I gave myself a "C" for my forecast. I ended up with about 5.0" here but that was a struggle to get to. My 4-7" worked out for the most part but the 7-10" I had in the Berks and Northshore did not materialize quite like I was predicting. Two things took that away, Temp and speed of the storm. This storm was fast moving. If the temps in the beginning were a little colder and the storm moved slightly slower, my predictions would have been much better. So again, C at best for my earlier forecast. Looks really pretty this morning with a crystal-clear blue sky over a pristine white landscape.

30 Degrees steady snow here.

I see that dark green band coming in-between 128 and 495. That is what I need to happen up to just about 12:00 AM tonight. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I see what you're saying. That is setting up just in and around 128. I'm on the very edge of it but also getting some of it. I feel you will fill in but would need to pound for a while to get the good stuff.

You'll pound for a little bit now. Let's see we're you end up in the early morning hours.

Right on time.

I had a bit of light snizzle (light rain and snow graupels) but at 5:45 PM was straight snow.

Maybe you should instead.

Keep being a wise ass.

Not western CT just central and eastern areas will get that. I'm talking about the one down the coastline in New Jersey not the one. It's not going to come up straight north. Not the trajectory.

That down there is headed northeast not north/northeast. That will go to mostly central and eastern areas based on the trajectory.

It started snowing here about 5:45 PM. Well ahead of schedule. The mid-levels are colder than progged. This is a good sign for my neck of the woods. 36 degrees Wet steady snow.

That is a mesoscale feature.

It also has to do with the intensity of the precipitation. Vertical vorticity can't really occur with only light precip falling.
