Damage In Tolland Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 As soon as it's light enough I'll grab some pics on the iphone. I'll either post them before I leave at 7:30 or more likely from the office. Wish MRG was still on the board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Clearly some elevation dependency to this system. Trees caked in snow here at work. I'd guess bewteen 1-2" fell here. At home not much accumulated. Ended up with ~0.3". Mood system to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgwp96 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Nice Pics, great snow event there. Alot of us do. Its too bad they banned him, really miss his posts and personality. What did he do to get banned? I missed It .Was always funny to read his snow bragging posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Really pretty scene here this morning with brightening skies and every tree branch caked in frozen snow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I took a few shots myself - similar to the ones posted from my south. Really pretty this morning with the snow sticking to everything. 2" is my final. No snow though in the CT River Valley where I am today. Very elevation dependant but I also think the hills to my south and east did the best. I always seemed to be on the northern edge of the really good bands.

Damage In Tolland Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Soon as you hit Vernon on 84 in the valley bare ground. Brutal. Have to keep looking at my pictures . Hopefully it makes it thru weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Warrior commander Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 1.2" on the board at 7AM this morning.. Pic to follow.. PDC Very nice on the trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Beautiful ride in to work today, area by exit 86 on 395 (Griswold, Voluntown area) really got some good snow, probably 3 there. Work valley in Ledyard had a trace, what a difference 100 feet made. Long views from our obs Tower, quality sucks but you can see how much difference even a little elevation made.

wxmanmitch Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 We probably had about 1/2" of snow here, which isn't much due to QPF problems. I hope this isn't one of those winters where GC and NNE get cursed with QPF problems like '03-'04 or '04-'05. Flew into BDL around 4 PM yesterday from TPA and it was a snow/rain mix in the CT River Valley at 34-35° F. There really wasn't any accumulation until you reached about 800-900'. Precipitation was too light to fight the warm BL outside of the frontogenesis band below 1K feet. It was an interesting landing as you couldn't see the ground until we descended below 1K feet or so. Ceilings were very low. It was like we were in the clouds and had no idea how high we were and then boom, the ground and the runway is suddenly right there below you. Instruments FTW.

Ginx snewx Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Wow, that's really cool Steve. Just wish I had a good camera, left my good cell and my camera home today. Even from the valley in Plainfield you could see really great caked hills all around, 100 feet rise on those small hills. Griswold looks just like Kevs spot, wish there were more spotters around .

Ginx snewx Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 that second pic is awesome. amazing those little hills had that much difference. Yea I was stricken by the difference several times on my way in. RT 164 is a winding undulating up and down kind of road in Preston CT, elevation change is maybe 75-100 feet, each corner and hill was different by as much as 1-2 inches. I am sure it was snowing just as hard down low but a small warm layer was trapped in these valleys, maybe 100 feet deep that kept them from accumulating.

CoastalWx Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Apparently, the city of Boston must have a budget for snow and ice removal, because there is an exhorbitant amount of salt on my street. It's like a massive salt mine and for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is probably spot on from what I saw. She is probably less a slant sticker than you. I will have a shot of getting my 1/2" lead again this year.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Very nice pic. Looked like my pics last night except it was dark out. Amazing how much difference there was between 900-1000 feet and 600 feet in the general ORH area. What did you measure? I had around 1.5" on board but it was over 2" on the grass.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm amazed by the day in and day out consistency in temperatures in between cold shots. It was 38 yesterday before precip, 24 hours later 38.1 again. Weird year but our second flakes falling yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Very similar here Steve. Not much to speak of coming up I-495 through the Comcast Center area but once you hit the hills of Wrentham State Forest, everything was caked in snow.
