would not be surprised to see a quick 2/3" in that I got a little over an inch and it was nowhere near that 

[CoastalWx]

BOX is right in the bullseye lol.

[dendrite]

Picked up a quick 1/4”. At least that gives some traction out there. 

[mreaves]

Down to 25.5° off a high of 35.5°. Pretty icy. With a little skiff of snow to make the ice even slipperier.

Usually, I chastise how much salt the town uses but glad they were out tonight.  Side streets, but especially sidewalks, are going to be a disaster tomorrow.

Woke me up a couple times.  Thought a jet was overhead. Hasn't blown like this in awhile.

There was one steady freight train one around 3:30AM.   Lasted a couple of minutes.  Pretty intense.

Yep

Highest winds outside the HWW. Put down those stupid wind clown maps and look at soundings.

How'd that pack hold up there?  I'm down in  PVD/Mattapoisett for most of the week.

Same down here in PVD.  Hopefully we'll get some good gusts during the day, too.

 Good 6-8” left or so judging by the stake

[HoarfrostHubb]

Full snowcover here other than where the dog walked etc.  only 2-4” but now it is ceramic.  We barely hit 40F yesterday and now it’s locked up. 

[SJonesWX]
