WeatherX Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 1" down here. Started as sleet and freezing rain, went to snow for 2 hours, flipped to heavy sleet and now back to snow.....fun times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Why did you think they wouldn't? 4-7 looks easy Because there was uncertainty in where a decent bands sets up. But, it seems like its working out where I thought however that's very preliminary. I thought 5 for BDL and 7 for ORH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Maybe my amounts will work out there after all. Nice band moving ENE. Check out the radar from Albany--what a band heading along the pike--a thing of beauty. If that can hold a band runing the width of Springfield to Northampton heading ENE is going to be the jackpot. Would love the upper end to bump north 25 miles. 25.8/24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widspread 3-6 lolli to 8 all of interior SNE. Wildcard was always coast from LL to you I'mm out to gallop like a Clydesdale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Temp stuck at 34 here. Very wet snow. Big difference 100 miles to your west--champaign powder here with temp ticking downward. 25.8/24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 enough of this eye-balling crap......take a measurement. I just did and was shocked at how my visual guess was off. Three separate measurements coming between 2 and 2.2". There's gotta be a whole lotta fluff happening in this. Don't let the air out of that balloon! I'm sure settling for official 6-hour measurements will allow for some compression. 25.9/24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Our schools (among many) have just closed. I hope Ginxy's getting snow--radar is poinding that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It's pouring snow right now--flake quality is somewhat less than the primo ones earlier, but still okay. Eager for it to get light so we can accurately describe intensity wrt visibility. But, it's a-comin' down a plenty ftw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin W Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Almost 2" here. Heading out to work; this should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 About 2 1/2" here in West Hartford it's coming down pretty good right now too. Dual pol shows some melting going on around 4kft from Waterbury to Danbury on I-84 so some sleet mixing in with the snow there I'm sure. That will tickle east toward Meriden/Middletown/Moosup next hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Solid advisory system for most folks on the board--congratulations. The 3-5 is easily attainable with the 6" amounts surely within grasp. In fact--BOX has just revised their map. Congrats!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I forgot how difficult it is to run uphill in the snow lol.. That was fun though. 27.9 and pounding snow. The perfect snow temp. Kudos to Euro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I measured 3 inches on driveway Interestingly, we're not that far off from you up here. That said, radar's not as robust as it had been, though visual under the porchlights still showing a great clip of snow for reasonable--not great--flakes. Somewhere between you and me is where the jackpot will be. Right along the Pike if the radar's to be believed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 All snow here in New Haven. Somewhere between 2 and 3 inches, will have a measurement in a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 All snow here in New Haven. Somewhere between 2 an 3 inches, will have a measurement in a little bit. You should flip soon.
