Friday February 6 FROPA / WINDEX small event

[wx2fish]

About 1.5" so far. Steady snow in the tail end of the Peabody band. TDWR catching the stiff making into into SE NH a little better than BOX. 

[Sey-Mour Snow]

Bottom half inch was slush , thick snow. 

[Kitz Craver]

Mission accomplished, solid refresh. Dirty snow, dog shit and pee stains all covered. That’s a win, lol

This is coming nice…overachiever maybe it seems..again. It’s the tenor. I’m guesstimating between 1 and 2 inches now. Blowing now too. Temp dropping. Looks great. Deep Winter rolls on. 

[ineedsnow]

Flake size greatly increasing now

[WinterWolf]

Heavy snow..19 degrees. Let’s go. 

[CoastalWx]

Looks like north shore band sagging south. Been just light sand all night. 24.

[RyRyB]

Dumping in Wallingford!

"Wisdom comes with winters"

[NeonPeon]

2" so far. Snowing nicely now, if I can maybe stay under this little band for a while I'll be doing well.

It's super pretty, but it's not snowing as hard here as radar would suggest.

[The 4 Seasons]

S+ huge flake size. 

Looks like a snow globe out there

 

[Modfan2]

Up to 3” here in E CT, snowing moderately 

[Damage In Tolland]

These things love to perform and in some instances over . Should be a fun day 

[Hoth]

This squall is slamming! Here comes the wind, too.

Once that squall comes through I think you’re mostly done.

here comes a foot+ for them i dont know why they went so low with the warning with 4-8. the whole map is low. And i think that was the latest Watch i've ever seen. Essex was still under a watch when snow was well underway for a few hours. 

[Kitz Craver]

Dark and stormy out there, squall is entering the ring, arctic front on the doorstep 

[HIPPYVALLEY]

Looks like at least 2” new. 
Kind of flipping back-and-forth between light to moderate snow even though radar looks empty. 
20°, wind starting to puff a little.

Would like to see what happens when squall and rhode island band collide , could be fun in that area for a while. 

[tavwtby]

just under an inch here, but man wind already howling, had a gust over 40 already, but is that a meso low of the coast of RI moving north? cyclonic behavior of the returns moving almost like a supercell with rotation 

[QuietCorner]

Absolutely dumping in my neck of the woods.  It looks like a good 3-4" so far!  I'll have to snowblow the driveway once I'm back from work.

5” Through January 17th is Equal to the WORST Winter of All-Time through that date.  I was HOME November 7th through then.  

18” is Not REMOTELY Historic.  You want me to get you Every Storm since 1890 that beat it?  It’s a Run of the Mill big storm like the forgettable Blizzard of 2006 or of 2022 or 2011 or 2019 (2019 was Memorable for Me, but Not most of you all).  The SWFE of 2026 was Historic for the country, but it does Not get a banner in SNE, it will Not be remembered for anything important in this area, and it Certainly doesn’t go to the Hall of Fame just like Bill Cheatachick.  It made the Top 10 in Boston.  SO Did PDII and MOST of you don’t even want to talk about PDII as Historic.  

And you want me to pull my Weiner out because I almost jackpotted a 7” storm?  7”?!  I got Screwed on the First 6 Storms EVERY possible way.  Too Far North.  Too Far South.  Too Far West.  And even the Crazy Rare situation of Too Far East.  (Which TONIGHT it looks like I’m Too Far East YET Again, but THIS time, it’s by 5 measly Miles)  

I can’t Spell Meteorology let alone forecast.  But you’re Now getting into an argument with me On Historic Statistics.  That’s MY Turf 4 Seasons.  

33” at this point is 115th out of the 136 Seasons of data I have.  Go ahead and tell me I’m supposed to be excited.  

Dude you need some Valium

 

[HoarfrostHubb]

2” here so far.  Flakes are super small at the moment.

Bingo.  I think Corey has lost perspective unfortunately.  It happens. Ya hate to see it though. 

[Sey-Mour Snow]

It flips back-and-forth from tiny flakes to quarter sized.  Barely snowing right now.

[Modfan2]

Surprised BOX hasn’t gone with a WSW in S RI

The squall with the front is pretty much the end unless you luck out on some CAA snow shower.
