December 14th - Snow showers or Plowable snow?

[Damage In Tolland]

Euro AI won this one from 5-6 days out. Overall was pretty solid . It may have had a waffle or two but in general did good

Way too generous with QPF.

You get the point though. Track and extent north of snows etc 

[DavisStraight]

Still getting light snow, close to an inch.

One spin off on an exit on 95 near dedham iirc.  Itherwise no issues to the NH welcome center.  Car reading 31 the entire way.

 

gps is showng several accidents on the maine turnpike all the way to Pit2.   Hoping they treat the toads well before i reach them.

inward and upward.

Hopefully after harassing you the other day, @jbenedet can Sey-Mour reason for optimism moving forward.

Bc it will be gone by Thursday, and the SNE region up to seacoast NH, Boston and Portland will be tracking less than half climate average snowfall through Christmas. But sure “optimism”. Snow colored glasses and chest pounding from 40/70 too.

Good luck with the blogspot.

It’s been so bad that 4” gets the attention of DCer’s around here.

Overlooking Nantucket Sound.

Just crossed 3.0” in Barnstable.

[radarman]

should finish up with about 2" here. 

[CoastalWx]

Just over an inch here. Kind of screwed with dry air, but at least it looks pretty. Maybe we can get brushed with that inv trough later.

Moving the goalposts I see.  Hard to do with the kind they use now…. 
 

100% knew the details of this disappearing by later this week.  Amount’s through 12/25 are still debatable but you must have a joyless life if you can’t appreciate the beauty of a little snow we have today.

Aren’t you supposed to get your heaviest snow a little bit later?

I don’t think so?

About the same here. Looks nice out, but roads are just wet and I was kind of hoping for a bit more.

Such a small event but I was definitely hoping to grab more than an inch

This. Some folks are just constant curmudgeons.  Been a frigid month so far…and now some snow. Sad that some can’t Appreciate.    Like getting a 75-80 degree day or two in early April…we enjoy and take, even though we know the 42 degree misery mist will be back in a few days. Enjoy the moment.

It was right for the wrong reasons up here.

I don’t think it did very good. It was too generous with qpf.

It had like .4-.5 of liquid here yesterday. We got an inch of snow. That math doesn’t add up.

[weatherwiz]

Highway wasn’t terrible but saw two separate accidents on route 8 that looked like spin outs. One was on the southbound side and the other on the north bound side…probably even a few miles from each other. Definitely more snow headed through Seymour and in Ansonia than along 84. Beautiful scenery, everything caked in snow

No I called you out for your ridiculous forecast of a coating to an inch here, and blasting me for making a thread. It was a great event 4-8” from Philly to the south coast. Can’t stay true to the bet? You lost you were wrong get over it - no posts til Jan 1. We are here to talk about weather, if you don’t like it then don’t post.  Add to add what @weathafellasaid there’s no better time than 4” of snow than the holidays, it’s gorgeous out and everyone is enjoying it.  No one called for a foot of snowpack lasting through the holidays down here.  

[Sey-Mour Snow]

@The 4 Seasons4.1” here .. cleared at 7am.. depth never higher than 3.8” 

[weatherwiz]

Guessing snowfall totals outside of the shoreline generally in the 1-2” range…with some locally higher amounts? Definitely more than I anticipated, even up north near me. Up to a coating bad call for inland. 

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

I would say in general the models did a decent job highlighting the max zone, which was the cape, southern CT down to NYC.

They were definitely way too generous elsewhere though.

I think Wiz had a good forecast. Sharp cutoff 

[MaineJayhawk]

On I-295 near Freeport ME .. roads are pretty shitty

Wiz’s forecast was way off inland. He had a coating here lol.

It was good here. He had like an inch and that’s what we got.

Eyeballing 2 or so.. nothing with me to take a measurement

Glad he got your area…he didn’t get inland CT.  You may get more later?

Doubt it. Looks like everything is kind of fizzling out.

Maybe we get clipped my the trough later, but I’d doubt it.

Again, looks nice, but was hoping to do better than 1” after yesterday’s runs. Kind of blows
