Euro is backing off a bit on the backdoor cold push. Near 70F from LWM to PSM on Sunday. The door creeps into E-C NH, but doesn't make it to me. GFS was doorless here as well.
I think it’s overdone too, but other models still have the wedge cutting into the CAD zone in NH. Hopefully it gets overwhelmed by the WAA. I don’t need 30s and +RA while it’s speedos and coronas by the Mass border.
I added my 6.9" to the cocorahs map. The map is a little weird as it should be rotated clockwise about 20-30 degrees. There had to have been a weenie sliver of 6-8" going back to those Windsor county VT obs. The 7.9" is Danbury. They had 7.9" with 0.35" liquid which was a similar ratio to my 6.9"/0.25". Pretty cool.
lol. I’m watching cocorahs obs come in on the east side of town of 2-3”. wtf.
I’m in CON now and there’s almost nothing down here. It almost doesn’t seem believable, but I’m strict when it comes to measuring and I’ve been doing it 25 years. Maybe Lisa can get some daylight pics. I will say there didn’t seem to be as much out by Market Basket...maybe 3-4”? And when we left it wasn’t snowing there. As we headed west toward downtown Northfield it was a whiteout again. So there were a lot of mesoscale things going on. Pretty wild to get wide ranges over short distances in this area.
We're pretty far from GYX so the beam overshoots us quite a bit in these lower level precip events. You get drift below the beam too...especially with snowfall.
I had 4 different periods of snow. The first 2 were with the squall warning. I had the first 2" in about 30 mins while in the covered run with the chickens cleaning up their daily mess. Then the next one came in which is the vid I posted. That was about a half inch, but halfway through the winds picked up to probably 30-35mph (24mph on the sheltered Davis). Then I snowblowed the driveway to go to the store and then came in to shower. That's when that streamer came through. That was another 2.5" in probably 30-40 minutes. We were running out of time so I just put the truck in 4wd and we left for the store. There was snow covered roads from my house all of the way to Market Basket in Tilton. I can't recall ever driving like 3" on the strip in Tilton. Then we hit another squall on the way home that dropped the additional ~2" I presume. Crazy night. It felt like one of those deformation bands.
Yeah...it's going to be tough to melt it all now. If we got 12-18 hours of near 60F dews it'd probably be close, but it'll probably fail and end up low 40s.
I only managed a few hours of sleep last night so I was hoping for an early one...instead I'll be snowblowing after this 10pm dinner.
It won’t stop....gah. What a bear of a drive to market basket. Bad accident in Tilton where 132 meets main st. I had to go home in a raging blizzard, up, my hill, and then down. White knuckle drive.
Pretty rare for the snow to be heavy enough that it reflects the IR light back to my cam like a ball of light. Usually that only happens with dense fog.
