Latest core is 7.0" new and 0.63" liquid. That puts the total at 11.0"/0.87".

That last band featured some loud heavily rimed flakes/graupel that contributed to the high reflectivities. CON has had 0.83" through the can so the w.e. isn't far off. They've actually had more liquid than me since midnight.

There were some 30-40dbz bands moving ne and getting CON.  They clipped me and you but CON got them a little better.  Was watching and hoping for buildback or slowing down but alas.  Going out to measure in a bit, but I'm probably within an inch of you.  Good storm!

6 inches here. Sounds like there was a dryslot or something.??

Highest temp got was 29.7 now on way back down 28.4

 

Onto the fluff bomb on Tuesday

 

Will more likely resemble a cap gun than a bomb.

 

While you were sleeping a big sucker hole opened over CT.

 

Temp here's still climbing--17.5 up from my midnight low of 10.5

I'll say a very conservative 10" here.  7.5"  when I went to bed and cleared the board and just under 4" on it now.  Compaction shows 9" - 9.5"  otg several other places I measured.

 

19F with mist.

 

Doesn't seem like there was much taint here as it's very powdery n inch under the top layer.

 

Box maps were right on for this area.

Congrats,  Chris.  I think you and I were very close on this one..  I had cleared 4.5 before bed and I had 6" new this morning.  I'm sure there was some compacting and I did ping for at least a few minutes (that hateful sound on the windows).  The pinging was not long-lived, fortunately, but had to have had some impact on compaction. 

 

But, the measurement is what the measurement is.
