It's 40.0/32F right now up here.   I can see virga to my SW.  Will be interesting to see what happens.  With this mornings sun we warmed up quite a bit.  Probably will drop down to 35F with wet snow for awhile.   Congrats Cn guys

i almost wonder if that 32 F DP isn't shallow ...  i bet your 'truer' DP is probably 27 or so ... taking the BL depth and averaging it.

Friend reported that it's straight rain east of here in Palmer, MA but it's still moderate snow here in downtown Springfield.  Looks like S- back home.

I will say, models did well showing the issues near and east of CT river mainly due to fighting off dry air and earlier insolation.

Yeah the northeast side of the precip right now is struggling a bit...combo of fighting dry air but also the good lift is still to the west but it looks like it's finally starting to move eastward a bit. So I'll bet he flips to snow soon.

Kind of funny to see the CT valley colder than the ORH hills and NE CT hills right now...all about the lift. You need the latent cooling from the melting snowflakes to cool that column right down. So if you are only spitting light precip on the northeast side of the precip shield, you aren't getting that good solid latent cooling through the lower 2000 feet. Great example of dynamics at play.

 

However, those areas should have a chance at some snow bursts because the 925mb temps are still around -1C....models had tried to warm them to about +2C by this point (this morning's models were a little more reasonable, but still too warm). Berkshires may get about 2 hours of legit heavy snow here soon.
