I find in these cases EC radar gets the leading edge of the REAL precip (not virga) quite well.

Cold day today. The highest I saw was -2.6c and now it is -3.6c. It will be starting as powder, when it starts... Monty gets buried tonight!

Looks pretty dynamic in the short term. After the heavy rain on Friday, 850mb temps drop to almost -10c again.

Almost east coast-like.
