OKX has us in 4-8. If it were a month ago or even just 5 degrees colder it would be much better. I doubt temps will hurt us that much. When the heavy stuff comes in, it will have no problem stacking. Atmosphere is plenty chilly aloft and should mix down some. Snow quality reminds me a lot of October '11 right now. White rain when it's light, nice fluffy dendrites when it's heavier. We will stack just fine when this gets cranking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkO Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 31.5/29 and light snow here in Lowell, but kids get an early release and I'm banking on no school tomorrow, so heading north where it will probably be a dry foot and deep powder day tomorrow at WV. Currently 28.6/6 up there. I doubt it's snowing based on that DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMontpelierWhiteout Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Had a hour period of light snows here but now stopped with no accumulation. A sense of dread has settled in with eastern shift in modeled track. Btv totally discounted Euro yesterday. Still hoping for 6 - 8 here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already gotten two phone calls this morning, gleefully explaining "I heard it's gonna be rain now" and "I heard it went out to sea", respectively. It never fails.

ORH_wxman Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 You SW CT folks aren't supposed to get anything worth getting excited over until after 1-2pm. Consider any of the weenie snow bursts you're getting as a bonus or preview. Don't worry if it doesn't stick. Worry if you aren't sticking between 3pm-7pm.

Skivt2 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Just got another text from a friend in mid eastern CT saying "what storm? Kids could have gone to school."

Could have easily squeezed in half a day almost everywhere in the state. I understand why schools closed today, but we're coming up on 12:30 with just wet roads in the areas that have had precipitation, and much of the eastern part of the state has temperatures 36-40 degrees right now.

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Fiancé is a preschool teacher, they don’t get normal school vacations and built in time off. She’s been asking for days now if she’s got a shot at a snow day tomorrow. Id say the chances have gone up significantly for Eastern areas tomorrow.
