Rain and wind here in CT. Blah! So I'm hitting up the National Weather Service every so often for updates on Dover, VT conditions. I've learned to not get excited about the weather there....and get excited about VT instead.

Still a very light, misty, rain in Burlington and 43 degrees. We probably won't see a changeover here until after dark.

Scranton PA looks like it got a mix, there's a little bit on the roof tops, but nothing to sprout ski wood yet.

I agree, most snow falling right now, except at the highest elevations, probably will not accumulate until temps drop again after dark (see Old Forge, NY 40 degree thermo pic). I think this is why VT is being hyped more right now since the coldest part of the storm will be over VT during the overnight hours.

We have a very light rain. I may take a drive up the Kanc to see if there's any sort of change

I noticed when rain changed over to flakes at around 9PM this evening while in the car. HUGE smiles.

And I still say those of you skiing tomorrow SUCK.

Starting to stick here. Temp is at 29, down 10 degrees from 8:00. Another band about to come through too. Maybe we'll see some white on the grass in the morning.
