  1. 34” sticking out like a sore thumb. Final total was 36.0”.
  2. Check that. Decent temp drop at sunrise now... -1°. There’s something to these spikes down in temp at sunrise here. I wonder if the rising sun warms the top of the trees and strengthens the inversion briefly until the solar heating reaches the surface.
  3. It really is unreal how we seem to deal with this on Christmas 50% of the time.
  4. I always thought the old airport observers used to lowball it a bit. It’s measured by a nearby COOP observer a bit away from the ASOS since the contract airport observers got terminated. Since then we’ve seen some bigger numbers by CON in that list.
  5. LEB -11° and MWN +16°. MWN is the warmest METAR station in the state and one of the warmest overall. Made it down to 2° here. The chooks seem unfazed, but they’re starting to get used to it now and no wind helps.
  6. I’m all for it. I don’t need a torched rainer on top of this snow. I’ll be rerouting flood waters around my run.
  7. 34.4” I still don’t like that Danbury total. The water equiv is way too high. The observer better have a valid reasoning for it.
  8. Dews all day for Xmas on that euro run.
  9. So this (24.2") will end up being CON's 2nd largest snowstorm on record and the biggest since the blizzard of 1888.
  10. 12° but it never went calm. LEB is the coldest in the state right now with -2°.
  11. Down to 9°. Wonder if we go below zero with the deep fresh pack.
  12. 39.1" lol at seeing my name #1 and even ahead of jspin. I'll enjoy it while it lasts.
  13. I posted about that from cocorahs this morning. I don't trust the obs.
  14. Feb 1969...35.5" and 32" at the 2 Franklin COOPs (depths 56" and 62"). Lakeport 35.9" (depth 57"). Wolfeboro 40" (depth 68"). Apr 1933 was huge around here. Franklin had 35". Newport 31". Wolfeboro Falls 26". Plymouth 26". I'll have to dig for more. Honorable mentions would be Feb 2001 and March 2001 with some totals over 2ft.
  15. I still had nearly 2" of water in my pack.
  16. Too bad you couldn’t get up here yesterday. I mean the snow is still impressive, but I’ve already compacted from 30” to 21” imby. btw...that rest area on the Northfield/Canterbury line has the Canterbury RWIS in front of it. Pound city yesterday... https://vortex.plymouth.edu/mapwall/cgi-bin/display_rwis.php?id=10008&yy=2020&mm=12&dd=17
  17. I guess a 45% chance of AN means a 55% chance of near normal or below.
  18. A new before and after with an image from when the event was over. And then one with compaction included today (didn't want to taint the previous one )
  19. There's a lot of undercatch with snow and the 4" can and it can stick to the rim in paste events. I've tried using it to catch and measure new snowfall in windy conditions in the past and it fills up at a slant and makes it impossible. What's the size of those antifreeze HADS weighing gauges like at SLSN3? Are there any sites in the northeast that use snow pillows for w.e.? I know Hermit Lake has a SNOTEL.
  20. We're best friends now. He's like my Balki.
  21. lol....warmest dews in the US Christmas morning in SNE. Tolland with a higher dew than anywhere in the Gulf of Mexico. If you want higher you need to go to the Bahamas or Cuba. Awesome.
  22. I think we've had more wintry Halloweens than Christmases in the last decade.
  23. I remember that one. It was wedged up here right until the cold fropa.
