Mount Greylock Weather Forecast (1064m)

Yeah, cool site. I glance at it few times a season..


Current freezing line at that level is now in Central PA and moving East. So yeah, Greylock will change to snow later on.

12:15 Radar and temp update:

Sunny skies over Nantucket 49°F
Ice over Hartfords 31°F
Heavy Rain around NYC 35°F

That is a healthy swath of precip falling from Philly to MA... And once again... this could of been a snowstorm and this would of been a 8-12" one.

Radar and Metar Animation 7:30am to 1pm every 30 minutes.

Some areas like Danbury & Hartford reported ice for 4.5hrs. just changed to rain.

Looks like the models are starting to bring back that low off the southeast coast next Friday. That one will need to be watched.

140 Miles apart. One location with ice/rain all morning/day and one location where it hasn't rained and been sunny all morning/day.

[Cambium]

26 Days since Nov. 1st with rain falling.

9 of those with snowflakes. None with a 2" snowfall.

Many of the rain days came after being cold enough for snow a day or 2 before.

Winter to remember for sure so far

Not warming up, still slippery out there. Looks like rain should come in soon.
