  1. Just in time to save Christmas week skiing up north
  2. Report is Jan 20 th came early in Tolland with snow covered roads. Imagine that. Who would have predicted that.
  3. Thundersnow and sleet in New Hartford Ct
  4. 3 inches new in Newry looks like its snowing pretty good there now too
  5. Nice I thought you might get an inch of mix
  6. You should get a nice burst of moderate to heavy.
  7. No snow at all in SNE? Pretty much as advertised. Heavy snow Maine, Whites, Ice Berks, mix in between with snow in interior MA for a while. Ice in NW CT Berks worst.
  8. Pretty much on schedule. Couple 3 hrs.
  9. Euro did a great job with surface temps here in Ct. Limited ice to NW CT and very tops of some hills.
  10. Wet bulb would yield 36 degrees
  11. Bufkit has an inch of FRZRN from NAM and GFS in ORH
  12. Wouldn't you want clear sky until 8 or so, you would radiate
  13. Point being doubt they figure in wind speed
  14. The wind speed component is a factor. As Ryan as pointed out wind increases accretion rates. Complex formulas involved but Utilities especially need all parameters to prepare. Once the occurrence of freezing rain was determined by one of the above methods, estimates of ice accretion thickness on surface objects were calculated at each model grid point using the simple ice accretion model (Jones 1998). The uniform radial ice thickness on a cylinder, accumulated over the duration of a storm, is calculated by where Req is the uniform radial ice thickness (mm), N is the number of hours of freezing precipitation, ρi is the density of ice (=0.9 g cm−3), ρ0 is the density of water (=1.0 g cm−3), P is the precipitation rate (mm h−1), V is the wind speed (m s−1), and W is the liquid water content (Wj = 0.067P0.846j
