all i can think of is, this storm is flying. looking at the radar, i do think the next 2 hours are most critical/intense for our region. but there's still a lot of showers behind
i like your pfp. I used that image for my super bowl party invitation haha.
Weather related my area has been warming quickly since the change-over to sleet. PWS in the area are showing 28-31 now. but the precipitation will get a lot spottier after about 10:30am.
1” on the dot in new haven as of 8:15am. we seem to be alternating between sleet and snow. i was thinking about 2” of frozen precip, and we seem very likely to get close.
i think the sleet/ZR risk is p significant for this one. particularly in the valleys and in the CNE region. that warm tongue is racing forward while there's not so much movement at the surface, and a small coastal low popping.

big freeze in chattahoochee
solidly polar airmass, alright wind direction, decent snowpack, but kind of weak winds. i think all suburbs make it to single digits and i'm gonna say 2/3 of city stations do too
a good thing is the pattern is fairly long-lasting and the AO dump keeps things cool-ish across the continent for a while. many chances for a storm to pop up
interestingly model evolution has this storm's energy feeding into the massive trough off newfoundland to create even more confluence and thus to push the next storm even further south
having the coldest departures to our south and a big fat trough east of us is a suppression city look... I would want one of these things to moderate for a better outlook
verbatim the storm track looks pretty suppressed to the south right now with the main temperature gradient being well to the south. plenty of time for this to change though and a coastal could spring out of the warm Gulf as well
this is a rare case where forecast highs/lows have kept going down as the event approaches… i’m getting 14 point and click for manhattan tonight night now and some forecasts are lower
