Yeah. Maybe an inch. Someone gets a lucky two perhaps. Will start out as rimed flakes and then get better as it cools aloft. 

[wxeyeNH]

20F  S+  vis 1/4 mile.  Good snow growth.

[alex]

This has really over performed here, especially from yesterdays "under an inch" forecast 

[STILL N OF PIKE]

Looks pretty w decent sized flakes

visibility ...well over a mile

This is pure fluff.  Wonder if we can grab 3".

Proudly and probably pull 6" , radar looking nice up there

Nope, that honor would go to the absolute thumping  of 2 inches I received in November.  PTSD when I even think about it. 

[dryslot]

Best rates of the day right now.

Spot on! Better flakes and coming down nicely. Maybe in the lucky zone and can be one of the lucky ones.

[Sugarloaf1989]

Overcast and 30F.

I have no words anymore.  It just wants to snow.

Don’t worry too much about the exact words PF, you already invented one of the local memes to summarily cover what goes on around here in NVT and especially the spine of the Northern Greens:

Yeah you called it last night.  I hadn't been paying too much attention up here, looking more at SNE.  

But it's the classic 3" on like 0.1" water.

Close enough I'd say:

 

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

New Snow: 3.0 inches

New Liquid: 0.08 inches

Snow/Water Ratio: 37.5

Snow Density: 2.7% H2O

The snowfall rate has really picked up here, and with much bigger flakes.  If only it would stick to something besides the car. Slight wind (6mph) and fluffy flakes makes that unlikely.  20/14

Sticking pretty good here. Going out to walk My boy it’s awesome outside best day of the winter by far here. No rain no sleet no ice except under foot.

[moneypitmike]

Yeah--it's been coming down nicely for a couple hours at this point.  Nice C-I flakes.

29*

Several hours of the nicest feathers I've seen at home this winter, never quite made it to moderate, but still was up to 1.9" when the good stuff ended about 1 PM.  Have not sampled, but the ratio must be in the 30-40 range.  Not bad for an event that wasn't supposed to accumulate much, if any, here. 

[Sugarloaf1989]

Nothing here, not even scattered flurries.

[alex]

2.5" here, lighter snow now
