'm jealous to not be living in Binghamton.
  17. Moderate here now with heavy banding on the doorstep. 24F
  18. Flakes started about 5 min ago. 25.9F/16.0F
  19. that's what I was getting a bit paranoid about yesterday. but I think we're looking good for a solid 8-10" before any dryslot/mixing issues. I can live with that
  20. I'm expecting some pings here in Clinton. It's not all bad...gives the pack a little more staying power
  21. snowing on LI...looks like could have some flakage here in the next hour or so...a couple hours ahead of schedule.
  22. 27F/9.5F...dewpoint slowly creeping up the last couple of hours. Let's get this thing started!
  23. No...I was starting to grow a bit wary even yesterday that things were starting to tick north on some of the models. Euro included. Very subtle ticks but still enough lead time to be concerning.
  24. To be clear...I never expect to jackpot here. I'm always cautious when models show it even when it's the Euro showing it day after day leading up to the event. Never doubted a trend to more amped or more suppressed. But really thought we had at least enough wiggle room to avoid a mixing scenario. Here's to hoping some of these solutions are overdoing it.
