Looks like a band is trying to regenerate over us as the other weakens over SE CT. I like seeing that. Wonder if we get some convergence with the western CT band and then it rots as it moves east.

At 11" as of 9:15. Pretty significant gradient too. I'm at 11 and there's a report of 11 in Manchester in that 9am hour, while just to my north in South Windsor they have a report of 7.5 and just of that Enfield to SW corridor Ellington and Vernon are at double digits. Models were deadly with that shadowing effect. Picking back up down this way too. Trying at least. HFD was very very close. Hit it at the 7:53 and 8:53am obs, but not 9:53. Not sure if they'd count any of the 5 min obs in that hour. Doubt it. Thanks. I consider myself very lucky. Hopefully we can all get a couple as this rotates out. We still have a few hours to go.

WPC has 968 as of 12z. https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/#page=sfc

And that's all we need. Keep piling up whatever we can with the time we have left.

Someone posted about the pressure earlier?

16 will be tough. I'm just glad I should be able to go over 12". HFD has been gusting good. Might fall just short of blizzard criteria with that 9:50am report.

Haven't seen you post all winter. Glad to see you posting and hope all is well. Yeah, hard to imagine that MA action coming too far west at this point, but the stuff in western CT still looks solid to me. Hopefully that can migrate east later and give us a few more inches of backside fluff. I'm in a minimum, but as I thought it's not as bad as it could be. Did a couple mile walk around the neighborhood in the last hour or so. I'm at 11" here as of 9:15. Drifts between 18-24". Good gusts, low viz, great storm.

What do you think of hi res like the HRRR trying to eject a band west back this way later in the morning/afternoon?

We knew the risks here, though it seems like my area is just enough south to escape the worst of it. Let's see what this jebwalk looks like though.

21G40 at HFD--SN, blowing snow, and FZFG

Not that I'm a fan of the high res right now, but the HRRR continues this idea of another mod/heavy band ejecting west into CT in the early afternoon.

Not as prolific as it sounds like it is for Kev but we're probably doing a little better than we otherwise would due to that.

Feel good about it except here. But need to head back out and measure.

Yassss LFG

Will easily top those numbers in much of CT. Closer call here in the CTRV.

Worst conditions of the storm ironically despite the radar. HFD also reporting under 1/4 viz. Frequent strong gusts.

There it is. First light.

Because that's just how people are.

Jim Cantore basically said he was naked outside with arms open begging for TSSN

You and me both. The wind is really ripping here now. Very low visibility.

Deeply skeptical of HRRR but that would be good for much of CT.

HFD putting up a 51 is insane to me.

Wow BDL G54

I need something to rot here. We're ripping, but snow growth is just ok. HFD 28G51 FZFG .25 viz Now that's impressive.

Looks like a gravity wave rolled right through there before it opened up.
