Even the initialization of the graphic has PWM at 3-6". PWM was 10" this AM.
-
Legit cold. -- What's interesting on that map is the temp gradient between SLK and BVT the same as CAR and PTOWN (22°).
-
Average pack in PWM is 11", down from 20" exactly 2 weeks ago. In that time we've had no new snow, two days in the 50's, several more in the 40's, and 0.49" rain. With the cold today, I was able to walk on top of the pack without breaking through. And I'm not NNE climo - far from it. My point is: the pack across NNE will need a lot more than this cutter to make any kind or significant dent.

LOL @ "warm enough to wear shorts". What a wildly subjective metric to use to prove a point. Especially from a supposed MET.

Friend of mine lived on Route 20 in Brimfield during the 6/1/11 outbreak. Said the same. In fact was what made him look outside and immediately go to the basement.
-
Full 6+ weeks earlier, too. Congrats!
-
You might appreciate the cloud that rolled through PWM about an hour ago.
-
Depth in PWM this AM is 12". Will still be here Friday.
-
The words say drinks but dryslot's eyes say weeeeeed. Enjoy guys.
-
Only a Trace here but pack didn't budge, even with 0.45" rain. Average depth is 13", which is what it was this time Thursday.
-
Even down here. Went ice fishing on Great Pond in Cape the other day - less than a mile from the Atlantic - and the thickness of the ice was 16-18". We've hit 50F twice this week, but I'm assuming the ice will be safe to fish this weekend. Can't imagine it being that damaged from a few warm days and PC skies.
-
Wow, managed to get down to 27° for the low early this AM. Average pack depth is down only 1" from yesterday, even with a high of 54°, average depth is now at 14".
-
Average depth was at 15" this morning. Probably 13", maybe 12" tomorrow morning. GFS is a little more interesting for Thursday here, fwiw.
-
Awesome. The AC alone is going tk be worth it, can't wait for that. However I SHOCKED to hear your bill wasn't over a thousand dollars like that one guy on facebooks.
-
Not really. You're not getting any more or less accurate that way. Make multiple measurements on your board and record the average to the tenth. NWS has us going to the tenth on new snow and whole on depth.
-
Glad I went the heat pump route. Installed solar and heat pumps in December. Have paid <$100 in electric in total since. Even with solar minimum it's covering 90% of my electric costs WITH heat pumps.
-
No kidding. Looked like a SWFE on 'roids.
-
Agreed. After the last several years this is such a welcomed gift.
-
Yes, pack was at 19" this AM. I know there have been packs like this in the past but this is the first I've recorded 20" for PWM (4th season). Like NW_GYX said, it's usually his area that has deep pack, not us. Looking at CoCoRAHS, it is odd to see the coast with a deeper pack than inland. We're only talking 4-6" difference but still.
-
I'm with you. I want a gradual melt, I'm set with the mud.
-
I think so. This'll likely be our peak pack. The fact that coastal areas have a deeper pack tham 20 miles inland is nuts. Today's fresh and deep pack, plus harsh cold/wind isn't something we've experienced in the past several years.
-
Thanks, 4th season. It's the best. Is the CF essentially marine air on an east wind slamming into an artic airmass?
-
Also had nearly 1.50 liquid and only a few hours of sleet.
-
Deep winter.
-
Coastal front for the win I guess.
