This one was a bit unique in that it had a really good sig on the north side of the ML warm front. That firehose basically getting lifted over the top of the temp gradient...pretty good recipe for big time rates that can sustain for several hours rather than relying on putrid decaying mesobands.
-
Fatties have recommenced in this stuff after it went to really cruddy flakes for about 20-25 min
-
Nope...not in the NW and W suburbs/exurbs it didn’t. Definitely an old school 128 to 495 storm. Looks like about 15.5” in Holliston...though honestly it would prob be 3-4” more if the snow didn’t fall “in the wrong order”...it was absolute 20 to 1 blower powder for the first half of the event and then it went to slightly denser but still powdery snow...and finally it went to paste. That prob helped compact things down quite a bit despite the insane rates. Hopefully we limp home with a few more.

Looks like Methuen is getting hammered at the moment

I really thought you’d get like 6-8”. Like a Slightly better version of 2/13/14...but just a smidge too much marine influence i guess. Kind of sucks this one couldn’t be a few degrees colder so that there were fewer screw zones.

Just destroyed.
-
Keeps regenerating
-
This is friggin nuts.
-
Can’t believe you only have 6”. That’s some cruddy luck being barely south of the goods. I bet some place like Bellingham has at least 9-10”
-
This thing just blew up over metrowest and 495
-
Nope Holliston at the moment.
-
Hard to get good pics of intensity with a cell phone at night but this is the best I could do.
-
Temp gradient has become less pronounced as the event wears on, but it looks roughly like this
-
It is ridiculous right now.
-
Incoming too...heaviest stuff of the night is just coming in and should make it up by you in the next 30 min. This is probably 3-4” per hour stuff.
-
Visibility must be like 300 yards right now.
-
Just got inside from first round of snow blowing. Absolutely pounding. About 2-3” per hour. Going on 11 inches now.
-
Temp has ticked back nearly a full degree to 28.7F in the last 15 min. Just dumping outside. Snapped this a little while ago. Nearing 9 inches new.
-
This is ridiculous though. Like 2-3” per hour right now. About to make another measurement.
-
CF is getting close or almost overhead. Up to 29.6F here. Snow still powder but we’ll see if that changes in the next couple hours.
-
Maybe another 0.4-0.75? Except windham county is closer to an inch.
-
I wouldn’t go that far but the short term guidance is utterly insane for E MA tonight. Most of them are giving over an inch of additional QPF. Some areas over 1.5”. Not sure if I believe that but whoever can keep their BL temps cool enough is going to absolutely pound for the next 6-10 hours.
-
Said it before but this is a really nice looking storm
-
Yep. Hung them this past fall. Almost fell off the 25 foot ladder doing it.
