Overperformer here. Stein dead imby. Webbed feet giving him natural selection over other humans right now. 1.15" and counting.

5 day mean...ha ha

0.92" Losing top soil now. idw to hear about Stein for at least a month.

Snowing on MWN and in the last 2hrs the snow depth has been increasing at the Hermit Lake plot. Looks like snow mixing in for Phin on his cam?

Pretty impressive synoptic +RA right now. As usual I have flooding around my run and an f'ed up gutter on the backside. I was able to each out the bathroom window to sorta fix it, but at least it's only a few drips now instead of a sieve. Not sure what's wrong with my run drainage as the pipe is clear on the back side. Either there's ice or woodchips in the pipe buried underneath. I've got the water running around the run and down the back field where my pawpaw orchard is now. I've built up the run with enough woodchips now that it's turning into a mini moat. My soil temp at 6" is still showing 32F so it's still frozen down there and all of this water is pooling/flowing through the yard without soaking in. I was hoping these 41F rains would get down to that level and help melt that frost layer, but no dice yet. Of course it's thawed out near the house and all of the water is freely seeping into my basement. 41.3F +RA 0.57" as of right now.

Following week looks like Moosup doggy doo with the block right now. This week may end up better.

The block is real on all ensembles. It’s far enough out though that we hope and pray it weakens a bit and we can get more westerly flow in here at times rather than prolonged retrograding depression.

Won’t be that warm. Probably 40s at best Friday even in the lower els. You may not get out of the 30s.

Euro backed off on the intensity of the cold a bit for late week. I wasn't really buying the -20C 850s into S NH at that range. Still a good cold shot though.

Yeah, you're impressed and it was realistically a meh winter up there. You'll love it when we get some real cold and frequent storms. Your area should be able to produce some wire-to-wire Nov-Apr packs. Not much worked out this year except for that one good storm you had and the Dec biggie down here. You win some; you lose some.

heh...8”

Not happening this time of year with W flow and some sun.

Got up to 71F. Now showers and storms around. 63/54 -TSRA currently.

67/61 with sun. Love it.

Best storms of the year today?

I’ve seen mosquitoes here in Feb when it’s 40F in the evening. lol

Honestly I haven’t been following it enough. I’ve been checked out for the past week outside of watching for backdoors. I’ll look more later after I lock the birds up.

Just like the Xmas eve torch with 60F dews. 3ft vanished faster than Pope after a bust.

The section on the SW side of my house/garage is really going nuts in a few years. I know we’ve talked about this before, but it was basically 2 years for it to really start spreading. I’m torn on whether I’d do it again only because it can be hard to stop once it gets going, but it torches so bad over there that all cold season grass just died and I don’t have the well to keep watering it.

It’s totally an American thing. Most people from other countries don’t understand it.

Yeah I posted about that earlier. Huge difference in the melt today with 63/53 and little sun versus 63/13 and all day blues.

Maybe he can post some of the 24hr GFS QPF maps from over the years?

We had a nice ZR storm up here in April a few years ago. It can happen with a strong enough ageostrophic flow and a thick enough deck even during the day and a little below freezing. It doesn’t take much insolation to ruin the accretion though. A good SWFE has no problem socking us in to the dark misery though.
