There another strom this weekend but they watching it careful If it happens it would worst of 3 stroms this week. As for Next Week there some snow Wednsday into Thurday 40% Chance and Friday 40% It look like it would another busy 2 weeks for snow as winter reaching it peak

This quote from Accuweather.

"One scenario suggests the storm may develop into a blizzard as it nears the Atlantic Ocean. As a result, people from Virginia to Maine will need to watch this one carefully.
If the storm develops to its full potential along the mid-Atlantic coast, it may deliver not only snowfall rates of several inches per hour to inland areas of the Northeast, but also strong winds."

"Another scenario would be for the storm to behave more like other storms have done recently with a period of light to moderate snow streaking across part of the Midwest to part of the Northeast. Winds would be significantly less and probably not a factor. Overall, a more manageable snowfall would occur.
Supporting this less intense storm idea on Sunday to Monday is a front-running and weaker storm that will roll across the South on Friday night with rain showers and then could brush the Northeast on Saturday with a swath of snow."

Precip stopped here. Heavy stuff should be done in couple hours for north of I-84




I was actually wondering what that blue tint was. I just shoveled for an hour and I am all clean and good to go. I measured 8" on my back porch. Snow was very,very heavy and I am done for the day......Motrin time.
No precip here.

Smurf pee...lol! I see with the new snow were over the bottom step on the concrete form back steps. So figure 10" between the other day and today for terryville. Just occasional bursts of sleet now, I was surprised the garbage pick-up still came.

"mess"? I thought you liked snow. No mention of what you got or what you see? You must have Florida sun there? And why are you still fixated on Sunday when we just had a big storm today? Interesting.

Current temps and radar. Mostly still freezing or below in CT except the coast. I see another batch of precip moving up.



Time for more shoveling! Be back later on.

Well I look at snow storms like making a great dinner or having a great party.... Fun leading up to it and enjoying it but once u start shoveling it's like cleaning up the mess after cooking or a party.

With that said I hope we get few more big storms.

Ok, I'm back.. lots of breaks! Still no plow on my road.

Flashbacks to 2011 with 3 foot+ piles obstructing views. We got dumped on in just 3 days! 1 foot of snow.



Snowfall reports: Everyone pretty much got over half foot of snow except the Middlesex, New Haven and New London coasts. BDR with 7.5" on top of the 6.7" 3 days ago.



I like how the 6-10" swath stayed north of Central PA then right into CT.
