Nice snow right now...probably moderate. Flakes starting to get a little better. So far its been like arctic sand....but we're near 2 inches. So it's nice to see everything covered. Hoping to get a 2" per hour burst for a while at some point.

The snow ratios was another part of this event that kind of fell apart in recent runs. A few days ago forecast soundings were showing a deep DGZ, but now the warm nose is warm enough that it splits the DGZ into low level cold and upper levels above 600 mb. Not a great way to run 20:1 stuff. So this early frontogenesis stuff is probably going to be the best ratios of the event.

Just a nice steady snow at BTV this evening.

A balmy -6F and snowing.  That is one of the coldest observations you will ever see heading into a  decent snow event.

cant recall any event that ive ever been in where we start with temps of -20C and end up with more than 16 or 18 inches of snow....a distinct possibility here, which would be a stunning turn of events to say the least. perhaps someone else can chime in with something similar? dendrite? anyone?

still holding at a refreshing -8F here.

00z NAM is already getting its ass handed to it on the 2m temps north of the pike...it's doing fine south of the pike so far, but we'll see if that lasts. It had ORH at 27 right now, ASH at 26F, and PSM at 30F. Ray was supposed to be 28F.

Having trouble resolving that cold drain.
