These are my favorites. If we could have one or two of these a week or every other week .. it’s all we need . Big uns are nice and bouncy.  But these whet the weenie 

Yes they do... 

[Baroclinic Zone]

Can already see the visibility drop, steady snow already.

Mattapoisett averages more I believe. SE CT is a relative snowhole

If we can get decent returns on the nor RB side of the H5 bit we may be ok. Tough call. Guidance backing off a bit on OE but we’ll see.

[CoastalWx]

What a weird storm. Dryslot into CT yet we worry about dry air. 

[Baroclinic Zone]

For the SEMA folks, this band is not as intense as it was when it was over CT but this is still a solid band. Could see rates approach 1”/hr for a couple hours. For us it’s more a longer lighter duration event.

ORH now at 1/4 heavy snow. These bands aren’t as crazy as the CT stuff but they are still pretty solid 
 

 

[CT Valley Snowman]

That area from Pittsfield MA over to Cobbleskill NY has been under some solid banding as well.

I’ve felt our snows would come in a couple pulses. We have this initial 700mb/850mb fronto and than we have the low transitioning off the coast and we see a re-enhancement over eastern areas as we establish that easterly/northeasterly fetch.

Thunder snow report on Block Island
