Snow arrived right on cue 2-4 am Wednesday. The mixing line arrived on time too with sleet
and freezing rain working north from the shoreline throughout the morning. But one part of the storm exceeded
expectations…the front end thump of snow.
We had snowfall rates of 1”-3” per hour for a while leaving DOT crews helpless
to keep up with the mess. Snowfall rates ranged from 3”-5” in southeastern
CT. With 6”-10” for a majority of the
state. Most of us have around a foot of
snow on the ground when you combine the snow from the last storm to the snow
that fell today!
After two winter storms this week alone, many are looking
forward to a much needed break from the snow (and sleet and freezing rain). You
can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that we have at least three dry days on
the way. But a lot of people have been worried about the potential for another
bigger snow storm this weekend. Right now, the latest trend is to bring the
storm farther out to sea. That means a glancing blow with a few snow showers
and a little accumulation but NOT a major nor’easter.
