There's a snow spotter report of ~5.5'' from 430pm. Looks like they're doing fine.

Started out as some sand here for the first couple hrs but has flipped to some good snow growth, 3”.

Good to see.  I was eyeballing about 4, but it's blowing a lot.  

[DavisStraight]

Hit a foot here with more hours to go, might hit the 20+ they forecasted depending on tomorrow.

[Chrisrotary12]

What’s the link to the good sight for surface obs?

[MuddyWx]

right on pace for MBY so far.. HRRR leading up had me at 10-11" at 7pm

[weatherwiz]

Doing 3 hour measurements because I feel like it so next one is at 7:30. I am betting I am closing in on a foot.

Oh is it? I didn’t know that 

They’re right on the edges of ENX (Alb), BOX, and GYX. And GYX is a mess with trees.

sounds like what was happening here earlier...snow you can hear but definitely not sleet.

Agree... had a couple folks send me pics to prove that it was sleet.  The pics proved it was actually NOT sleet!

Do we have posters in the Keene, NH area? It looks on radar like they’ve kind of gotten screwed 

Primashine is just across the river.

Sleet is just inland

If "just inland' means more than 150', I'm sleeting.  lol

I'm not calling it a bust....I'm just saying....feel better about 18-20" than I do 2'+, which we always figured, anyway.

[WxWatcher007]

1.8" up here but now we're getting into the secondary band and we're probably at SN for the first time today. I think we can make it respectable up here if we get better ratios later. 2.3/-1.6.

Should easily be at a foot plus at WXW1

 

[bristolri_wx]

Just switched over to more icy snow in the last 15 minutes.  Up to 25 degrees.  Getting windier.

[HIPPYVALLEY]

Around 9” - 10” in Greenfield

Would you rather 24-30” Jack in this or Pats SB? Can only choose 1.

[78Blizzard]

RH been inching up since the start of the storm, from 91% to now 97%.

[CT Valley Dryslot]

Snow here looks like pure crystals. It's hard to describe. It just looks different.

[Swiscaster]

DC weenie checking into this thread since our storm is over.  We got like 5 inches of snow and 4 inches of sleet on top.  Are you guys gonna get the 18-24” they’ve been advertising?
