I'll take the under and be happy with 5"

Still (barely) above freezing.  Hopefully we'll avoid stickiness and manage fluff.

Kind of a rain mangled flake mix.

Started here about the same time as you.  31.6.  Expecting more than the 0.2" Dover has been locally forecast to get.

Friday def isn't guaranteed for anywhere in New England.  If we miss that too I'll be joining team Scooter if Friday ends up being congrats NYC or Philly.  A nice 3-6" across all of SNE for all that miss the norlun would be very welcome and good for the inner weenie for the holidays. 

Im Thinkng 2-4/3-6. Should trend north. We’ll see

After the last month of frigid temps and 3” of snow .. I’m admittedly nervous . I expected a low snow year again. But thought we’d at least reach double digits

I can’t believe we got effed again. With all this cold.

To get to NYE below normal climo in this December would be an unmitigated catastrophe. Full stop. It would be wholly unacceptable. But there's still time.

[monadnocks]

We have a solid coating, almost .5".

Gonna be like a -4 or -5 December with little snow to show for it. 

[HIPPYVALLEY]

Lol, I had low expectations, but Greenfield is not even going to get a coating out of this.

Yeah, the woodstove and furnace use to snow ratio has  not been good.  

[moneypitmike]

And it begins.....first flakes.

Last chance will be that stuff coming down from near ART and Lake Ontario. Some guidance kind of blows it up for a good 3 hour burst….I’m remaining skeptical but if it happens then we could pick up a quick inch or two. 
 

 

[mahk_webstah]

Light steady snow with decent snow growth bordering on moderate. About a half an inch so far. 28° and the radar to the west looks pretty good. We should get into some moderate snow for a bit and hopefully snag a brief bit of heavy snow before everything moves off to the east.

I still think it’ll snow Friday nite. But understand the risks

Unreal....preXmas storm last year JUST south of me....one year later JUST north of me.

At least I have a dusting now.

Agree. Just speaking for CT, I do think there will be measurable snow. Low confidence, but I still think we're not at the final result on the models. 

[FlashFreeze]

33° and has been snowing very lightly on and off all day. Above 900 feet or so about a half inch, looks nice sticking to the trees, barely an inch on the ground so if it makes it through tomorrow technically I guess it’s a white Christmas in Hartland 

[40/70 Benchmark]

One thing to flick the schlong over the pattern trends, but it would be nice to actually see a storm poised to deliver major snows around the area. Still relegated to taking bong hits while watching @brooklynwx99 H5 movies like 70s porno.

[moneypitmike]

Anyone know what/when triggers the new snow maps from the NWS offices?  They seem to update frequently.

Personally, I endorse this one that just came out.

Maybe we can spin off a thread for these Maine inverted posts?

I mean this basically is the thread for this event. There isn’t much to talk about down here except maybe a quick burst this evening and a chance at a little IVT clipping the coast tomorrow.

Translation: I'm sick of reading about it because it isn't impacting MBY

[WxWatcher007]

The sun is setting, the temperature is falling, and the radar continues to look good. Will measure again in a few hours when I clear the snow board. 

What I do know is that I'm now over 50" for the season. Just an unbelievable run here.

This is my first season with over 50" imby since 2012-13. 

Winter 2013-14 through 2017-18 were in DC. Winter 2018-19 to now have been in CT.  

[ORH_wxman]

Actually getting some good flakes now here. 33F 

Not gonna last though. Gotta wait until after 00z here. Up by Ray could get some accumulation from this batch.

Underway here now, -SN, 30/24F
