Nice! 

 

I was really surprised to see that MPV at 1,200ft has been 35-38F Light Rain so far... 0.05" rain in the bucket at 1,200ft so far there.

 

It was snowing in Springfield, VT and raining in Berlin earlier and might still be.  Not often we see that kind of set-up and those sorts of obs.

 

Already around 2" of big fatties imby and still coming on strong.

You may change back. Literally 10 miles may mean everything.

Yeah...I expect it to once the heavier UVVs move back in. 1 by 1 I saw the RWIS sites going over to -RA (Canterbury and then Warner) so I got concerned without even looking at CC. I hope I don't get the 7-10 split with banding.

Yeah... just ripping at Springfield/VSF.  The ASOS past two hours worth of liquid/QPF was 0.12" followed by 0.23"  at 32/32.  That's some heavy wet snow wet-bulbing if we've ever seen one.  They are ripping probably huge flakes at 1-2" per hour.  

 

Pretty interesting event.  Light rain up here at 33F..no real precip though, just sprinkles.
