2/10 Storm Discussion Thread

[SteveInCT]

It has been pretty tame for the past hour or so. We probably have 3 inches on the ground so far, but the temp just bumped to 34 degrees so it will probably compress a bit. The radar is showing a heavy pocket off the coast due to hit in the 5pm range, but this thing has been changing by the minute all day.

My office has an email chain going around because everyone worked at home today. Mostly rain on the south shore (Duxbury, Plymouth), flurries in Boston, not much happening north of Boston and I have close to an inch with moderate snow fall.

Musta gone further south. The locals as of last night were talking 10-20 for my area. That ain't happening.

10-20?! Who said that?

 

[Greg]

For, by the end, during, into this evening....whatever phrase you want...means going past this afternoon. I consider evening 6pm-12...if you're putting a stopwatch to it.

I'll report back on my totals when I get back tonight around 11pm. We still have between nothing and 0". Six inches would really suprise me. Radar looks better, and I think when the sun goes down we could start accumulating. We'll see, I guess.

We'll be lucky with a few inches out of this by 10 tonight..

The sad thing is that map supports what the models were models were saying Sunday/Monday before the track drift to the north.

 

[bvibert]

This is why I haven't been paying attention to potential storms this season, I hate the disappointment when it doesn't happen...

 

[bheemsoth]

Yeah, disappointing.

I think I'm just going to hit the gym tonight instead of Sundown. I'm not a pass holder, so it's not really worth the $30 at this point.

 

[mlctvt]

From the online weather forum the consensus for Connecticut is it’s a bust for most of the state. Perhaps the southeastern section will pick up a few more inches.

I’m near the coast where we were supposed to get 8-13” and we’ve got about 2 to 3 inches so far. Hopefully it’s not over yet but we’re running out of time.

 

[Zand]

Report from Lyndonville: 35 degrees, partly sunny.

I wish I went to school where its cold and snowy. Instead it's warm and snows about 2-3 times a year lol.

 

[Marc]

10-20?! Who said that?

One of the Boston stations. I'll have to ask my old man, I heard it from him but the normally listen to channel 4 or 5.

Edit: that'd be WBZ or WCVB.

 

[Marc]

Roads are still just wet with a tad bit of slush. Maybe an inch on the ground, if you're generous.

 

[RootDKJ]

Blue was sick today. 8" to 10" down when I left. 15" here at home so far.

 

[hammer]

I left the office early because I thought delaying my drive home would result in a long commute...wonder how much abuse I'll get tomorrow...:roll:

 

[ERJ-145CA]

It looks like 10-12 inches so far at my house.
