3”? Auld lang syne?

We’re in a lot of NW flow with numerous potent northern stream shortwaves, but given the flow and the frequency of them we can’t get enough spacing nor enough digging in time for bigger systems. That’s a really strong vortmax coming through tomorrow, but there’s another one on its heels over Lake Ontario while it’s over us.

It’s not that close. I think the best hope is to get the southern system close enough and then elicit some pressure falls as the northern stream vortmax approaches and trigger another inverted trough. When you loop H5/vorticity there really doesn’t seem to be a chance for the northern piece to be able to dive in and phase in time at our longitude.

Euro gone wild on the ME coast

How do they compare with sardines? I like sardines minus the heads. The chickens get those.

12z euro has a weak, brief inverted trough setup across C NH/SW ME as that H5 vortmax passes through.

Pope just wants warm weather so he can get back on that crotch rocket. It’s tough to pop wheelies in this weather.

We all know where everyone stands by this point. Debating CC and CO2 is beating a dead horse now on this subforum. We’re in the middle of winter with the potential for some action…let’s try to keep it to weather and save this talk for a rainy April day.

Damn I missed a CC debate with Wolfie?

An inch of fluff in Jan. Be still my heart.

His Davis has been up all day so I asume he has power.

Finished with 1.52” of liquid. Nice drink.

Kinda catching up now…I do see some models trying to pop a secondary near the Cape.

The surface low tracks through NNE…this sucker is moisture starved. But SW flow over the ocean waters will help moisten it up for SE MA.

Picked up a quick 1/4”. At least that gives some traction out there.

Down to 32.0°. Max ended up being 32.6° this morning. Terrible.

Think Greta

Tippy

1/8” radial still looks impressive on the trees. Imagine that amount on each side of the branch. If you had more than that there would be a lot more outages south of here. If you’re measuring flat ice, that’s twice as much the radial amount. So if I had 1/8” radial here that equivalent to 1/4” of flat ice. And yeah, it’s an adventure for me going down the driveway or to the run. I wanted to get my dormant plants some rain so I stupidly carried about 20 pots from the garage to outside. The pots were subfreezing so they froze to the driveway. I was eventually able to pull them out in the past half hour, but that was almost a stupid mistake.

Yeah that looks interesting

Here’s the NHEC map. The bigger numbers seem to be Wilmot, Moultonborough, and Conway.

Pack is at 5” of waterlogged cement. I put a ruler up on the stratus gauge and it’s around 1 3/8”. I’ll estimate what fell before 1230am but I assume it’s enough to put me over 1.5”. We take the drink.

Yeah temps will bump up somewhat near or at fropa when we start mixing out. It may not mean much though since dews will start dropping too.
