I took a look at the pattern the day after Christmas and ripped everything down too

62 ORH is a torch. Still some room to go up across eastern areas if it can fully mix out

57F orh, should see plenty of 60s across E MA.

Never managed to really mix out today in NH. I had a brief spike to 44, but back into the 30s now. Very stagnant air.

Looking at the soundings it's mostly just garbage mixing giving those 2m Ts. Should mix a little better than modeled with some light SW flow kicking in by the afternoon. Even NAM mos is 48 for MHT

I was in Windham still, so east of ASH. We may have have been closer to 18-19", but I was still a fairly young weenie and cant remeber exactly. I just looked at the old PNS ...Dracut 23.5" and ASH 20.5". I didnt have access to radar or anything at school (5th grade I think) and had no clue wtf was happening. I remember forecasts of 1-3", then wmur saying 2-4" as I left for school. It was all over by the time school got out, but a mess. I doubt we ever see a bust like that again, and wonder what today's models would have been showing.

One of my favorites, helped solidify my emerging snow weenie. I rememeber being at school, staring out into <100 yard vis all morning. Teachers dumbfounded over what was happening outside. Busses stuck all over trying to get kids home with 20" otg.

Finally winding down. 1.5"

+SN. Roads must be a disaster with how fast the temp dropped below freezing.

Dumping here on the northern edge of those squalls

Yeah my wife works at a hospital in MHT and said the power is out all over, and they are on generator power. Was definitely not that strong here a few miles south.

Just had some grapuel/small hail mixed in along the front. Wind roaring behind it.

Yeah that's pretty impressive. Might have been aided by convective cells earlier. Lots of reports of stuff down between here and Manchester. I have power, but can hear the hum of gennys in the distance.

The west side of the First CT Lake gets nasty on ESE winds. Looks like the COOP station hit 54mph before dropping obs. Probably 60+ easily in more exposed areas.

50KT MHT @715am. Solid wind by SNH standards

Denver is about to fall off a cliff. They were able to get some compressional warming ahead of the front and managed to hit 50F. Soon a snowstorm and below 0F tonight.

Could be nasty for PDX. With a well placed high, the cold air drainage through gorge can be as stubborn as the CAD regions of NE. Pretty common for the them to stay below freezing for 6-12+ hours longer than even the high res models. Also, this has been the winter of yore so far for Vancouver. Multiple 10cm+ events, and they just grabbed 30cm yesterday. Another 10-20cm on the way too. Huge events for them.

Still waiting for ice on anything decent sized in my area. Swamps and small ponds might be manageable. I've heard of guys getting out from Central NH northward

Yeah. I do think there's a window near and around fropa for higher gusts, but I'm not sold on widespread damaging winds locally.

That's a frigid airmass on the backside. It ends up moderating considerably for us on SW flow, but that run has DFW flirting with 0F Fri AM.

If you finish it off you may get a benchmark track for 0z

Still gonna be a pretty solid front ender with the high position, but its gonn be followed by a screamer

@NHDrySlot is too lazy to post, but he got 5" at 500'in Bedford, NH.

Even the north side of town along there derry line had 2"+ from yesterday morning, while I just had a little slush. So, a couple miles north of me probably tripled my storm total.

Very sloppy 1" overnight
