Wow, thats a big temp difference between a few miles.. Just wondering, was the temp taken north or south of i95? Will be interesting to see if we end up getting freezing rain or rain for most of storm.

My parents are at 23 and they are basically where no Branford/guilford/Branford come together.

28f is probably about right for sachems head guilford ,I use to live ot there on the peninsula always a little warmer than a few miles inland,great place to storm chase during northeasters.

And once you get up to 1'' or more, it's all over.

I think .5'' is really the threshold from more nuisance ice to limbs/powerlines down ice. In Dec. '08 everything started breaking everywhere once we got a bit over .5'', I think.

What could make tomorrow's icing case a bit more worse is the fact that any snow that occurs across part of the state before the flip would probably be on the wet side given how temps will be warming aloft...so this would make it stick to things like trees/power lines a bit better adding extra weight.

For the areas that are just far enough north to be all snow the snow has potential to be very wet...so these areas could have some major issues with roof collapses and such tomorrow.

Ok....question for you NNE peeps....this isn't an issue I have ever dealt with before, but am about to.....what do you do when snow depth begins to impinge on the the radiation sheild of your Davis.....is there a need to clear it away or no....

My depth is about 31"....9" short of history.

Do you use Reading as your source for records??

Ray, when is your record high of 40" from? Is it March 2001?

That is awesome, Ray. Think you approach/tie/break it tommorrow?

I would think keeping it clear is better, but my temp sensor is buried in snow and ice attm and is identical to a backup thermo and my car one (pretty much).

Maybe it delays temp changes?
