Intensity guidance seems to have underestimated storm strength the last several years although if my recollection is right they have mostly been in the Gulf.
What a fantastic thunderstorm yesterday evening. Best in years. There were really no strong winds but numerous close lightning strikes. The rain came down in sheets and the final total was 5.46". Lots of road flooding.
My daughter got accepted to Northeaster's grad program iin speech and language pathology. I would appreciate any suggestions as to affordable housing. She has a car.
Wow. 2"/hr rates. One hour since last post which was 1.75". One hour later and 3.75" now and still heavy snow but I'm right on the rain line. Just beautiful outside.
I'm probably wierd in this respect, but I get more enjoyment out of seeing the snow fall0
than how much if any accumulates. Age I guess, although I've got a tractor/loader so accumulation is not really a problem.
Looks to me that by late afternoon we may end up with only an inch or two of additional snow accumulation due to a possible period of rain. In any case I'm going to enjoy another round of snow coming during daylight hours. This has been a great winter in that respect.
Your sounds about right. I'm about 10 miles north of you and measured 3.5",with very little sleet. Being north was no advantage, I missed out on the thump this morning.
