So was that thunder you had with the snow or rain?

NLDN has a strike near IZG.

Looks like Socks should changeover in the next few minutes based on the dual pol in BOX..its gotten in extreme NW ORH county too.

Can really tell the slope of things too. You have melting going on out by 495 at 4000-4500 ft, while to the southeast of KBOX it is more like 6000 ft. A more oval shape to the melting layer ring results.

Chalk up another disappointment. About to shut off IMBY with an inch of concrete. Yay winter.

[HoarfrostHubb]

That is freakin cool

S to S+ here in Augusta Maine with 2" of new snow as of 9:15..I am seriously doubting the 3-6 here in the Augusta area via the NWS forecast...actually they only had us getting 2-4" from this event and Maine Mets and NECN had us getting around 3-6. some nice bands begining to move into the region per accuweather radar..and some nice echoes near Portland..seems the 540 line is crashing towards the Maine Coast,which was not progged to do as a mix of snow and rain with 1-2 " there...Its gonna be a long night here in Maine..Oh wait did I forget the powerful winds for Saturday and wrap around snow showers..

That is freakin cool

This is awesome!!

[JJBASHB]

Mangled flakes mixing in now.

[MBRI]

These flakes are so large they look like streamers.........

INCOMING

Ripping now...easily 1/2SM.

Got back home and there is a slushy coating on everything but still like a 60/40 mix favoring rain so I took another weenie ride up to the hill I went to earlier today and its ripping here about an inch otg and 100% snow. Its that last 500 feet of the atmosphere that's killing me down here. Nice to see it but sucks to have to go back down to the crappy rain snow mix.

[CoastalWx]

This is awesome!!

Enjoy, you jerk.

[OceanStWx]

Just a couple volume scans later, and now the melting layer is taking on a truly boxy (no pun intended?) orientation. As the cold air crashes southeastward, the melting layer is lowering all at once and appears as a line advancing towards KBOX.

[Snow Bow]

Just can't believe 500 feet of 35 degree air can make that much difference

Not surprised. Should be TSSN in spots in Maine later on.

[dryslot]

Enjoy, you jerk.

thanks

[ORH_wxman]

Theres some backbuilding of the echoes in W MA and CT so perhaps some spots could see a coating if that continues.

[Logan11]

Nice ....should be a good snow location there for you. You'll get more snow out of this than your old stomping grounds in Jaffrey. NZucker is in Rindge, NH now so we have someone near there again for when real winters return.

[CoastalWx]

Maybe I'll see catpaws on the windshield later on.

Cool. I'm on my phone and it doesn't display where you are from but i was wondering.

Didn't Wiz point out that on a model the other day?

[eekuasepinniW]

It's been snowing so hard.

I'm halfway through the construction of a new greenhouse so this is really irritating.

It's been modeled for a while. Just an indication of strong dynamics.

Waaaaah.

[Snow Bow]

Well when I went back down it had changed to all snow even down to my house not as huge snowflakes but still pretty good.
