Radders Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 NWS Albany's new snow map really cut down totals across Dutchess and eastern Ulster. Yes, I saw that.. And it makes sense considering how warm the mid levels are looking in the model guidance now... Tomorrow is going to be a horrible day of sleet and ice.

Tpalm5 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Snow coming down pretty good now here in Orange County, 4.5"-5" so far. The snow has become a rods/graupel/flake mix. Interesting to note reporting station 1500' in elevation on Schunnemunk Mountain has dropped a few degrees to 14* in the past hour. http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KNYNEWWI5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear pinging I am a bit concerned with the sw flow precip taking a beating coming down out of the high ground in NE PA and Sully.

IrishRob17 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yeah, not good, Tom. I've been busy this morning, the change because they see more ice coming than any with round 2 I'm guessing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 PppppInnGGGG Well that burst put down another two inches of fluffyfluff in about 25 minutes. Now it's all pellets/frzg mist and sleet. Had I measured once an hour I'd put it at about 7" but because of a few rounds of sleet and pellets it's right at 4.5" for the storm. I did another A job on the driveway and knocked all the banks back and down so now they're only five feet tall Used about 15 pounds of salt after I finished so hopefully the freezing sheeite for the next 12 hours doesn't turn the driveway into a sheet. Temp is dead on at 20* NEXT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Speaking of the next one... I just spent the last few minutes looking at "the big picture." That high up north seems to be sinking south just a tick. If you look at a 12 hr water vapor loop the midwest storm looks like it's making it's right turn just a little bit south of the one we're finishing up with now. Pressure falls are moving east of north now and pressure rises across southern Canada are moving south into MI and MN. Judging by the intensity of the winds across the upper midwest it looks like that trend will continue and the next storm "should" get bounced a little further south. Obviously I'm reaching here but ... I don't want freezing rain or too much more sleet. I'm looking for a way to make it snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for a way to make it snow I am literally on the fence with the heavy precip coming on the next storm.. I think the 850s cut directly over my house according to the Euro! I am sure there will be a nasty warm layer at 800 that will cause pingers, but perhaps I can get away with just a sleet fest and less freezing rain!!

Juliancolton Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 That last little bit of precip from round 1 is training over my house, and it's all snow at this point. Probably have an additional half inch over southern and northern Dutchess because of that band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Radders - I'm giving up on models for the next 30 or so hours. Time for good ol' weather analysis. I haven't drawn a real map since my college met courses but I think I remember enough to teach my kids a bit about it and this is textbook stuff happening right now.

gravitylover Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I have a feeling that all of the models are going to be wrong for a while because the initialization is wrong on the high up north. Just watch ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
