Additional snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches for a storm total of 9 to 17 inches. * WHERE...Portions of central, northeast, northwest and southern Vermont and northern New York. * WHEN...Until 7 PM EST this evening. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Another round of light to moderate snow will develop this afternoon and will continue into early this evening. Snowfall rates in this next round of snow will range from a half of an inch to an inch per hour and will likely impact the evening commute. Snowfall will taper off quickly after 7 PM. Expand It's picking up nicely with radar blossoming well to the WSW. I just finished shoveling and it looked like 1/2 - 3/4" per hour rates. I'm at 13.4" as of 2:30pm.

Expand Aroostook was in the teens (singles at FVE) when the significant precip arrived there. In fact, they were already in the 20s yesterday afternoon. Nuthin' but flakes.

PWMan Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Not a single flake of snow here; sleet of varying intensity all day with surface temps in the low 20s. Maybe an inch of accumulation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Maybe Will’s 12z Reggie was onto something for tonight. Radar is blossoming nicely out in C PA into Upstate NY as the trough sharpens . By the time that gets into SNE column should be cold enough for snow provided it holds together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx_observer Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 It's a bonus when just enough freezing rain mixes in with the sleet to turn the slushy ice pellets into a solid mass. The main roads in Worcester are looking gnarly right now. Looking at the trees, we've been getting quite a bit of freezing rain here. I tried to get a photo out the window, but the screen is iced shut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx_observer Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Does higher elevation in an event like this make it more likely to have freezing rain instead of sleet? In that there would be less cold air near the surface to allow a refreezing into pellets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walthsnow Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Gnarly cleanup in Framingham. Had a push shovel and tried to cut down through the sleet and ice to curl it all up in one big push. Definitely one of the stranger storms I’ve been in up here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
