    ORH has been rotting under an outer band for like 2 hours now. I’m sure Ray will be happy about that.

    Man that cape Ann to scooter band intensifying again a little. It just won’t quit. Awesome storm there. Snow growth has drastically improved here which is kind of weird because I’m right on the edge of the darker echoes and I figured drift would cause it to stay east but something is helping out….maybe the boundary layer continuing to cool is putting some of the lower level lift into the DGZ.
  3. ORH_wxman
    Definitely some bands trying to fill in over central areas but the peak goods look like they are pivoting now near BOS. Not gonna get much further west.
  4. ORH_wxman
    Yeah right as it tries to pull east there is one final pulse with H5 closing off pretty good.
  5. ORH_wxman
    You can see the latest image I posted has it surging a bit more to the west so you’re prob just getting back into it
  6. ORH_wxman
    Come to papa…trying to push west
  7. ORH_wxman
    Maybe another 2-3” in central areas? Unless someone gets stuck under one of those thin bands. Best forcing is well east at this point…
  8. ORH_wxman
    That’s a good image and shows how the elongated low helped keep the best fronto banding pinned to the coast. If that midlevel center is not as elongated, then that fronto get shoved back much further west.

    Nice subby zone just opened up here. Vis definitely up near half a mile for the first time since predawn. Hopefully that heavier stuff just to the east gets here as it looks like it’s trying to make another surge….death band will never make it but that 25-30dbz stuff could.

    Yeah the Asos QPF is going to be horrific and even melting down won’t be super easy since you gotta find a spot that isn’t drifted too bad. I may cut a biscuit at the end of this just to see. Thankfully there’s a lot woods around the house so it limits the drifting some.

    Getting a few dendrites mixing back in with the baking powder. Noticed the echoes slightly darkening again…hopefully we can pull off another couple hours of better growth but we seem to be right on the edge of the baking powder/dendrite line right now. Seems like 25 dbz or so on the box radar is the magic number.

    Yeah the amped runs were definitely horrible. But it’s hard to ignore some of those GFS runs that we’re struggling to give BOS 8-9” too and might have failed to give me warning amounts. Though I think if we look solely at the midlevels, the GFS may have been better…but its dry bias in these coastals showed up for sure which probably made some of the solutions look worse than they actually were.
  13. ORH_wxman
    GFS was trash too until really late in the game. Model guidance overall struggled in this one for sure.

    Just got back in from snow blowing. Had near 12” on most measurements but it varied a bit with the wind. Was hoping to crack 18” but that may be tough unless we can get the good snow growth back in here. It’s gone to baking powder the last 45 minutes or so. My guess is we add another 3-4” and call it a storm. The wind has been really impressive though. This is the windiest snowstorm I’ve had since maybe Feb 2013.
  15. ORH_wxman
    Looks like about a foot here eyeballing. About to go measure and run the snow blower again.
  16. ORH_wxman
    Def gonna be a few 30 burgers I think in SE MA unless everything falls apart quickly this afternoon.
  17. ORH_wxman
    That is an epic band. Getting stronger too you near BOS and north shore
  18. ORH_wxman
    Vis is even lower than before
  19. ORH_wxman
    Lol yep. He’s done several launches this morning.
  20. ORH_wxman
    500mb Wind still SSE at stoneybrook is good to see.
  21. ORH_wxman
    My buddy is down at suny stoneybrook doing balloon launches. 16z sounding
  22. ORH_wxman
    Measured 9” about 10 min ago.
  23. ORH_wxman
    Some better push west now
  24. ORH_wxman
    Maybe a little bit it’s not done on INT west up here. I can see a good push west now near cape Ann and off SE NH
  25. ORH_wxman
    The trees behind those snow cover cars are about 150-200 yards away
