The heaviest rates probably start tapering off (west first) in about 3-4 hours.

5.5” - 6”.     Baking powder so accumulations are going to be held in check.  12”-16” seems reasonable for us. 
If it stays baking powder through the night, it’s going to be a pain to clear.

4’’ new. 1’’ past hour. Growth is still decent not great.

Visibility is about an 8th of a mile. 

Yeah, radar is not even close to best of the day, but it's snowing the hardest it has. 

[tavwtby]

8°/6°...Approaching 10" rapidly, looks like 9.5 eyeballing the stick, but it's up to the bottom of the cars already, and half way up my truck tires, wind also increasing.

It’s so close here but keeps shunting east. If you are near or north of the Merritt you might be safe

I think I've got some pingers. So hard to tell with this type of small flake snow.

The sleet line will only get 5-10 miles from CT shoreline, at most.

People should put down the models and just like enjoy this?
 

You coming over later to shovel my sleet?  Whatever happens, will happen, but I can both enjoy the current and wonder about the switchover for us.  It's what we do down here...

NAM 3K moved the sleet line 25-30 miles south, similar to HRRR.  More QPF on Monday.

[amarshall]

Big time wind now here

That's why you shouldn't waste your time shoveling during a storm.

And just like that 90% sleet. It was a quick transition. Is it supposed to retreat back?
