Steady light snow mixed with sleet. There’s a lot of dendrites in this stuff. Must be pretty cold below the warm layer with plenty of salt nuclei to produce this type of precip. 
 

Temp down to 29

I love this affect out there right now...  23 F with just enough wind increase in the last hour that there's 'powdered sugar' lifting off the edges of the eaves.  

Looking at the temp trends from the various home sites around town, it appears there's been two accelerations: one occurred just post midnight, with an abrupt fall from 31 ... 32 ...to about 28 ... then it slowly shed decimals until 6am when another four fell off. 

It puts one in the mood to experience more of it...  Luckily we have something to track early next week.

Home wx station is hovering right around 32F, not sure what is happening there. Sounds like W Simsbury has a good glaze.

I just had to call our plow guy and let him know our driveway is a sheet of ice. Started freezing up about an hour ago. We're across the street from Big Y on Hopmeadow St.

Radar looks really crappy. I think my total is tracking with yours.  Gene probably did well.

Mark, not quite as well as I thought by this point.  5.5"  with very light snow, almost snow grains.  We have had no sleet.

Temp continues to drop 17.9F

just over 4" here.  very dense due to the bursts of sleet.  It is compacted and will build the new and coming snowpack.  I don't know how Brian retains pack so well.  I mean in parts of the woods I still have 8-12 but half the woods is melted out or just a couple inches.  We have 30 acres of hayfields around the house and they are all melted except that back parts which get less sun.  But I said 3 weeks ago that my 20" pack wouldn't be my deepest of the season and I think I'll be right.  It'll almst certainly be true for Brian.
