Nice. You have the same snow measurement?

I had 2.5 for yesterday.  I haven't really measured today, but I am eyeballing a hair under 2"?

Funny looks much better than I imagined it would for this time, the lull was well forecasted , it will pick back up in the next few hours and spread NE as we watch a playoff snow game . 

Sey-mour, I use intellicast radar from Wunderground.  Is there another free radar site that’s decent/or better?  Just curious? 

[Damage In Tolland]

Trees pasted , light snow and fogged in pretty well back here at home 

[Bryan63]

34 and light snow, really awesome wintry day. Hopefully between the 2nd half coming together and the Pats we all have plenty to cheer about later.

[Brian5671]

1.5 here yesterday 2 inches with this AM's batch...maybe another 2-4 later?

[SouthCoastMA]

white rain mix, we'll see what happens this evening. 34.3°

[CarverWX]

It's been snowing here sense about 7 am and all we have is about an inch which was from earlier. To bad it wasn't a little colder.

No fog here today, but last night was surreal.  Everything caked in snow and foggy.

I measured 2.1 yesterday and 2.0 so far today.

Just a light snow falling right now. 34-35F 

I think we do see some pulses off and on like this over the afternoon.

Beef comes after sundown.

I only use weather tap and radar scope which are both paid.. I'd say wunderground is probably best free one..

Do temps fall? Or are we looking at more white rain around here?

They should fall back a few degrees as precip intensity increases later.

According to HRRR, radar should start blossoming in Jersey between 1-2pm and start heading NE.

Boy, I am extremely envious of those snowy landscape pics. That’s like my favorite thing in winter. You guys have beaten the shit out of us easterners. I’m crying Uncle.

I thought you were snowing today? I hope you get five or 6 inches tonight. Fingers crossed.

Feel for you bro, I have a good feeling you will wake up to the same landscape that we all did to today when you wake up tomorrow.

I was. Just spits of rain and snow now. As usual since 2022 it’s borderline and this is not a comfortable storm for me.

good snow growth here but coming down lightly

How far inland are you? No accumulation in the southern tip of Newport this am. Virtually impossible with any southerly wind component down here.

[CarverWX]

Snow intensity seems to be picking up down here
