I use the weatherbug app on my phone for temps. I was so confused seeing all the water drip off my roof but the weatherbug app says the temp is 16 degrees. Now it makes sense if the temp is actually in the low 40s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkO Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Dusting of snow this AM here in Thornton. 22.3/17. Expecting some glaze early afternoon. Roads will probably be a mess up here, especially being a mountain community. As for Omicron, I got it now. I came up to self isolate, but I think it's only a matter of time my wife and kids test positive (I think they tested too soon). They have symptoms and are in school/work. Unless you live in a yurt in NW Maine, you're going to get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I mentioned, 22.3, actually 22.5 now (1100') 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ineedsnow Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Lol seriously? Connecticut Department of Transportation · 38m Freezing rain is not like snow and ice this event was a Perfect Storm: too cold yesterday to lay down liquid pre-treatment & too windy ahead of the weather to pre-treat with hard salt.

It's always a tough go/no go with marginal situations. My town truck came down our little side road at 6AM salting (it was dry at the time). Kudos to them. They are sometimes behind the 8 ball when it comes to these but did well this time. I got into work before any issues but we got an announcement that roads here were a mess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#NoPoles Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 The temp profile is pretty fascinating here. In whitefield and Littleton temps are around 20 degrees.

Brian5671 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 response from CT DOT: The DOT said Wednesday morning’s weather event was “a perfect storm.” The agency said crews could not apply liquid pre-treatment for the ice because it was too cold Tuesday night. But it was also too windy Wednesday morning for crews to try to pre-treat the roads with hard salt, the DOT said. “It was kind of this Goldilocks zone of ineffective options to pre-treat our roadways,” said Garrett Eucalitto, a deputy commissioner at DOT. - the liquid part I get-it would likely freeze up the nozzles on the machines-but too windy for rock salt?

CTSkywarn Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Epic ice situation here in North Madison, CT this morning! A huge multi-car pile up on route 79 right near my street! I was driving back from dropping my daughter off at school.....and the road back was a literal ice skating rink!! I parked off the road in a cemetery to walk back home....since they had closed off this road. A car passed me sliding sideways down the road! Thankfully no one was seriously injured on the pile up. This is right near the North Madison/Durham line. Temps were right at 30 to 31 degrees.... Roads obviously not pre-treated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
