BC built a new softball/baseball complex behind the Seminary on Lake St a few years ago. Really nice fields too as they just hosted the ACC Softball championship. The softball program isn't that great, but they try hard and it's a fun watch for an impressionable 10u player. We're supposed to play at Cold Spring Sunday, but that field takes a while to dry out, so we'll see. Oh yeah back on topic. 64* with clear skies and it's less humid out. Didn't seem smoky around the moon, but we'll see tomorrow?

Yep, just in time for daughter's softball all-star game too. Thanks to some connections in the league, we played at Boston College and managed to get 2.5 innings in before home plate and the pitching area became a quagmire. (Outfield is turf, so no issues there.) Everyone had fun though and got at least one at-bat, but it would have been nice to be able to finish the game now since the rain has pretty much stopped.

Getting some under the radar drizzle/showers at kids soccer game in Newton. Hope the heavy stuff holds off until after 4:00, have an important outdoor event later....

I just checked the semi-dark spot near me where I took the photos last year, but there are too many clouds around.

Yeah, this afternoon/ early evening is really nice. Gets the drying out process going so hopefully fields will dry out for sports tomorrow.

Had a slushy coating here that's mostly gone now.

Just about all snow and accumulating on unpaved surfaces. 34*

Just took the dog out and it's a rain/snow mix in Newtonville.

Either sleet or really small hail in Newtonville.

A few pingers mixed in here in Newton.

Just took our new pup out and there was a definitely a little sleet mixed in here in Newton.

Thought I had a few flakes mixing in with the drizzle and light rain a few moments ago driving around Newton.

Under a heavier echo now, sounds like there's a little sleet mixed in? Still at 34*

Good morning from Newtonville. Looks to be around 5" or so. 34* here, so anything else will be rain. Going to be a pain to shovel later, I'm sure.

Out in Coolidge Corner and it started snowing.

Yeah, the bonus fluff this morning got us here close to 5" or so.

Eyeballing around 4". Maybe we can get a little more from that band as it rotates southward. Not quite an outright bust as 4-8 was the P&C forecast yesterday, but still disappointing to be on the low end.

Heavy snow, 28*, and closing in on 2" in Newtonville. (Not sure when it started snowing. fell asleep on the couch watching TV...) This thing is hauling on radar, not sure how we get to the upper end of the forecast range.

Sleet in Newtonville. I don't think even that'll last long as temps up to 31.3*.

Seems to be barely snowing. Going to be a lot of angry parents today...

Yeah, snow grown hass gotten worse and visibility has increased after I posted. Roads barely covered once salt is put down.

1/2S with decent flakes coming down. Everything is coated. 27.3*

Yep. Just started a moment ago. 25.8*

Bah. It was supposed to be a 1/2 day today in Newton and since the kids would be going home during the "height" of the storm, they've cancelled school. I mean, the radar looks ok, but thing seems to be hauling right along.
