HVSNOWSTORM Posted December 10, 2022 Author Share Posted December 10, 2022 3 minutes ago, JDClapper said: Nice cold, crisp morning to help get that ground temp ready to take on accum tomorrow morning. (21 here, heavy frost) Surprised how stable this forecast has been the past 2ish days. Not much wobbling. We'll see how it goes realtime soon enough! True once they all jump on board for a storm it has stayed incredibly steady. Very uncommon lol. I think it's been 3.5 days now. Pretty good job by the models once they saw it.

TheRex Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 BTV not very bullish on this threat in my area. At least we may have a little white on the ground to start the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just droplets on cars and wet pavement. Looks like the main event is a little bit away. 35 degrees 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDClapper Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I see flakes. Main event looks like it will hit pretty moderate. Green returns on this one usually are near 1"/hr. Quick hitter tho. ETA, 8:30ish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDClapper Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 About to get started for real within the next 10 mins or so. So far, just slush on cars, elevated surfaces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) WWA for Fairfield County overnight now, too. Light grauple in Woodbury. Edited December 11, 2022 by Hobie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRex Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Temp was at 13F at 11 pm and now currently at 26F at 9 am. Skies are cloudy and our forecast is for light snow after 3 pm. Consensus is that we get between 1"-2". It should be enough to make things white and temps are expected to stay below freezing until Thursday. Good luck to those that are expecting a some good snows from this system. Edited December 11, 2022 by TheRex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDClapper Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Disappointing down this way. Sitting at 34, probably 1/2" of slush on grass/board. Roads barely impacted. One more period of steadier snow incoming, maybe we get to 1". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDClapper Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 This one is about wrapped up here. 1/4" of mush. Very underwhelming. Maybe next time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StretchCT Posted December 11, 2022 Moderators Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Oh that didn’t take long. Snowing now and hoping to get first inch. Maybe it will slow down the shooting range. Sounds like a war zone out there. Edited December 11, 2022 by StretchCT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always set my expectations to be extremely low for marginal events so that way I'm not disappointed when they don't pan out as the models show 80% of the time lol.

TheRex Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Snow has started at 12:20 pm. Went from no flakes in the air light snow quickly. Temp at 30 and expectations are for an inch or so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators StretchCT Posted December 11, 2022 Moderators Share Posted December 11, 2022 12z snow maps with quite a variation. First batch through resembled a warm front, but the main action still off to west. Flurries currently and 32.5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tool483 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Steady light snow here the past 3-4 hours. Sticking to grass but not the pavement so much. Size of the flakes increasing and seems to be getting a bit heavier. Nice to see the first batch of snow. Will get some pictures once it picks up a bit. Guessing it won't be sticking much to the roads until nightfall but could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHSparky Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Snow started about 3:00 sticking to roofs but not expecting anything at all really. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StretchCT Posted December 11, 2022 Moderators Share Posted December 11, 2022 These returns over W CT are mostly light non accum snow. As it darkens and precip enhances it should start sticking better. Still only 1/4" on table and snow board. But it looks pretty spotty after this batch.
