Connecticut Appleman

This thing is really cruising. Radar starting to shred in southern NJ and SE PA.

It has improved - for a while it was baking powder.

Down to 30 - hopefully snow growth improves otherwise it will never cover the grass.

If we can get into some heavy snow for a little while the way the wind is blowing - that could be awesome.

The transition to snow has begun.

Sticking with seasonal persistence, there is no way we end up with more than 5 inches

Just pinging here. at 32 and the wind is starting to crank.

We might have hit 6 inches once, but we have really struggled to get past 5 inches in virtually every event which is probably where we will end up tonight.

Just under 5 inches here in New Hartford. 5 Inches has been a popular storm total here all winter.

Nammy showing signs of life for Wednesday event. Not expecting much here for tonight.

We did exactly that with the high efficiency boiler and the whole house generator.

Built a house a couple of years ago. We buried 2 - 1,000 gallon propane tanks (which we own) and paid for partial depth spray foam insulation then fiberglass on top of that. We heat using hydronic radiant heat for whole house - much lower temperatures coming off the boiler which makes it more efficient. I can't complain, over the last year we used a little more than 800 gallons of propane and just got a fill up for $2.13 a gallon last week. My wife did not want to do the spray foam for $4k - she is very happy with it now. If you are building a house, it is well worth spending the cash for efficiency upgrades. Many of the upgrades can't be done after the fact.

This thing is cruising. It will done here in another hour or so.

Flakage getting that look like sleet is getting close here in New Hartford. Eyeballing 3-4 inches right now.

And it ends with a blue sky.

Just got a lot more interesting and the wind is cranking. Too bad it will be so short lived.

Snowing here to your south, but not anything crazy.

Line starting to get that magical parting look to it as it enters CT. Not liking the trajectory of the parting. Looks to be heading straight towards me.

We have the temperature but I fear once again the moisture will be lacking unless there is one more NW push.

A positive bust would be most welcome. Seems like a very long time since that has happened.

I think that is the tag line of this winter.

Temp has shot up quickly here. Went fro 21 degree to 30 in 3 hours.

Not that it matters one bit to the outcome, but it will be interesting if Albany adds Litchfield County tomorrow AM (not currently in the Advisory in Litchfield County).

I'm beginning feel like the WOR crowd is on the island of misfit weenies. A coastal takes a favorable track and we might be able to squeak out an inch or so. Can't even hit advisory levels in CT.

Is the Nammy going to pique my curiosity only to not have any cold air to work with? Most likely a non-event, but slightly more interested. Edit - cold enough in SNE.
