The boundary layer flow is why it was worrisome to within about 30 miles of the northern edge. Dry air just chewing it up.

Models really tend to struggle with that and will paint the QPF where it might be heavy snow at 800mb but flurries at the sfc.

1" new, but snow had almost completely stopped down here despite the excellent looking radar.  Did not see that coming.

 

A few flakes have started back up, so hopefully we'll get back in the accumulating snows, but the radar does not reflect conditions on the ground right now.

 

27F

 

Wow!  That's amazing.  You aren't that far north west of me.  It's dumping snow here.  2.5"

Hopefully temporary for you - flurries have restarted here at least.

2.5" in Newport so far.  Had some very heavy stuff earlier this morning, now its steady and moderate, very wet snow.

We have done well on these small events, and not well on the big boys.

 

Still, the amount of days I've looked out the window to be greeted by a beautiful winterscape is just crazy, even if its 3 inches here, 4 inches there.

 

Massive credit to BOX, they didn't flinch at all, and they nailed it.  Meteorology not modelology indeed.  It also shows how you see what you want to see if you aren't rigorous.
