  1. GFS is snow to IP/ZR here tomorrow morning. It starts out near isothermal from just above the sfc to almost 800mb. Eventually H9 gets around 0.6C so maybe we can keep it frozen.
  2. Yeah NAM soundings aren't gonna cut it for here tomorrow morning...too much WAA around H9. We'll see what the globals say.
  3. Quite a few op runs are getting 0.30-0.40” back this way tomorrow morning. GFS soundings are borderline around H85-H9, but my hunch is mostly snow with a little mangled, refrozen flakes or sleet pellets mixed in. We’ll see what 12z brings…it’s an interesting forecast.
  4. Well you have to do the best you can with whatever restrictions you have. Some have HOAs, some have wives. Just get the station high enough above the roof to limit radiation and turbulence issues…5-10ft at least.
  5. IIRC your development was lacking many trees? That may help you wind wise, but you're still only at 15ft. I would almost sacrifice the wind in order to have the temp and rain at 2m. I wouldn't want a temp sensor above the roof due to radiation issues. You'll get more undercatch with rain due to turbulence as well. Just my $0.02.
  6. They admit the upgrade has improvements, but also some degradations...
  7. I've been feeling that 22nd system for a couple of days now...was just waiting to see some model truth of it coming west with the southern stream system. It just has that feel of something that "wants" to phase sooner. You can see the surface isobars kinking back toward the northern stream almost south of NYC. It almost seems like the models have an event horizon with these things...get 2 shortwaves that are strong enough, close enough, and then they develop a sooner attraction. We'll see.
  8. This may be the last chance for some coastal locations to have a chance at a white Christmas ever again.
  9. The 2 Northfield coco sites were 7.0”/0.70” and 6.0”/0.63”. So we’re all in the same ballpark. It looked like north of here was doing better last night based in radar and the coco totals confirm that. Lots of 7-8” obs west of Lake Winni.
  10. Last intermediate sample was 1.6”/0.20”. So the total so far is 5.1” new with 0.50” liquid. Snow steady with decent growth tight now. Down to 27.4°.
