Hurricane Agnes Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 52 minutes ago, KamuSnow said: I'm in the 2 to 4 in zone 3, which is probably about right. Sucks being on the gradient edge! Nevertheless, if I get 3" I'll exceed last winter's total, so there's that. It sure looks and feels like snow, got that raw breeze out of the ENE. And as I'm typing, 1st flakes! Hoping for a nice snowy afternoon at least! Ha! 3" will also exceed my just-under 2.5" from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh it's coming!! sleetfest....but again sleet gets a bad wrap!! it's white like snow and when accumulated even looks like snow....it counts as snow .....it's great for snow board sledding and takes longer to melt - how is that for positive Paul!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderately Unstable Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I'm almost certain everyone knows this, but the "precipitation depiction" pane on RadarScope also shows the R/S line as well. Similarly, hydrometeor classification is very helpful. I know everyone has their own "go to" radar services for different events so I just want to share in case anyone reading this (member or not) wanted another tool to look at.

My wife bought me Radarscope as an early Xmas gift. How do I get to the "precipitation depiction" pane? Is this a mobile-only type thing? I'm using Windows 10...
