probably about 4" at my house with another 2-4 forecasted for this afternoon. although, i'll believe that when i actually see it.

last storm we were supposed to get upwards of a foot and we got an inch. they were calling for and inch or two last night and we already have 4. go figure.

whoa. just caught this little blurb in the forecast discussion.

10AM...OUR NEW SNOW GRAPHIC IS NOT FINAL FOR THE 11AM PACKAGE AND
WE`LL ADJUST BASED ON THE NEW 12Z GFS... BUT WE SEE UPSLOPE AND
POSSIBLE BANDING AMOUNTS E SLOPES OF BERKS AND EXCELLENT SNOW GROWTH
AT TIMES THIS AFTN INTO THIS EVE ADDING UP TO 8-9 INCH AMTS ON THE
HIGH TERRAIN THERE. I MAY CUT THAT BACK TO 7 AND SHIFT THE 8 TO W HFD
COUNTY.
DECISION ON THAT 1050 AM. OTRW...HAVE THE LATEST WSW ARD 830AM
ATTACHED AND THAT IS VALID. SNOW GRAPHIC WILL BE ADJUSTED AND FINAL
AROUND 1050 AM.

w hfd county is where our little hill resides. that would be pretty sweet given all the busts we've had this year.

:lol:

i realize he said orographic but what hill in western hartford county could possibly produce orographic lift? none that i've seen. i'm thinking of banding here bro, it has to be banding.....

and dont bring me down. i just spent tons of money and time driving around northern vermont skiing hardpack. i'll take this and run with it.

look at the green filling in and rotating over Ratlum road as we speak.....

Ya Dr. Mel - aka Golem - apparently has lost his touch or his ring.. whatever..

All I trust these guys to tell me now and days is that " Today, is going to be today and tonight will be tonight.. and there is a chance of darkness after sunset. "

On warm days wear shorts and a t-shirt, bring a snowsuit.

Still snowing at a pretty good clip here in Torrington. I would say that Sundown is probably getting the goods. Would guess about 4" have fallen here so far.
