Heavy heavy flurries here. First flakes in close to a month. Whenever it was we had that inch of snow and flash freeze changeover

December 8th? I only had a half inch here...next time it "snowed" was the dozen or so crystals that fell on 12/30. Very 1980ish.

33/23 here...looking forward to those low 20s and lower rolling into WNY now.

BOX AFD:

* NO BIG STORMS OR WIDESPREAD PRECIP EVENTS EXPECTED

I want to see Taunton get slapped in the face with a 6-12" coastal on Sunday

You object to that? Seems pretty reasonable to me. A day six or seven threat should be treated as such.

well, we're not far from that if we amp up the 18z DGEX (below) a tad more

plus, the 18z NOGAPS has an SNE special for next Tue :axe:

Well there we go. Not sure why I don't see "Snow, heavy at times" in the forecast. NWS dropping the ball

</sarcasm>

lol

A modest LES plume giving me a steady -SN, but its absolute fluff so it's possible there is a half inch of it. 19.4F. This stuff may uplsope into Pete's GC zone ..seems to be aiming that way.

"Had to do a triple-take on my upcoming 9, 10pm/Midnight NECN and NECN.com 8-14 day forecast: "Am I really forecasting colder and wetter than normal for NewEng next week?" That would mean snow! But right now, it looks promising. Details are moments away on-air, I'll post them online soon."

I haven't measured, but it looks like about 1.5" of fluff.. Band shifting south now....might be carrying over into the Berkshires some....

15.6F now.

Neither you or Jerry had the pleasure of growing up on the southern SNE CP. Even interior RI had Dec snow usually.

A little late to this discussion, but i can share my own experience. I agree that December is a lousy month for the coast traditionally, water temps still too warm, and other factors working against us.

I grew up within spitting distance of warm ocean waters (still live there). My father would take us up to thompsonville/springfiled for the holidays and i spent a glorious week with snow OTG. i remember numerous times when it would be snowing when we left to go home and as soon as we came out of the hills of N/W RI to snow would turn to rain with no snow OTG. Lots of disappointment for a snow loving kid (scars for life)

Weenie flakes and 27 degrees currently...doesn't save the winter from being a huge bust, but it's nice to look at.

Same here, but look at exit 22-26 on i95 cams, absolute whiteout and snow on the ground, missed it by 1.5 miles:)

Took a look at the traffic cams, the sun is out, but I see some snow on the grass and exit ramps.

Must have been a decent burst there.

Yeah its over now but it was near whiteout for a while.

Back to our regularly scheduled suck fest of a winter

I find it so interesting that in the small state of MA you can get a station reading 12F in GC and 40F on Nantucket at the same time haha

? Mass isn't even a small state and that is not a big temp spread.

If you are talking Rhode Island with -5 in the Hills and 38 on the coast on the coast or something....
