Hopefully a Bruce Armstrong block and not a Will Campbell

Hopefully it’s a Will Campbell block and it’s let right through.

Sounds slanty compared to what Ray had.

[dendrite]

I’m trying to figure out how Ray had the same amount of pack as me before last night. 

[tamarack]

3.4"/0.25" here, patches of blue and trees are emptying.  The high ratios continue.  Long term here it's very close to 10:1 while seasons have ranged from 12.4 down to 7.1, but this snow season is currently at 14.2.  Without the Jan 25-27 fluff (19.6" with ratio 25:1) it would be about 12:1, still AN.

We'll reach the Ides with only 0.71" precip (March avg 3.71") as BN continues to rule.  Maybe Mon-Tues 1-2", would bring the month closer to the average.  (Would likely push the Sandy River to bank full, maybe higher if ice jams form.)

So do your chances of snow. Go and enjoy summer there.

Looks like a decent drink SOP on Monday, question is where does heaviest set up? W CT or E CT and RI. Glad the pack has melted and ground getting blown dry by the wind today and tomorrow

Decent snsh rolling through

[CoastalWx]

Water all over. Ponds as high as ever. Sump pumps running. Rivers in flood or close to it.  And moderate drought according to the stein maps.  Can DOGE do something with those?

[HoarfrostHubb]

Had a nice squall rip through coming back from skiing.  Snow and sleet.  Temps dropped.  Didn’t really accumulate

Oh please stop lol...there have been numerous times when Ray has measured more snow and there have been numerous times that I have measured more snow during minor events...if debating 1/4 of an inch is going to make your day ..have at it lol

Two main factors allowed me to retain some snow

1 I have done a bit better than most of SNE in these garbage events, which is usually where I "shine" relative to the region...you guys will rain, and I'll get Dendrite and Jeff's sloppy second-crumbs. I had 1.5" of pack-preserving sleet last Friday while it rained a few miles south.

2 My warm stretch yesterday was fleeting bc I didn't mix out until the front was approaching.

Not to mention I radiate pretty well...

Last night was a perfect example of #1....right on cue.

Great Slant 1717?

My area is like the garbage disposal of SNE...I clean up in the events no one in SNE wants  Methuen...the island of misfit snow.

TBH, my locale is in a local valley, despite not being right on the river...I also noticed that I consistently come in a bit lower than the Culligan guy from Salem, NH, too.....I don't think he's misrepresenting, though I know you are just nut-crunching.

Snowing up here in Presque Isle. Delaying my drive home.

Wouldn't mind joining the Yoopers in the UP for a few days.  Green Bay will have some mixing issues but a bit further N and NE, Damn.

Give it a rest. Posted like 30 times this morning for boredom and 1.5” of snow.

What did you have in the flizzard? I have a 10" in the that, and then avoided melting in the March 5-6 deal, as I added 1.5" of pack-preserving sleet, while rest of SNE rained and NNE had a few inches of fluff.

Pretty good snow shower here on my walk.  Windy, chilly day.
