We picked up about another half inch since my earlier observations, but that larger flakes wound down and we’ve had just lighter snow with small flakes since then. If that banding that PF mentioned moves over toward the mountains here I suspect the snowfall intensity would pick up though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backedgeapproaching Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 2.9" here. Somewhat of a underachiever based on last minute model guidance. Oh well, looks nice with everything covered again. On to the squalls tomorrow and to see how they shake out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Looks like 4" will be my total. Im at 18" for the season. At least the bare ground is now covered. Even though it will warm up a bit next week still in the mid 30's for highs. Not warm enough to melt 4" so it looks like a white Christmas. No big storms in sight but looking forward to some squalls tomorrow. Maybe add an 1" or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 The NWS is certainly serious about these squalls – I got the full blown loud beeping alert on my phone, and my son just got home and said everyone else is getting them as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Event totals: 0.8” Snow/0.26” L.E. I ran an analysis on the snow we’ve seen thus far this afternoon, and indeed it came in quite dry as PF was mentioning. We do have some additional snow falling now with the next slug of moisture coming into the area, so we’ll see what the evening brings with respect to any additional accumulations.

Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.8 inches New Liquid: 0.01 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 80.0 Snow Density: 1.3% H2O Temperature: 27.5 F Sky: Light Snow (1 to 2 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 4.5 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Snowing nicely here, big fluffy flakes, but not of the squally type. Just your regular garden variety upslope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Got the squall warning too. Drive through some heavy snow around exit 6. Visibility down to 1/2-3/4 mile for a time and the roads started to get pretty covered. No wind to speak of though. Didn’t seem like a true squall though. About an inch or so of accumulation at home.
