Mid-level circulation still quite intact just W of ALB now.  Parts of MA may get a "wild turkey surprise" from this.  Things could get weird w/ this thing interacting w/ OES later.

I see what you mean and we will be on the north side of it. I think I need to bank on OES for greater than 2-3” and not sure how that plays out.

I feel like if I get more than 4” several NYPD squad cars will be at my door by tomorrow afternoon

Yeah you can see backfilling over the northern part of the Catskills.  They've already done well and should keep stacking up. 

Flakes have begun here after a pretty solid period of virga

[Sey-Mour Snow]

5.2" in 2 hours and 20 minutes.. Back edge of banding is here now, more broken up radar returns..  Rates much lighter now.. hoping to pick up an additional 1-3" from the light to moderate stuff overnight..

[Amped]

The NNJ dryslot looks nasty. Hopfully that fills in quickly.

[Baroclinic Zone]

Radar tilts out of BOX clearly showing the virga as we slowly saturate the atmosphere. Like watching paint dry on a wall sometimes.

[WxWatcher007]

It has been dumping at WXW1. Went from nothing to this in maybe an hour. 

 

As for up here at WXW2, it's cold powder now. 

Light snow falling. 6.5/2.0. About the coldest snow I've seen fall. More like Arctic sand.

[Sey-Mour Snow]

Ya this is def verifying way north like those NAM and Euro runs that were north, dry slot is in SWCT.. Congrats up north you will do well.. I'm happy with my 6-8" 

[Damage In Tolland]

My pops had 3.7 in New Milford last hour

[weatherwiz]

Friend just called me. On the train into New Haven then has to drive to Meriden. Good luck

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

Just talking to Bob and Matt. The radar orientation looks a lot like those better NAM and Euro runs. East and west orientation, not just sliding SE out to sea

Appreciate it man, glad to see you’re getting the goods.

Hopefully everything pans out. Been a while since we had a lot of things go right here. Still have to verify

Started around 7PM and already closing in on 5" in Middletown. Been a while.
