  1. Looking at just under an inch so far here in Burlington...
  2. One of our most mid-winter days of the year in western CT... Steady light snow, 17 degrees and all roads covered...
  3. Yep... We were actually pretty geared up for at least scattered events here and adjacent towns. Our high elevations that were locked in solid ice normally would roar, but not this time. DPW guys were calling asking when +40 mph gusts would arrive... They never did!
  4. It was surprisingly uneventful here in Burlington... We had great ice, but mostly bending birches... Best damage appeared to run from Tolland Cty south and east into parts of New London City... My peak wind was only 35 mph... I would normally popped 45 mph in similar setups...
  5. Was following that... Nasty... Ice accumulation can be so amazing, unfortunately heavy icing leads to big headaches and heartbreak.
  6. Last of today's ice pics... Blades of my Rainwise anemometer covered in ice with ice extending outward... Every blade of grass encased in ice and nice ice fan emanating from one of my snow stakes...
  7. I used to come up to this spot to snap pics of lightning, ice and measure snow for years. Once the lot went up for sale, I jumped on it...
  8. It gets better; in the summer when horses are out in the field and they are haying the fields bordering our property... I usually sit on the patio, chew on a piece of straw and spit a lot... lol
  9. Lol... You're right... Has that open prairie look! Sitting at 1140' with lots of open old farm land...
  10. Yep... At 1140' here; once down the street a bit to 700 much less impressive
  11. Icy easy facing window panes; no ice on adjacent (left side of pic) window panes facing north... Kind of neat...
  12. Sorry for delayed response; was on conference calls... All reports say wet roads, but history tells me given temps in your area, icy or refreezing conditions likely along the sides / edges of the roadways; especially secondary roads...
  13. This is why we can't have nice things... I guess the "don't touch the money" saying means nothing to some folks...
  14. Noting some moderate snow obs (0.5 vis) across northeast PA? KAVP & KMPO
  15. Thanks Steve... very comfortable and efficient working office... as long as I can stop looking out the window during storm events; lol
