You must be on OT by now Ron.
I haven't seen this type of low level warm air infiltration in my lifetime of weather observation. there was a warm air band, like 35-38F no more than several hundred yards wide that swept in about 500 feet above the ground. Almost all the way up to BOS.

I think it was a moonbat plot, to prove global warming.

Probably 3-4 in Tiverton, but it's an ugly mix...

Buckman, when you wrote that it was snowing like hell.
However, for most of the day, this warm air low level intrusion really put the dampers on any snow accumulation.
The weather guys were really bummed about it. still are.

The Fox weatherman last night was apologizing up and down for his forecast! I found it amuzing. I've never gotten all worried about too many of these storms in the past but my wife likes to get all excited when they forecast something that is a week away. "It's going to snow a foot next weekend honey so we can't do anything!" I'm a wait and see type but be prepared for anything is my moto!

I think every weather person on every channel was doing the same........they were all unanimous in forecasting a BIG storm. I was asked last week: What job could you keep when your wrong 50% of the time....?

Can't fool with or out guess Mother Nature!

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

MY wife stayed home

because the first forecast.......
said the storm was starting much earlier than it did
so that bad prediction canceled out some of her overtime
