4 traces = 0.03" 

I guess if you use the MM side of the ruler you can get it more defined doing the math.

That precip in PA should start blossoming. We'll see.

We are up in N Conway so gonna' miss this one but there is a fuk ton of snow up here.   This should get Greenfield into the mid-30's for season total.  I'll deal with shoveling Tuesday I guess.

Banks got pretty high even in Portland after this last event, so I can only imagine what it's like for places that haven't lost all the snow a couple times this winter.

Yeah it should based on the HRRR from 00-02Z but it’s not happening yet

Banks are insane above and NW of Farmington and so is the pack..............

[Kitzbuhel Craver]

Looks like a good slug of moisture coming through Ten/N.Carolina, picking up a little Gulf juice perhaps

It's been years since I've seen plow piles this high.

Shenan Doah pub tonight.  Red Parka has some of the best steaks I've ever had and they actually know what medium-rare means!

Is it too soon to dub this PD IV?

[OceanStWx]

I mean at least MSV did hit 1/4SM +SN briefly. That's not a bad sign.

I'm going to reiterate what I said earlier. Think I'm boned down here. Going with <1".

[EastonSN+]

Reports of rain all the way up to white plains. Sleet north of 84 in nyk

seeing 0z models backtrack so far gives me pause, seems like the "goods" are going to be to the north and east....

And GOODS mean a meager 3 to 5 to boot.

[tavwtby]

first flakes at about 9, pretty much pouring snow and grap right now... about 1/4" down, column needs to cool a lot more to pull off some better snow growth here, thinking maybe 4" total..29/20

[LongBeachSurfFreak]

Just plain rain in NYC, had a few pellets when precip was heavier. Hopefully not a bad sign for southern NE. Heading up to Vermont Wednesday night.

Certainly looks that way on radar. Robust band north of Binghamton, subby look down here, robust in NJ. Fits the tenor of this winter to a T.

Got a decent dusting here. Feeling pretty good about inland areas of CT. Not as much for the shoreline. 

yeah since I posted that, the grap has turned into better dendrites, hopefully we can rip here for a few hours like this and we'll hit 4-5", it is only 10 after all, wasn't expecting onset til about midnight or so

[ineedsnow]

Sleet looks to be further north than expected!! Might make it close to Hartford.. 

[Sugarloaf1989]

Starting off as sleet here in Enfield. So much for an all snow storm.
