I thought the past two days were great. Nice finish to winter with some good periods of high overcast and afternoon temps barely to 32 yesterday and 35 today. Maybe a few snow flurries tonight. Wintry appeal in the bottom of the 9th.

Looks lousy now but I still hold out hope for the end of the month into the first ten days of April. I am holding off until mid April to grade unless we are locked in to a summer like pattern which we will not be I do think with the very cold maritime waters there should be no shortage of cloudy damp chilly days with afternoon temps perhaps only in the 30s in the hills to the low 40s in the valley

Beautiful shot

Where's all the rain??

The stuff just north of Atlanta looks even heavier but I don't know if there is sleet mixed in. Regardless the stuff at Onaway has to be 4 inch/ hr stuff

Those forecasts in the Midwest I feel often over do it on a area wide scale. But there will be a narrow band were it's potentially life threatening. A lot of areas will qualify blizzard conditions with much less snow than forecast because of severe winds.

That's still pretty great considering it was almost 80 the other day

Wow it looks that bad ahead? Well at least I got to normal

This map is the best one yet for this storm. Your attention to detail is exceptional.

Had some flurries about an hour ago. Certainly chilly out with a led grey overcast overhead but brightening to the north

We will get today in with full cover but that should do it. What a run though. Solid cover 12/26-1/14 and 1/18 to 3/9 here in death valley and I think there were at least a few days earlier in December. 6 inches or greater depth 1/26-3/8. As far as I am concerned that's close enough to wire to wire down here in the tropics.

There were a handful of storms that were really brutal and that was one of them. A good friend of mine in Manchester was buried under 20 inches and didn't believe that the roads were wet with some slush on the grass. Pretty sure my old stomping grounds in Bristol had a foot. It wasn't that far east of us amounts sky rocketed. We did have some accumulating snow mostly on grassy surfaces the overnight prior but much of that melted during the day. It was strictly a downsloping issue for us and I don't know what was going on in poor Rhode Island. Lower elevations east and to some extent west were destroyed. It be cool someday to experience a storm like that.

Wintry wx continues in the north

Wasn't this event supposed to be in the 45-55 degree range earlier in the week? If so its cooled off considerably, probably not enough but still showing a sign of life to this winter.

I'd love a repeat of that in the valley, winter of 1717
