Discuss the Blizz of 2010

[moneypitmike]

Actually what this indicates to me is that the low may be 1) tracking west as in closer to ELI and 2) Its entering its period of explosive intensification.

CAP's rule sleet or snow mix over W CT is awesome for the HV and the Berkshires and SVT.

Can't argue CAP--how will you be faring in gfl? How about Rick?

[Semper911]

Lull will be pinched off...money!

I hope everyone has a great time today and tonite!

And just be glad for what you get and be thankful you are not me: I am trapped in Scottsdale, AZ visiting family. I would rather be listening to a few sleet pings in the middle of a potential HECS than sitting here watching the radar from sunny Arizona.

At least my neighbors said they would clear my driveway and walk. When I get back on Wed, I can look forward to another long lull in the pattern.

I love my family, but I am so disappointing to be missing this!

really, it is snow grains with large flakes mixed in...what do you think is gonn happen with that?

[NB-Weather]

Ice pellets seem to be slowly going away. Mostly snow now, not noticing much of the pellets. Visibility is rather low.

[HoarfrostHubb]

Has Blizz heard back from his tubing family?

[DomNH]

45-50dBZ showing up on radar south of MVY.

[ctsnowstorm628]

It's not PL it's just some snow grains when the band lets up. Was getting them this morning

same here. whatcha got over there, bud? im up to 3.4" as of 445

[HarveyLeonardFan]

I'm not under that heavy band yet here in Newport...but when the snow let up in the past hour temps rose and the snow stopped accumulating despite the intensity of the snow. It's 33/34 here right now at the southern tip of Aquidneck Island and there's about 3 inches on the ground but it's melting in spots. 3 miles to my northwest at the Newport Bridge temps were lower and snow depths were higher....a few miles, even out in the open Bay can make a difference in a set-up like this.

[weatherwiz]

Another nice band moving NW from SE CT...should be here in a little bit.

[NB-Weather]

I'm up to just about 3.75-4.00 Inches. It's hard to measure. Coming down pretty good right now.

I'm establishing an early screw zone.

[SamAdams76]

Started snowing here in Chelmsford, MA at 3:31PM. Now, at 4:54PM, it is beginning to come down moderately with some blowing and the temperature has dropped to 19.6 degrees (from about 22.1 degrees when it started snowing). About 3/4 inch on ground but hard to tell because of blowing and because of about an inch that fell earlier this morning (unrelated to the storm).

Now, I have a plywood snowman across the street from me with a spotlight on it. Usually during big storms during the Christmas season, the snowman becomes mostly invisible due to the spotlight being covered with snow. It takes about 6 inches of snow to cover the spotlight so I will keep everybody posted.

[TheSnowman]

3.25" Now.

[CT Rain]

I still like 12-18 most of CT... 10-15 BOS on south into RI and SE Mass.

Wow at the wind. 40 knots at HVN and 35 knots at HFD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly...I had a heart attack when I first heard that on the window but you are very correct sir.

[HoarfrostHubb]

And the Jamestown Bridge, near my mom's house

[NB-Weather]

what's your location?

North Branford, CT. 14 miles from the coast. Been snowing for awhile now, got stuck under a good band early on.

[Patfan1987]

Very heavy band in Woburn, MA I LOVE THIS

[weatherwiz]

When posting snowfall totals try to do the best you can to give an accurate number, don't say "I have 2.5-3 inches or 4-4.5".

[40/70 Benchmark]

And the Jamestown Bridge, near my mom's house

WOW

[Tropopause_Fold]
