Lots of black ice this morning. After our 1/4" of slush then rain the temperatures stayed right around 32F all night. The ground was still frozen. I expected the temperatures to inch up all night well into the 30s. Didn't happen. 44F this morning.

It started as snow here at about 37F and fell to 33.5F during the snow. Didn't last very long but picked up about 1/4" before the flipl Now it is very light rain with a temp of 32.2F. Coating of slushy snow on the verge of freezing.

32.9/29 Flip has started. Light snow/sleet/rain About 1/4"

34.8/28 Light snow.

Exciting stuff. Light snow started 38.6/26 How low do we go before the warm air comes in above?

37.5/25 Bit of an interesting afternoon up here. Since it will not affect SNE I will just muck up the NNE thread with obs

A bit of an interesting situation today. I'm not going to post in the Feb obs thread as this will not affect SNE. 37.3/25F We should start off as snow but how fast it mixes and turns to freezing rain or rain is the question. GFS gives me 1/2" of liquid Snow cover is getting thinner. Lots of people will be snowmobiling this weekend if we can retain this cover. Hopefully this storm will be net neutral but the pattern doesn't look good. I was hoping that we could get that Southern system up here but the models are not really budging.

Same here. This is giant golf balls coming down. Each one lands add like 1/4" of snow. I'm exaggerating but by far the biggest flakes of the year. Now it's back to normal size but that was fun. It's going to make Rt 93 a quick mess up here after what started as sleet.

26.3F Heavy snow

Flipped to snow. 27.7F

Same here. No snow just sleet 27.9F

Meanwhile here are the have's and have nots. My pack is like a glacier. It has so much frozen water and sleet mixed in.

Yeah,nice and warm on the hill this AM

Last night at -20F we ran the oil heat and the wood stove. Even with that our pipe in the kitchen that leads to the ice maker and to the outdoor faucet froze. It still is frozen. With the crazy wind and sub zero temperatures the cold air was coming in everywhere. I guess that is expected in a 230 year old restored New England cape.

-19.8 for me. An hour ago I looked at the obs. Every reporting station in New England including Nantucket was 0 or below.

-19.2F coldest temp since I bought the house up here

-18.3F I think I'm bottoming out.

I find this more interesting than a snowstorm. Just hit -18F. I took a short walk to just experience that cold. That wind is still cranking. Actually being out for a short time I could not tell the difference between this and say 10F even though this is 30 degrees colder. Maybe some positives in that this quick sharp freeze will kill the Moose ticks and Emerald Ash Borers. Seems like MWN is bottoming out around -46.25F

-17.6F A little while ago I tried to see if I could make snow by throwing boiling water into the air. It didn't go too well with the wind and I didn't want it to land on the cars. In the video I said it was 17.2F out. Obviously I meant -17.2F I would guess this will be the coldest I will ever see in my lifetime. Going out to take a walk

I know your kidding but... Newfound had finally frozen over yesterday but the thin ice broke up this morning. Lots of people posting pictures of Arctic sea smoke. The widest part of the lake is directly NW of me. Could a 2 mile fetch over open water and then rising 600 feet up my hill add to any flurries? -16.2F

-16.1F Light snow. I am really surprised how hard it is snowing. Not just flurries but a steady light snow. Driveway and cars are white. Moderate snow growth too.

Just broke my 2016 record now -15.7F and steadily going down

Light snow and blowing snow -14.6F I'm surprised it clouded up and light snow for the past 30 minutes. Vis less than 2 miles I am now approaching the 2016 temperature record for me. Perhaps later this evening I will take some boiling water out and see if I can make some snow. I will record it on the phone. Just got to get it a bit colder

Mt Washington did it. -100F windchill
