Interesting. All snow here. 

[IowaStorm05]

Still rain but a sharp 4-5 degree drop from 43 to 38 has taken place in willi in just the last 90 minutes 

[bmj16725]

Slushy coating on non-paved surfaces here - about 70/30 snow at the moment. Temp has dropped down to 33.2 F (300 ft ASL).

Yeah we had flipped but recently back to rain 

[HIPPYVALLEY]

36° moderate rain. Just took a drive up to around 1200’ in Colrain, Surprisingly no mixing up there yet either.

[Typhoon Tip]

Wow... seemed to have crossed a 'panache' threshold if you will - we have convincing moderate snow now, and the aggregates are even slightly smaller and more uniform..

Ground is slushing and whitening...

35 here ..down 4 in the last hour as this transition really got convincing over the span of time.  

[ORH_wxman]

First inch down on winter hill 

[moneypitmike]

Interestingly, we have snow now with only light precip coming down.  We're going to need to do something about the 36* though to get things moving

[MarkO]

Temp steady at 37.5. Painful. Took the drone up and it's snowing at 1500'

LOL

ORH really is a good spot for snow. 

[Go Kart Mozart]

50/50 mix in Westport, at sea level, even when the precip is relatively light!  You folks to the north and northeast are gonna get pounded

[J Paul Gordon]

0C/32F  light to moderate snow, smaller flakes now. Ground covered, parts of my steep Worcester street are getting some cover. Win picking up.

Northern ORH up through like Princeton is definitely the “Westminster” of the general BOS region.

I never thought of it that way

Down another degree to 35 in Middletown.  Saw* a couple of snowflakes mix in during heavier precip.

Seems like we're running about 5 degrees cooler than OKX forecast.

same here, just flipped to huge flakes

[Wentzadelphia]

I’m accumulating on pavement here in Londonderry. I’m not used to that. In philly it would have taken 2 hours to accumulate lol

Their temperature grids were a disaster. Had to run raw guidance and correct it to show on air. Pretty frustrating.

Southern Worcester down by Route 20 is not nearly as good as your place.

Slush on pavement...earlier than I expected. Good sign I guess 

[It's Always Sunny]

Nice example of bright banding. Melting layer around 1500'.
