January 26-27 Snowstorm Disco III

[TheSnowman]

I just noticed that if I can get 13" for the rest of the month, I will be in the Top 5 Snowiest months of All-Time.

[dryslot]

Have some more...

[weathafella]

BUFKIT looks nice after 03z Thursday for many areas.

We're getting 6+. I'm confident of that. If we can stay all snow, maybe double that.

[40/70 Benchmark]

Will and Ray are probably holding hands together right now. They must love where they sit with this.

It's been a foregone conclusion for a couple of days in, my mind.

I hope Messenger saved those posts that I told him to when we argued.

[moneypitmike]

Dare I ask about NYC? I'm hoping I can cancel my Wednesday meeting down there. I can based on the snow up here, but it's easier if thye're getting some as well.

[butterfish55]

Bring it.

Thanks for posting these. I wish that they had one for the KBOS offices in the industrial park, because that's the closest to me.

[Cold Miser]

We're getting 6+. I'm confident of that. If we can stay all snow, maybe double that.

Where are you located?

Not looking for exact city, just approximate.

I thought you were Boston area.

[dryslot]

Looking good for us. Eagerly awaiting the Doc. My co-workers pestered me about this storm, wanted me to give an accumulation so I threw out 6-10 with a caveat to ask me on Wednesday for a final call. After today's modeling, I say that was conservative. However, this could still go into the poop bucket.

The cuttoff to the west on the heavy precip was a concern of mine on last nights Euro, The 1.00" line dropped pretty far SE from where it was at 12z yesterday lot less wiggle room to the NW..

[ski MRG]

What did the gfs show for GC? Using the phone which is dieing due to cold. Currently 3.TIA

[weathafella]

Yes...Boston area.

[CT Rain]

nice to see BUFKIT plenty cold for snow here!

[40/70 Benchmark]

If you live in MA, CT and RI and are outside of the cc canal, the immediate s coast and are concerned, then you are wrong.

[Ginx snewx]

You have a new name, Bubble Boy, he lives in Brookine

lol - "Bubble boy"?

Why is that?

About what?

[Ginx snewx]

What did the gfs show for GC? Using the phone which is dieing due to cold. Currently 3.TIA

They make these solar chargers which keep the battery warm, very cheap and good for people like you who work outside hunting polar bears.

Pete you know the drill for you with SD 850's way high. Epic La Epic

[weathafella]

If you live in MA, CT and RI and are outside of the cc canal, the immediate s coast and are concerned, then you are wrong.

I agree. This is trending towards an area wide snow bomb.

[ORH_wxman]

About what?

Yeah if you are concerned about any mixing with sleet, then just about everyone is fair game....if you are concerned about a net gain in snow/ice pack, then his boundaries are probably fair.

[40/70 Benchmark]

That coolwx gave BOS:

Also,,,GGEM is a crushing! A bombing low and WAY colder than any prior runs. This is going to be a good storm. I understand I may need to helmut up for a few hours but in the end I'm going to have a big addition to the piles.

Could someone please post that coolwx sounding for KBED....thx.

[Typhoon Tip]

Interesting ... I have seen a Freezing Spray alert in coastal New England in years!

[40/70 Benchmark]

Yes.

[sankaty]

Bufkit isn't run for all stations. The closest for you is GYX (Gray) and KAUG (Augusta).

Check out this link to find other stations:

http://www.meteor.iastate.edu/~ckarsten/bufkit/data/index.html

I wish Bufkit ran for KMMK, but I have to extrapolate between KHFD and KHVN.

Good luck!

[Zeus]

I agree. This is trending towards an area wide snow bomb.

I'm not on board with that yet.

I'm in Jeff's "when it's between a whiff and a changeover, I have trouble being excited" camp.

[Ginx snewx]

lol - "Bubble boy"?

Why is that?

OT and I have to be extra careful but dude Jerry has posted about a thousand times where he lives and his Boston Obs. LOL

Looking great here man, maybe a sleet mix for a while but all frozen and if the cards fly right Jackpot is not out of the question, we are in the zone.

[weatherwiz]

nice to see BUFKIT plenty cold for snow here!

Bufkit is rocking for us!

[CT Rain]

Bufkit is rocking for us!

It really is incredible

[Baroclinic Zone]

Yeah if you are concerned about any mixing with sleet, then just about everyone is fair game....if you are concerned about a net gain in snow/ice pack, then his boundaries are probably fair.

At this point I expect to mix with rain for quite a time. No way around it. I'll let the storm prove m wrong but I'm hedging my expectations imby to 6" top on the back end.

[Ginx snewx]

Yes.

Ray Bufkit 15.3

Except for you basically
