49.6, 78%, 29.76 F
.31 in the bucket.
Snow cover on the property 80% but rapidly melting now.Will be down to just snow piles soon.Enjoying the last almost full snowpack day on my property today.Won't see it again until Nov or Dec unless an April surprise comes but that's a dim prospect long range.

Raw and ugly outside. Looking over guidance, we're expected to remain relatively cool through the first week of April. More rain this Friday. Spring is in no hurry to get here.

Very wet period ahead
The tracks of the storms on the 0z GFS would have been great during the winter.

All I see is moderate sized Nor'easter in the long range. One this Friday, another next Tuesday, and possibly another next Saturday.

Kick in the proverbial teeth lol but this is such a nasty pattern. Cold, damp, dreary, and grey. Typical Spring in the Northeast! May still see a sneaky snow event before mid-April and the actual change to warmth.

Fridays storm would have been prime just two weeks ago. Looking at 30's and cold rain now throughout the event with some mixed frozen precip at times. Oh well, like you say one more sneaky event hopefully before we have to call it quits until next November, or with any luck next October.

12z GFS got colder for this Friday and actually has some snow for CT with more accumulations northward. I would love more snow down here.

Re: March 2017 Observations & Discussions
This is getting tantalizing close for the HV. The problem is how much of this is really snow and how much is sleet or worse freezing rain. I want one more event.

Re: March 2017 Observations & Discussions
nws disco...
Across interior portions of NE NJ/Lower Hud Valley/Southern
CT...thermal profiles will be marginally cold enough to
complicate the forecast late Tonight through Friday Night. Storm
track will be critical...with a farther south track favoring
cooler and more wintry mix potential...while a track over NYC/LI
favors warmer thermal profile and more in the way of plain
rain.
At onset of steadier precip lat tonight/Fri am...evap cooling
will increase the likelihood for a wintry mix of rain/sleet and
snow across interior. Operational models all indicating warming
aloft as Fri morning progresses but to differing degrees. With
that said...March boundary layer warming should allow for precip
in most areas to become mainly rain by afternoon...except
elevations above 750-1000 ft or so.
Late Fri Aft into Fri night...dynamics increase as closed low energy
approaches and frontogenetic banding strengthens over the area
to the north of the developing coastal low. At the same time
low-level winds backing to the ne/n should allow the boundary
layer to slowly cool. The question will be whether diabatic
processes can overcome warming aloft from se llj to bring a
period of heavier sleet...possibly mixed with snow. 90 percent
exceedance snowfall forecast covers this low potential for a
complete wintry changeover. Another concern is that
temperatures across interior...particularly higher
elevations...could drop to freezing Fri night...introducing the
potential for freezing rain. Marginal temp profiles will not
support efficient icing...but the threat for some light icing is
there.
With all this said...this is a low confidence snow/sleet accum
forecast for the interior. At this point the most likely
outcome is varying combinations of mixed precip with a light
slushy accum of sleet/wet snow/fzra across the
interior...especially higher elevations (above 750-1000 ft)...by
the time everything winds down Sat am.
