"We're gonna need a bigger plow..." Massive, persistent singal now emerges discretely in the models, 20th-23rd

[Torch Tiger]

Winds have been calm for the past 20 minutes, ramping up slightly.  Missed the wx here at home and don't have a wind instrument connected to my VP2, but it looks like nothing happened (compared to the south shore).

37-39 in extreme western CT

[CoastalWx]

FOK 53kts out of the south. That area into SE CT/RI/ern MA may need to watch. HRRR kind of goes wild.

[Brian5671]

heavy downpour then windy here now 45

[kdxken]

2.73" for southborough. Just over two in Sherborn

Weird to see cold air push come from the SW

[EastonSN+]

Just flipped to some snow mixing in Easton CT.

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.

I mean road temps are generally in the 40s right now, but it's not like the ground was super warm prior to this mild up. I don't think it will take much for those surface temps to go back below freezing. 

[ORH_wxman]

I’m taking the under on any snow after the flip. Radar doesn’t look that impressive to me to the SW. I think best chance might be for a rogue squall or two later on this evening.

NYC folks saying a quick flurry at the end then the precip quits

That's quite a run through SNE. Gets PWM back up above 50 kt. 

[snowman21]

Snow in NYC now won't be long for SNE.

Don't ruin it. If EWR is getting snow then I want some too.

[Johnno]

Pissing rain again, should be a good freeze here no time for much drying

I was looking at the obs too. Still mild for a bit.

[dendrite]

That rain that just went through was pretty intense for 20 minutes. The chicken run was breached, but I was able to seal it off before it totally flooded in. Up to 2.53” and most of the glacier has melted as well.

Pouring rain as this last line comes through.  Not much wind in this line so far.  Let's see if the wind is delayed behind the heavy rain.

It's helpful but not required unless you have extreme driving rain and wind.
