Moderate Snow Potential 4/4

[Baroclinic Zone]

Why does that HRRR look so different than the one I use? Both graphically and prognostically?

Probably because the one you have access to is better than the crappy ones the Public can use.

Last I looked on the other site the recent update was the 10z run. This is the 11z.

Snowing pretty hard in Bridgewater..... Drive home around 1 should be interesting

And it's just a pretty snowfall image which are BS anyways but fun to look at.

We've been in the clear on ENX and BOX for the last 2-3 frames but the light to moderate snow has continued unabated.

Def. lightened up quite a bit now. I'm hoping that there's actually still snow falling as that big slot of no returns moves thru like what you say is happening there

[ORH_wxman]

Thanks, hopefully we keep the overcast and the temp down. Even sniffing 30 will probably melt this.

Are we eyeing the precip between buffalo and Binghamton for later?

The stuff for later this afternoon is more like over central/west PA. The stuff over NY State is going to try and form a band or two for central and northern areas (like pike to S VT/S NH) over the next 4-5 hours or so. The stronger lift then shifts further south.

It's an elongated surface low that will eventually shift east but it is currently centered over W PA like Will said.

i-90 south is going to suffer thru an excruciating next couple of hours of little to nothing going on, before it shifts south after lunch time

2" here as of 9 AM.

Picking back up now after 30 minute lull. Radar looks good to my West, hopefully holds together.

Is it snowing there?

That's why I said near MA/NH border should do ok this morning even if there is a lull.

I think HRRR has precip placement a tad too far south. Matching up radar to forecast radar. I think cold air will still sink farther south but highest totals will be a smidge north. We'll see if that jump south is a trend or if it reverts back in the next couple runs.

The coating on the parking lot here is already completely melting and that's with a temp of 20F at CON.

Steady light snow where I am in Southington. 2" here as well.

HRRR has been playing a little catchup with that dry slot. Previous runs were filling that in a lot quicker. Looks like there's sleety echoes even up near BGM.

Oddly enough with no returns showing. Snow has picked back up with big fluffy flakes . Must be real low level stuff

[ryanjn]

Thinking something like this. A band from the ocean westward into northern PLY county will prob set up, and maybe in northern RI. A bit of a weak spot for the CT River, snow a little farther south and southeast than earlier but not sure if that 4-6+ is gonna make it all the way to the Upper Cape like latest HRRR showing.

Reasonable idea.  I've liked the area just to my N since Saturday as the area for highest totals.

I do think the HRRR is too far S.

[CarverWX]

Moderate snow in Brockton.  Side streets are starting to turn white.

[ryanjn]

I think snow will be a bit more uniform north, and semi-convective south of the Pike, leading to a bit more sporadic accumulations like we saw yesterday. HIRES models showing some nice base reflectivity coming in with the second batch. 

[Damage In Tolland]

Picking up the lull now

and the pounding late

[Baroclinic Zone]

About 1" in Wrentham

[sankaty]

1.5 inches of fluffy April snow here.  Light snow still falling.

 

28F

[Damage In Tolland]

Not even flurrying now. Looks like after noon or 1:00pm for the grand finale to start

1.25 new. This is from my deck which is shaded and includes yesterday. About 2 inches in non shade woods and .5 on grass dirt were left yesterday with all bare just down the hill. All surfaces covered again. Amazingly cold

[Thunderblizzard]

Just a couple flakes flying now

[RIcoastalWX]

31/30 - Heavy Snow Light E to ESE. 1.25" of new

[ryanjn]

I don't think will be as filled in later on as it's showing. This is just going from obs in past events. It rarely fills out with no dry spots in Southeast NE. (regarding HRRR ref someone posted)
