3" or so here.  31F  SN  little windier than I thought it would be.

There are going to be a lot of disappointed weenies with this banding. People get way too worked over the robust models. 

Radar looks great here but I think I am right on the edge of the good banding, literally going from arctic dust to beautiful dendrites every 2 minutes. 

Central MA and parts of CT look awful on radar right now.

First flakes in Augusta at 9:55 - there was an office pool on the timing, and as official observer I was barred from entering.  (My guess would've been a half hour too late, anyway.)  Ramped up to moderate by 10:10, flakes flying almost horizontally.

lol, Picked up here as that band is moving in.

FTW at Pit2:

 

...Snowfall rates will reach 1 to 3 inches per hour late this
morning...

A band of very heavy snow in the Gulf of Maine will continue to
rotate to the northwest towards the coastline this morning.
Blizzard conditions are expected with winds gusting to as high as
50 mph, leading to near zero visibilities and whiteout conditions.
Expect significant blowing and drifting snow with very heavy snow
continuing through the afternoon hours.

IT's been ripping here for about 2 hours with the wind howling.  Deck, car and street are all blown free of snow.  I hope people can measure someplace to see what actually comes down.  No measurements will work here.

 

Looks like Pit1 and Hippy are doing great in this.

 

SN+ and 29* at Pit2

3-4" (4" on non-paved areas.) here due to varying snow growth and borderline temp but I bet your house is 5-7" right now.

Wow. First I've seen a radar image today. Looks like Brooklyn was getting pounded.  But here in Manchester, just near Hartford I can definitely see how we were in that area of weakness.
