Some of the worst black ice I have ever encountered on the drive home from hockey tonight. Roads were a rink too. At least in snow you are going slow. Going to be a lot of accidents in the valley. Our hill is still in fog and at 33*.

It’s been above freezing here for a while, but a bit to my east, in Fitchburg and Leominster, the roads have been icy

Came a whisker to getting killed because of black ice about 10 years ago, got lucky, had to do a couple shots of jack after that incident.

Yeah seriously.  If he's snow during the overnight and early morning stuff, it'll pile up quickly.

I've been stuck at 32° F with fog since midday. We never mixed out the low level cold at the surface here. North Adams was partly sunny and up around 40° F. There was some freezing rain earlier, so midlevels are warm. 

Hopefully, the dynamics will cool the column quick enough so that I don't waste too much QPF as rain/freezing rain. How much of my snow comes from the CCB vs. the upslope will be interesting. Some of the models keep the upslope going into Thursday AM...

I'm not sure I have ever heard such a loud rumble of thunder! Shook the house like an earthquake....geez

Ya it seems even louder than usual lol prefer snow but stuff like this in the middle of winter is pretty cool as well.

Just as I’m typing this a bolt hit probably only a few roads down. insanely loud/intense.  Not making sleep easy.
