ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 A lot of banding setting up to my west...with that stuff now ripping NNW from LI, I think that will bode well for great things a couple hours form now. It could look pretty amazing. Hope my thinking is correct on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Messenger...drop the HRR/ARR whogivesaSHTmodelqpfcutting. Radar tells the story. Most of us are getting 6-12. I don't like the fact that there is OES by you, and the deform seems to be initally nw of me.....substinence maybe, later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 legitimate moderate snow here accumulating quickly. we have joined the party There's no way any of us are at a 1/2SM vis...but at least it's starting to accumulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 What's the deal with all the non-snow in CT? Who saw that one coming? A lot of the amped up RUC runs had a lot of sleet into CT between 00z and 05z. Its matching up well with the mid-level frontogenesis forming well west into W MA and SE NY and NW CT on the SPC analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC48 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 What's the deal with all the non-snow in CT? Who saw that one coming? The non-snow and rain tells me this thing is a little closer to the coast than earlier thought. Boy, I can't wait for this get in here, Boston Area.

MaineJayhawk Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 It's becoming a steady -SN finally here. Hopefully it can last for awhile. A lot of flakes in the air here but the snow growth is laughable. I'd love to stay up to see how this shakes out but 4:30 comes quick. Here's hoping for a surprise.

wxeyeNH Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Fianlly steadyvery light snow has made it to the Plymouth NH area too. We have had snow grain stuff all evening but now flake size is slowly increasing. Just dusting so far and didn't expect much more than this.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I could put up a big flashing banner on every one of those graphics saying "not speaking of totals"...and it wouldn't matter HV. It's almost hilarious. It's like Gollum with the "precious" ring...don't mess with the snow... If that map showed six feet in three hours, different story...then it's awesome. RUC was the "balls" all day, when its pedaling the other way, toss it. One of the more unorthodox outcomes I've seen based on what model forecasts were up through 12z today. I was away from the net all day but traveling form Newton to Greenfield (5-8pm) and ingesting the conditions I went through and what's going on on radar and in mby I will confidentaly say it is an anomaly storm. Fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 A lot of banding setting up to my west...with that stuff now ripping NNW from LI, I think that will bode well for great things a couple hours form now. It could look pretty amazing. Hope my thinking is correct on this. I don't see why it wouldn't. That back edge is slowing and the stuff near LI is moving steadily north. At some point it will slow its latitudinal progression, but I think you'll get hit real good for a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to be actually moving NW, not just N to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 There's no way any of us are at a 1/2SM vis...but at least it's starting to accumulate. Snowing here now... visibility steadily dropping... probably somewhere around 3 miles since I can't see the lights on Meredith Neck anymore.

TheSnowman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 it appears the coastal front is just to my southeast....may provide some extra lift as the main slug comes up from the SSW.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I don't like the fact that there is OES by you, and the deform seems to be initally nw of me.....substinence maybe, later. I think I'd be more concerned about the western kicker than anything. No doubt it'll be good but for how long. A lot of the amped up RUC runs had a lot of sleet into CT between 00z and 05z. Its matching up well with the mid-level frontogenesis forming well west into W MA and SE NY and NW CT on the SPC analysis. Looks like it washes out with the heavier precip by most reports/webcams too. Same as what I had going on here earlier. lots of people said mix to start transitioning to snow around 11 or 12..we flipped over to snow here in Willington Ok, thanks. -- Quite the struggle in NW MA...dry air starting to poke in. Meanwhile it's getting epic in the south. http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?product=N0R&rid=enx&loop=yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping for a surprise. It has picked up here. Maybe Mark is right about pushing moderate snows. Canterbury RWIS (right on Northfield southern border) is between 1/2-3/4SM now. AFN is 3/4SM. My precip sensor is 15 out of 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROOSTA Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 This will be the fasting closing thread in weeniedom history. Heavy needles here still waiting. Just one-big THUMPin DUMPin.

ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I just walked outside...that is surely not light snow. Of that I am sure. it is accumulating rapidly. You can have 1 mile or 3/4 mile visibility and good dendritic growth to get good accumulation rate but its still light snow. In fact I've seen pretty moderate-esque accumulation rates near 1.5-2 mile vis before if the dendrites are good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
