  1. Miserable time shoveling the driveway and a stretch of road in front of the driveway. Only took me a bit over an hour but it was moderate rain and I got soaked and the snow on the ground started to get water logged.
  2. Time to go out and clean before hockey. Glad I got my high noon for the game tonight the other day instead of waiting for tonight
  3. ha, as I type that it's flipping back to snow!!!
  4. This freezing rain is kind of pissing my off right now. Have to go outside and clean and the freezing rain will make it worse...not too mention it's probably better to wait for it to stop then clean but hockey is on at 7.
  5. This is 10000000000000000% better than the constant barrage of snow maps
  6. 4" but its sleeting. ughhhhhhh BS boooooooooo
  7. well that was brief...all of a sudden it stopped
  8. starting to come down heavier again and flake size has improved somewhat. but it has that look of a "wetter" snow
  9. in a bit of a lull right now but no signs of any pinging which is great as I would expect mixing to become more probably with lighter intensities. radar looking good though off to the southwest
  10. Still coming down at a good clip here. I bet I've picked an up an additional inch since I measured at around 12:15.
  11. There is no way I am going over to rain. Maybe mix but not rain. BDL is still 28F with a N wind. Waiting for 1:00 obv from CEF but they were 28F with N wind last hour. I am not expecting probably 6-8" here. Take em up, take em up, taken up up
  12. Just regular tires. When we picked up the chair we asked how those tires would handle the snow...they said they were designed to handle snow!
  13. If I can somehow avoid the warm push here I might overperform from my expectations here. Already almost there anyways.
  14. 2.2” and still falling. note: I did not measure in the grass. I was also kicking snow around trying to find a ball.
  15. Warmer temperatures will probably start pushing a bit farther north and west over the next hour or two as the sfc low and 925/850 lows really develop. But I think there are positive trends with the flip back this afternoon. This tighter thermal gradient too may also help to really beef up rates for areas that can stay all snow and under the fronto band. This is definitely going to net some (positive) surprises in spots
  16. Gotta be best snow growth so far here. Should be closing in on an inch shortly I bet.
  17. Last night I took the garbage barrel down to the road (I want to say it was like around 7:00 or 7:30 when I did that). The sky was crystal clear with a calm wind and frost already developing. I thought to myself...no way we're warming as quickly as some guidance suggests.
  18. Wet bulbing and precip certainly doing its work. Looks like some locations have even dropped a few degrees over the past hour or two (particularly BDL)
  19. might be getting some stronger lift overhead but flake size has increased again and intensity has picked up. A good moderate snow falling now. Probably have almost 1/2" down
  20. same here. I knew this was going to happen with crappy growth. The rates aren't bad but we're not accumulating efficiently. If we had better snow growth I think I would easily be up to 1.5" by now.
  21. flakes size improving here a bit. continuing to come down nicely. This is the best part of winter, just sitting at the computer looking out the big glass door window and watching the snow fall.
  22. coming down steadier now, starting to whiten up the ground
  23. Yeah I think there is some encouragement here seeing the HRRR tick a bit colder in spots versus warmer. This could bode well for those right on the line. When the HRRR gradually ticks in a particular direction, it's generally sniffing something out but crawls at a turtle's pace to get there
  24. My gf and I will be there. Hoping to do my last final exam Friday night and we just have a dog appointment in the morning but should easily be there for 3:00. Whoever gets there first may as well head to the back so we can grab some of the bigger tables.
  25. first flakes beginning to fall, albeit small and not many
