Been snowing pretty good here.  Eyeballing about 1.5” and easily accumulating.

Box map I believe is way underdone for my hood . It’s absolutely dumping and closing in on 2” . I’m literally on the 2” graphic on their map.

That gradient is odd on the coast.  W/ gradual cooling of the BL and the winds backing more N w/ time and freshening, the immediate coast should be close to what is inland.  Also, it is not Dec, it is mid-Jan, so ocean temps are not nearly as much as a factor now.

Only 32 degrees and just a dusting 

[Damage In Tolland]

Keep an eye where the Norlun sets up late 

[Masswx]

It’s about a inch and a half here had been dumping but paste what’s you guy’s call here for totals

One thing about storms.......you can tell by who's posting as to where it is/isn't snowing.  Lots of silence from the usual voices and a lot of posting from folks who are often quiet.

Yes, CoastalWx oddly quiet now despite "WE SNOW/RIP" many locations.  Must be MEH 1SM -SN in Weymouth!

I'm going to assume I must be similar.   I'll just see what's on the ground when I get there in the morning.  Pretty boring focusing just on radar.

Manhattan had reports of accumulation you may be a bit too close to the water.

Roads are a nightmare. At McDonald’s getting the pregnant wife her nuggets. Temp dropped below 32. 31.8

[NeonPeon]

It's been snowing for most of the last 12 hours.

We're up to just about 1 inch of slop.

See, you had nothing to worry about when it was raining earlier.

LOL--my wife's were McChickens.

[tavwtby]

vis is about 1/4m still but growth is not great, and looks like it is pivoting east perhaps we get lucky with a meso band as it rotates through, but I'd be shocked if rd 2 was more than an inch or 2

[kdxken]

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

Radar would suggest light snow here in central CT, but it's coming down pretty good. Eastern CT definitely looks best right now though. 

[Damage In Tolland]

Depending on if the norlun assists in CT early AM as some Mesos have . This 2nd round will be 2-4 “ here without any extra fluff 

[Damage In Tolland]

Looks like they’ll be some 8-10 amounts interior SE MA

[The 4 Seasons]

I have serious PTSD from this type of radar gradient

Damn son you back in the game. Love to see it.

[Spanks45]

Evening snow stroll...1" of new snow, still crappy growth, we had way better rates this morning. Snow is still pasty, trees are sagging a ton, 31.6⁰

Looks great up here regardless of amounts.
