  1. I guess part me of is happy we didn't get slammed with snow here. A friend of mine directed me to someone who was selling a store authentic Charlie Mcavoy jersey. I could have either participated in bidding or buy it outright for $120. Considering they go for $250+ in the store I bought outright. Hoping to get it today and the snow would have negated that.
  2. Cold air really held strong in the Valley's. Really sucks how the storm evolution played out. We were not far off from a pounding.
  3. Flakes!!! distinct flakes now!!! Still a mix but getting towards the big fatties stage. Woohoooo
  4. It's becoming more snow...I think, unless my eyes are playing tricks. Come on change...please change. Still mostly rain though b/c I can see the pavement being pelted with rain.
  5. Heavier rates now and definitely getting snow mixing in...but its fake flakes b/c they're legit almost fully melted. I bet if I climbed the giant pine tree in the back it would be snow at the top of it.
  6. Up in Litchfield County...I think they have elevation too there.
  7. I think it's now trying to flip to snow here!!!!! Thank you CEF obs!!!
  8. CEF is 34 reporting a rain/snow mix. Nothing but anger provoking rain drops here. The kind that disguise themselves as fine little snow grains but you go outside and its fooking liquid rain.
  9. I really want to close my curtains. It's depressing looking outside seeing RAIN falling. Actually the stupid weather thing at the bottom of my computer says HEAVY SLEET...torture. It's a stupid, downpour of cold rain. I'd rather just lay down in a parking lot next to a parking garage and have drunk people piss on me.
  10. Friend of mine got about 1/8th of an inch of ice in Northfield
  11. Can also switch over to mesoanalysis. Two things to watch for a big thump tonight 1) Strong llvl WAA 2) Strong frontogenesis right on the leading edge:
  12. No problem, just my quick assessment. I'm leaning towards a flip back over to snow during the very late afternoon or early evening there. It will be super interesting there, especially since the depth of the warmer layer is quite shallow.
  13. Looks to be eyeing on stronger lift within the DGZ zone. I don't totally buy an all snow-event for Portland though given some onshore flow and temps spiking up a bit, however, during bursts of stronger lift there could be flips to heavy snow or at least a mix. I think though rain could quickly flip to snow moving into evening as winds become more NE.
  14. 12z NAM bufkit for BDL. I kinda find it hard to believe ptype is rain around 6z. This also matches what the SREF has for a decent thump
  15. Sometimes these SHARPpy soundings can also be a bit wonky with their outputs too.
  16. Holy crap...that is a great sounding. Some of the soundings were showing potential for a pretty solid thump which lead to to think 2-4'' for northern half of Connecticut. I really hope that verifies.
  17. At least with 18z data yesterday it was tough to find that outside of southern Vermont down into the Berkshires and into extreme northwest Connecticut.
  18. One thing that makes me nervous (especially with my forecast for northern Connecticut) in the thump zones is the majority of the stronger lift is well above the DGZ. With a marginal profile (well boundary layer), even with the more intense lift it could be difficult to get much snow. Could be dealing with crappy flakes size and horrific ratios. Have to check some bufkit soundings a bit more in-depth but I would imaging ratios could be as bad as like 6:1
  19. This is a fantastic spot for the Berkshires. Not so great just west of them in the Hudson Valley lol. One thing to really watch is the decaying CCB...some signals this could continue to ail the Berkshires well into Friday night.
  20. The Berkshires are going to get destroyed. Essentially the Berkshires is the rest of the NHL and this storm is the Bruins. Wish you could easily animate this but a single-frame will have to do but it's just consistent intense lift...plus when you factor in an upslope flow. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few 18-24'' totals there
