34 with a brisk-then-flurried wet large-flaked snow in Newtown. Feeling very happy:)

36 in Newtown. We’ve got half rain half snow at a decent clip.

Like others, the wind gusts make it impossible to reliably measure. Pixie dust here, too. Still, standing outside feels like falling into a poem… It’s a Robert Frost kind of snow.

I was headed to sleep… Based on this, I’ll stay up:)

Thank you!

Light tiny snowflakes falling here. 32 degrees in Newtown. If anyone feels like an ELI5, why would snowflakes be tiny when it’s 32 degrees? I thought snowflakes tend to be larger because they tend to be stickier (and thus more likely to attach to other snowflakes) when falling through the air at warmer temps like 32 degrees.

Your every post is very much appreciated. I am one of the lurking learners:) Btw, 29 degrees and light snowfall here in Newtown.

I came here to say this. I have to confess getting a notification on my phone saying WINTER STORM WATCH felt awesome. Just seeing that notification felt like progress in this desolate dry winter.

Bucks. We have snow falling at a decent clip. Temp is 27.

Light snow in Newtown. I’m just happy to have snow- any amount.

35 and cloudy in Newtown…

32 degrees, and snowing lightly. A little less than a foot of snow outside. I was thrilled to wake up to a snow-painted world this morning. We finally got some real snow. The sleet part was also awesome. I truly love weather in all its guises (other than extreme heat:). This was a wonderful storm that gave many of us a true taste of winter...

I’m glad you and others got some amazing snow!! Here in Newtown, we certainly didn’t get the hoped for snow amounts. Still, reading this forum the week leading up to the storm and the anticipation was a tremendous amount of fun. Also, we did get a lot of sleet, and I had never seen such a prolonged sleet event with such high precipitation. I loved being part of this snow event. As for the snow, maybe next time the snow gods will smile on my area:)

Newtown. 31 degrees. We’ve changed to half snow. Fast small flakes with sleet atm that won’t add up to much. I went for a walk and have to say that while I’d have loved Red Sky’s snow best, I’m enjoying the uniqueness of this storm. We have INCHES of sleet outside.

Newtown. 31 degrees. Still an onslaught of sleet pouring like a heavy rain, but there are finally a few snowflakes in the mix. Emphasis on FEW. Is there any chance my area might get some snow on the backend of the storm? Or we’re SOL here?
