Event totals: 4.9” Snow/0.87” L.E.

 

I’m passing along the midday analysis now since I couldn’t get it out before we headed up to the mountain for the afternoon.  The morning’s accumulation was quite dense thanks to a hefty amount of sleet in the precipitation mix.

 

Details from the 12:00 P.M. Waterbury observations:

 

New Snow: 0.6 inches

New Liquid: 0.31 inches

Snow/Water Ratio: 1.9

Snow Density: 51.7% H2O

Temperature: 25.2 F

Sky: Sleet

Snow at the stake: 5.0 inches

It's near freezing literally 2 or 3 miles to my NW and low 40s just to my SE..It's a amazing to see such a sharp contrast here on the South Shore. We're still in the upper 30s but that's soon to change. Thank goodness I managed to remove all the slush off our driveway before the inevitable refreeze.

What a rink out there. @tollandalert will be busy

Very rare occasion, but the ice is nasty here.....we had 2.5" of snow/sleet, then rain, with the frz rain on the back end, once the cf came back through.

Noticeably more snowy here than KBED....they had about 2" there, 2.5"here with no grass showing.....I can walk on it.

Nasty.

24.4/23 here, after a high of 33

34 in KBED.

 

I actually hit the ice hard for once in my call, glad I did.

Event totals: 5.5” Snow/1.04” L.E.

 

There was a real mixed bag of precipitation types this afternoon, but there were a lot more periods of snow among the sleet and that brought the density of the 6:00 P.M. stack down to half of what the 12:00 P.M. stack contained.

 

The precipitation is entirely back to snow now and accumulating at least modestly, so there should be something to report in the next update.

 

Details from the 6:00 P.M. Waterbury observations:

 

New Snow: 0.6 inches

New Liquid: 0.17 inches

Snow/Water Ratio: 3.5

Snow Density: 28.3% H2O

Temperature: 28.8 F

Sky: Snow (1-8 mm flakes)

Snow at the stake: 5.5 inches
