Best wind of the day the last few minutes.  

[Baroclinic Zone]

[ineedsnow]

Brownsville TX is 29 with a windchill of 15  thats nuts

[TalcottWx]

The no flash freeze because it's windy idea seems comical now.

That would have been fine, but the rain and shower activity is lingering much longer than first anticipated.  It appeared earlier that there would be several hours of mostly dry weather leading up to the cold surge.  That is not going to be the case...

just had a wicked gust here made me jump up to look outside

[Lava Rock]

Had to pull out the old davis console to grab the temp crash later but for some reason I'm not getting any data from the tx

It never stopped raining here. And now it ends as snow . Maybe enough to whiten 

[weatherwiz]

It's like the eye of a hurricane now. Plenty of blue sky and sun and the wind just died. 

[ineedsnow]

that last gust was easily over 55mph

The bulk of the outages are areas i would've expected, Cumberland and York County

[Torch Tiger]

Worked in Stoughton MA today, BIG trees down and lots of limbs.  Was wild this AM!

[ineedsnow]

flash freeze will be a disaster I think with everyone out last minute shopping

[tamarack]

CAD here finally was broken about 1:30 - 1st gusts over 20 (approaching 30) and temp into the 40s.

[Snowcrazed71]

Here comes. Pretty intense line of rain. Getting ready to come up to us, looks like there's a quick transition over to some snow right after. Winds already. Starting to gust again

[Sn0waddict]

That line was a nothing burger. Guessing the wind is further behind it.

[ORH_wxman]

CLE -3F with heavy snow and 44 knot gusts

[TalcottWx]

I don't think the flip to snow or black ice is being played enough. 

Local mets and nws kept saying there might be that lull. Seems as if we are inching toward a disaster somewhere.

Always stumps me why this has to be the case.  The DOT / DPW crews have been alerted to this potential for days.  The DPW crews I deal with are already to go with a treatment just prior to the temp collapse...  Not too tough to time and be ahead of the situation...   Just a lack of coordination with lots of town and state crews...

[dryslot]

Big spike on outages after that 49.2mph gust at the house came thru, CMP up to 143,000

From BOX THIS MORNING! Doesn't seem like things were going to be bad to me

MA/CT for a few icy spots on roads but not expecting
a significant impact as the strong winds and rapid drying takes
hold.
