Great shot!

Was much crummier here today.

Elevated areas are getting smoked. I had to come back to CT earlier, but you could see the SN+ from the road.

Kind of a dud so far… flow is too chaotic, not blocked enough. Should’ve known the Froude of 1.5+ for today was going to do less organized precip and mostly just windy snow showers into the NEK.

Still should see it try to organize nocturnally as the the flow was going to try and block up a bit after midnight.

I’m not there but it’s snowing pretty good right now from what a few friends tell me. Webcam no help, but you can see it’s getting blown all around and must have come down decent for a while, as that’s from today.

Yeah it was for sure snowing… Lookout cam had picked up 4” today when I wrote that.  Now up to 7” at 2am, ha.

Didn’t mean for it to come off like it wasn’t snowing, but to get some of these gaudy amounts 18-24”+ thrown around, I would’ve liked to see a bit more earlier today.

The nocturnal flow blocking has helped a lot, congealing into a more laminar classic band.

CoastalWx will get upset at me for posting the screenshot!  LOL.

But really, using just the last 5 years, and averages only since 2008?  That is much too short of a time frame to determine any real trend either way.

As I think I have mentioned before, New England suffered through a crappy snow period 1978-79 to 1991-1992.  Yes there was some biggies, but largely confined to 1981-1984.  It really was bad 1984-1985 to 1991-92.  In Woburn MA, my biggest single snowfall during that latter period was only 11"!  That seemed like a lot back then, but now, MEH unless at least 18" after epic 1992-93 to 2015-2016! 

CoastalWx has vivid "traumatic" memories as a li'l kid at the time in the mid-late 80s --  "WHERE'S MY 4-8" IN THE BACKLASH!!!"

I wouldn't discount anything its ripping in Waterbury Center but determining any snowfall will be a challenge with this wind.
