495 was a mess to/from Marion. Slow and steady wins the race.....or at least keeps you from driving off the road like so many people did.

Going to headed out to Marion pretty soon......hopefully the main roads and 495 are in decent shape. 28*

Went over to snow here about an hour ago. Wasn't expecting that. 30*

I really wish we could dip solidly below freezing. Hovering a couple tenths up/down. Cars are icy, riveway slushy and ice visible on the rhododendruns. A real beauty of a day.

Wasn't it shown in a few plalces that CT would be the last to slip below freezing? Meanwhile, 6 of the 9 stations reporting in town are now showing 32.0* or below.

We ping.

Hovering right at 32*. Just got in from walking the dog--no sense of glaze though that must be really close to happening. Between the rain and snowmelt, it's rivers going down the street (I'm near the top of a steep hill). Even if we go to sleet, I think the ongoing flow from snowmelt is going to be making a mess out of my road. Also, the walk way from my driveway is under about 2" of water. That should be fun once it freezes.

Okay--I can't wait any longer. Out into the rain with the dog. Hopefully no glaze underfoot.

I only remember one when I was living in Worcester--probably 2004. I was heading to a meeting in Springfield. Just 1/4 mile from my house people were creeping down hilly roads at less than 5 mph and sliding right into each other. Made it a quick turn around and cancelled my meeting. I'm supposed to be getting my daughter this afternoon in Marion. Hopefully they'll have the main roads and 495 in decent shape.

Nice wheels.

First tickles below freezing on PWS in town: 31.8 and 31.5. Four others of the 11 are right at 32.

Eyeballing about 6-7" of waterlogged snow at the stake. Must weigh a ton.

It's 32.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 assuming your pressure is XXX (not sure what that is).

I just use the wunderground map. https://www.wunderground.com/wundermap?lat=42.14000693409969&lon=-71.90298368015738&zoom=13&tl.play=0&tl.spd=2&groupSevere=1&groupHurricane=1&groupFire=1&groupCamsPhotos=1&groupRealEstate=1&eyedropper=0&extremes=0&fault=0&favs=0&femaflood=0&fire=0&firewfas=0&fissures=0&fronts=0&hurrevac=0&hur=0&labels=0&lightning=0&livesurge=0&mm=0&ndfd=0&rad=1&rad.num=1&rad.spd=25&rad.opa=81&rad.type=00Q&rad.type2=&rad.smo=1&rad.noc=1&rad.stm=0&dir=1&dir.mode=driving&sst=0&sat=0&seismicrisk=0&svr=0&ski=0&snowfall=0&stateLines=0&stormreports=0&tor=0&tfk=0&tsunami=0&riv=0&wxsn=0&cams=0&pix=0

They've aged well. lol

After a closer look, we might not be too far away. 7 of my nearest 11 PWS are reporting in the 32's. From 32.2 to 32.7.

Yeah. We're 33* now here......no subfreezing nearby. I'm hoping we can get to sleet--I really don't want to be walking the dog in pouring rain. Might need to bite the bullet though.

That's one slow progression

It's like watching paint dry.

Another impact of global warming. Stay safe.

Temp has been dropping at more than 1*/hr. Anticipate I'll be below freezing before 8. 34*

Dropped 3* in less than 90 minutes. 35*

Looks like the cooler push is working nicely from the Quabbin area to the SW. Oozing a little bit further east along Rt 2. Man, did the south of the pike crew torch.

38*

Cory can drive up and take a look.
