Weren't you sleet just an hour ago?

[ineedsnow]

I think we really rip here from 4-9 pm

[weatherwiz]

If I can somehow avoid the warm push here I might overperform from my expectations here. Already almost there anyways. 

[dendrite]

25.0° SN

3.5”

The coastal front is well offshore from where you are . I could see it on radar.

 Weathertap is showing the mix not too far off.  It hasn't  been moving yet.  Pit2 is the pin east of Brunswick

[TalcottWx]

Best snow of the day. Still 28f. No mix here today. I'm not trying to guess totals again because apparently I'm rusty.  

[moneypitmike]

Is the 9.9" from the RAP on Ray's head?  congrats!

What a fail, I had posted that back in the other thread.

[DomNH]

24.6°, moderate, 2.7" total new.

[DavisStraight]

28 and snow picking up, roads were terrible.

[CoastalWx]

What a weird event. 

[ma blizzard]

I'm guessing those areas over my head mean something good.

[HIPPYVALLEY]

Moderate snow now.  1.50”

Temperature holding steady at 28°.

2.2” and still falling.

note: I did not measure in the grass. I was also kicking snow around trying to find a ball. 

 

You put snow tires on for him?

[TalcottWx]

Mix line is definitely making some progress over western CT. I should be mixing in not long.

Just regular tires. When we picked up the chair we asked how those tires would handle the snow...they said they were designed to handle snow!

[jculligan]

30/27 -SN continues. Total accumulation 1.1" in North Salem NH.

Sadly, this is now the most significant December snowfall since I moved to this location in 2022. Really underscores how these last few seasons have really struggled to get started, even in southern NH. This is a nice change.

Just looked at the HRRR......it's not showing taint (or at least very little).  Meanwhile, it shows it ripping here from 4:00 - 10:00.  Bring it.

HRRR shows me at 10 inches, we'll see

Just kidding, he's getting around great, looks to be having fun.

Just got back from staying overnight in Franklin, Ma after going to the Pats game last night.  It was a slow go on the Pike with several spinouts and accidents.  You could see the warm air surge more pronounced near Sturbridge where there was less snow and temps were a bit warmer around to 30-31. Traveling west, temps started to drop down to about 28 as we descended down into the valley and snowfall increased.  Looks like there's a couple of inches here in Enfield although rates are pretty light at the moment.  

[weatherwiz]

There is no way I am going over to rain. Maybe mix but not rain. BDL is still 28F with a N wind. Waiting for 1:00 obv from CEF but they were 28F with N wind last hour. I am not expecting probably 6-8" here. Take em up, take em up, taken up up

 

[mahk_webstah]

finally getting going here with mod-heavy snow.  2.75" at 1pm.  took that measurement on a wooden pallet in the open so probably an accurate measurement.

Missed this, box expanded WAA
