OceanStWx Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Ekster and I were just discussing, looks like the coastal front has made an appearance on our radar this evening. It's going to be quite icy just west of this boundary, so it'll be important to track it's westward wobbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 The WWA is a great reflection of the temps outlined here on. Freezing north and west of Hartford. East of 91 and south of the Pike not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Well it's certainly dumping out now. Radar says it'll be short lived but maybe we can grab a quick inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Just took out the dog. Rain attm 0.75" new and that looks to be it in the snow dept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Definitely moderate snow now...it looks like a fog outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy4Confluence Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Been kind of a nice surprise here this evening. Been snowing moderately now for 3 hours but because it's wet, the result so far is 1-2" on grassy surfaces and maybe 1" on sidewalks. If it were colder, I'm sure this would amount to more.

powderfreak Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Quick 0.5-0.75" and coming down nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only about .7" in Andover. That's higher than I would think. Drove through CF prior to 128. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised the ASOS is only showing 3/4sm visibility as I just drove home from a friend's house and you couldn't see much of anything. Flake size drastically increased too.

Snow growth, particularly the first couple of hours when dews were low made me think that we wete in for a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really used it before...just what I saw posted on here, but is it more sensitive now on the color scale? Yellows for 30 dbz seems a bit excessive.

Yellows for 30 dbz seems a bit excessive. I think the yellow has stayed the same. They made the two grayish colors for 5-10dbz stuff into greens, and then flipped the other greens around. The brightest green used to be the heaviest and now the darkest green is the heaviest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Turned into a nice snowy evening...looking like we'll be able to grab 2-3" at this rate. The high-tech measuring station...a white-topped beach cooler for elevated measurements, and the board on the ground next to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
