40/70 Benchmark Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 On 2/2/2011 at 8:09 AM, ORH_wxman said: Not surprising...some of us were discussing how >12" with just the 2nd part might be tough to come by. The synoptic setup didn't really support it. Its still possible someone gets bombed in a 6h period, but its still a SWFE with a dyslot racing NE. So we thought the 20-30" amounts were kind of ridiculous. This doesn;t count some upslope areas in the Greens where after the main synoptic stuff passes, they could get mesoscale fluff. Right....I'm happy with where we are headed relative to my 12-18" call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free_man Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 light snow falling. Looking good for 6-9 additional, which makes for a nice 12-14"+ total as we were thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Absolutely remarkable that 31" of my 72" this season is presently measureable on the ground....that is extremely rare here on the cp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free_man Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Is BOX still clear-air rad mode from last night? I forget the on-site indicators, not really up to speed with it. It says volume coverage pattern 21 fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed the irony part right after I replied...thought maybe that's what you meant. Well at that pace precip could start winding down here in CT by mid morning...maybe 10ish? Given it's 4:00 AM now and most reports are IP/SN here in CT we may not see any major issues with icing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think the heavy precip was close to finished by 10-12pm there...though the leftover frdz, beyond the heavy heavies sn/ip/zr could be an understated issue, too.

ORH_wxman Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 HFD over to 1/2 SN now...Ryan can you confirm? Thats a low vis, so there must be at least 80% flakes even if there's still pellets mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
