Nice convective blow up occurring over the center of Epsilon right now.

Clearly the south trend today is notable for Cancun and Cozumel, but wouldn't a deeper storm bring about movement that's more poleward over the short-medium run?

Marie is going into beast mode right now

Special advisory designating this as Subtropical Storm Alpha

Hail has stopped, but still pouring. 1.75" in the bucket and no signs of stopping

Pea-sized Hail right now, tons of lightning

Got skimmed by a few cells earlier but getting our first appreciable rain and wind now

Very interesting how localized the rain seems to be! It is an absolute deluge right now near the Target

Dumping near 24-139 interchange. Loud thunder

Pretty impressive bright banding all across SNE tonight. Chaotic radar for sure

We snow. 35/32

Solid push south on CC southwest of Boston. Elevated locales along I-95 in Sharon-Foxboro area have probably flipped over nicely by now. Flakes are working their way in here in fits and starts

Flakes mixing in now. 36/33

CC indicating that the mix line is slowly but steadily crashing SE through metro-west south of the pike. Still looks like we're on track with guidance

Power is back on here. Crazy lightning continues though

Huge lightning strike in Canton and the power went out instantly. The day we bought a ton of perishables too, great.

Flakes flying. 38/27

37/26 near Blue Hill. Overcast

It is with a heavy heart I'm announcing that my internship with @CT Rain has been suspended due to the Covid-19 outbreak. I am wrapping up my undergraduate career with the aim of entering a Meteorology graduate program, and the experience, industry insight, education/on the job learning, and litany of connections Ryan provided me with at the station have been nothing short of incredible. The opportunities for students in the weather community, be it on this site or elsewhere, are boundless and exciting. While today is a sad day, it is merely a bump in the road in what I hope is a long and fruitful path of a meteorological career. All I want to say is thank you to this community for helping me and countless other prospective meteorologists continue along the path to success, as well as stoking my passion for the weather!

Nasty graupel shower for a bit in Hartford, but appears to have settled back into a nice moderate snow.

Moderate snow in Hartford and stacking up nicely. Looks to be backbuilding a bit too.

A scalping ongoing on I-84 in Tolland

Dumping near I-84/Pike exchange. As others have said, it’s a mess. Cars skidding out left and right and the road is snowpacked.

Man this storm is going to leave a memory for me no matter the outcome. Currently on the commuter rail en route to Worcester for a 1:30-5:30pm GRE exam. While the exam is gonna be wretched, I am applying to Meteorology grad programs, so I find it fitting that such a large scale event will be unfolding outside. Definitely not a coincidence. Hoping to emerge from the test center with a nice meaty WAA shield in place! After that, gonna be a white knuckle Greyhound or Uber from Worcester to Hartford in the middle of the storm. Will definitely be an interesting ride (sounds like blasphemy, but wouldn’t mind if the CT dry slot appears for a little while I am in transit) No matter what scenario plays out, should be a memorable day. Good luck to all everyone! I don’t have high hopes for Hartford but should be a fantastic event for those in MA

Sleet ongoing in Hartford, hoping we get some flakes before the precip runs dry.
