I have been. Every band seems to be breaking up as soon as it gets to central CT. Even the stuff in the sound looks unimpressive. Each band that has some potential is followed by light or no snow. Considering it's 33 degrees and it just melts. A foot is no way happening. 6" looks bleak.

Well, I just don't think this thing is going to come as far west or north as they thought.

Finally starting to ramp up in NE CT right now. Got the driveway covered, and I've also noticed the flakes increasing in size in the last 30 min 
As WinnChill has said, the bulk of the moisture and SNOW associated with the storm is going be be later afternoon and evening. We're still just getting the "appetizer" right now of this 3 to 4 course meal!

Patience grasshopper! It's only 130.
So are you saying that 6-12"+ is still a valid accum forecast for my area?
The range looks pretty good--can't argue with that (NWS and one MA station I looked at briefly). Mostly at or just above half a foot by this evening...there may be some heavier pockets/banding so the 10 or 12" range ought to cover it ok.

Just looked at the Mighty Yawgoo Valley (www.yawgoo.com) website to see what they were saying about the storm.
I was surprised to read: "Closed today due to the storm and the possibility of power outage."
A Ski Area? Closed during a snow storm?... Weak sauce.

Yea, Ski Ward said they are closing at 5. WTF?

I don't know where you are, but here in southern Worcester county/NE CT, most schools canceled for the day; so obviously not everyone has always been advertising this as a late afternoon/evening storm.

What's evening? Sunset? Cuz if so I have less than 3 hours to get 6". So far I have some snowflakes between the grass blades. Pavement is just wet. Again, it's melting faster than it's falling for the most part. I assume it will improve once the sun goes down.

The Mighty Goo IS weak sauce!
Not that much now snow down here yet. About 4 inches now and coming down at a good rate with high winds.
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.

LAME
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.
