Was that town roads? I saw plows out on the Merritt and I95 around 7-8.

5:40-9:40pm loop.


Interesting over Nantucket. Looks like reoccurring Ocean effect there.


Some ice reports in PA, NJ, MD.


Funny seeing it stay all snow "NYC north" when I thought was supposed to be a NYC south thing.


Pretty much all done now except light flurries around.

I was expecting a dusting. The New Haven area picked up around an inch or two.

Radar from last night around 8 and a picture from this morning.

Roads weren't terrible last night around midnight. Definitely was concern for some black ice; Saw some potential spots. The temp. seemed to hover around 31 degrees. Seemed the farther from the coast the less snow on the ground. Think last night still some flurries going on.

Roads were terrible last evening.... I think the snow caught everyone off guard.

About it for January ..No cold air anywhere after today. Maybe last week we see some active weather but probably not cold enough as polar,air finally gets back in. January goes into the books above normal, thats the last time i trust Accuweather long term for temps outside 2 weeks.

I can't believe you'd trust it the first place!

Accuweather month forecast is an absolute joke. Pure business move. Not scientifically accurate in any sense. They've done studies on this. You'd be better off just using climatology. It's that bad.

I was up in Central Connecticut yesterday. Went from Cromwell to South Windsor about 5:30, and when I left South Windsor around 8:45 it had just started snowing. Roads were fine on the way back to Trumbull. Didn't see anyone slide off the road on 84 or 8.

Temperature-wise...at times its been able to show some trends. Not for precipitation at all.

I agree though..its not accurate enough to use and really outside 15 days they shouldn't even bother.
