Lots of warm air flooded into the eastern half of the state. It was whats called an ocean front that sets up, similar to a sea breeze in the summer. It stayed all snow from about Plymouth northward because it was falling so fast it didn't have time to completely melt. I suspect we changed over to some sleet/ice at around the time of this image last night. Regardless, the snow was very heavy and saturated. One walk around the neighborhood shows lots of branches down and being weighed down by heavy snow.One other thing to note is how cold it remained in interior MA and CT. That is where the highest snowfall totals are being reported. Back there, the snow was fluffy but there was much more.
