  1. Man roads were a bear until about exit 17. 93 didnt even seem plowed from 19 to 18. Not that much snow here in CON though. Maybe an inch?
  2. 2.5” new with 0.15” w.e. Still snowing at varying intensity. Nbd overall, but bad timing with that heavy band at. The morning commute.
  3. Nice weenie mid level band on the Nam FOR c/n nh 9-15Z TOMORROW MORNING.
  4. When NYC is initially in the ball game oftentimes we start off cold enough for good ratios (15:1) and then transition to the crappier 9:1. The problem is the higher density snow on top can ruin your fluff a bit whereas fluff just floats on top of a dense base. You just have to think of the ratios almost as another level of ptype transition zones...i.e. fluff > normal snow > dense sugar > sleet > frz rain > rain. I find I tend to be near 0F at the sfc up here at the onset to pull off a period of fluff in a SWFE. Of course that's just my general rule of thumb...they don't all behave the same.
  5. I'm thinking maybe in mid June I'm going to try to steal a Nunavut snowstorm.
  6. Heavy, heavy fog. A little slick too after an overnight mix.
  7. Looking more meh here, but still wouldn't rule out a few inches.
  8. Yeah. I must’ve just missed them. It’s funny because I looked for them at the time too. #old
  9. That was in reference to the sounding levels. Not the 2D upper dynamic maps.
  10. I recall talking about the soundings, but not the multiple 2D map levels. Maybe I just missed them there.
  11. Some of that includes the next 24hrs.
  12. Wow. Pivotal added a ton of new high res euro levels/maps.
  13. Falls in the early morning to limit sun angle damage.
  14. The GFS blows the sfc boundary up to CON...puts me on the north side of the gradient. We'll see about that. I'd presume the northerly drain holds better over the interior.
  15. Sure...I'm more worried about the models showing 3-5" here.
  16. Another event where i’m torn between snowblower or shovel. Will probably blow it since a bigger one is coming and I need a packed layer to avoid throwing rocks.
  17. And the rocks were the solution at CON...not the problem. They originally had dark mulch down around the ASOS. The compromise was white rocks. They’re so worried about a couple tenths warming per decade, but no one wants to grow grass and maintain it at a proper height. lol
