OKpowdah Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I find it hard to believe that with all that moisture in the ohio valley that Nh does not see 1" Qpf even if its .75 our ratios will be high so still expecting 81-14 state wide. plus the 2-6 we had today bringing totals to 10-20" inches We're not going to see a widespread 1"+ but I agree with 8-14" of snow.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Me likey That is an impressive looking storm! WV imagery is such a cool tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I confess, I have no idea how to read that. Bolded numbers on the right are as follows. 1st 2 are BL. 00=0C, 99=-1C, etc. 2nd to reading left to right on the far right column is H8, 3rd H7.

Max Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I am in the SE part of suffield. I know Agawam got 9 and the 8.5 in suffield I believe was the NE part of town. I'm curious to what BDL has. Maybe I got a bad measurement, but there is no way I got 8.5" Well the asos at BDL estimated 0.70" liquid equivalent and with at least 10 to 1 ratios your amount would sound right, but I gotta believe the ratios were more like 12 to 1 or a little higher!

Hailstoned Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Chicopee, Mass had 10" and someone else in Suffield reported 8.5", so how are you way less than those numbers! 7.2" in Monson, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKpowdah Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yeah, 12z NAM had 1.25" QPF here 06z Wed - 06z Thurs, now shows 1" and in many spots 0.75"... It was a categorical decrease of 0.25" everywhere ... so it lopped off 3" of snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 nam gives extreme southern nh 1.25" and most of the state 1" Qpf nothing wrong with that! Eric, 18Z NAM lowers QPF to under 1" for the entire state except a small bit of the SE corner. Most of the southern part of the state is between .75-100. Northern half is now between .5 and .75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 A little while ago, not sure if it was posted. Seems to be faster, now Eh' so Box map dropped this area from 19.2 to 17.0 2 day total - I can live with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Eh' so Box map dropped this area from 19.2 to 17.0 2 day total - I can live with that! They kept us at 18'', but it doesn't really matter. Heavy snow in the morning and early afternoon to light snow through the rest of the day sounds perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpickett79 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 6.8 inches in W. framingham. snowed decently thru 245 nice dumping this morning! right now big snow flakes and PELLETS mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericnh Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I believe the over 1" is in southeast nh. and Centralnh south is in the 1" if I am reading wrong let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 It was a categorical decrease of 0.25" everywhere ... so it lopped off 3" of snow yeah, i guess I'm not too concerned over it though. Especially considering the fact the NAM/GFS showed 0.10" QPF 18 hours before last week's storm and I ended up with 8.5" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just measured 7.0" on the dot... several taken and they were pretty uniform. Much easier measurements when there is no wind really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesun Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yeah! I saw the .70 QPF so that 8.5" report makes sense. Don't know. I'll go out and take a few more measurements, but the ones I took were pretty consistent. Well the asos at BDL estimated 0.70" liquid equivalent and with at least 10 to 1 ratios your amount would sound right, but I gotta believe the ratios were more like 12 to 1 or a little higher!

Today is just the quintessential winter day. Heavy snow for 6 hours then Currier and Ives stuff for the rest of the day and into the night. Wash, rinse, and repeat tomorrow only with heavier snow.

OSUmetstud Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 That is a little surprising! Still freezing rain/drizzle here...ugly light glazing on just about everything since the temp is 19 degrees. It's actually probably freezing drizzle...I bet there isn't a greater than 0C layer aloft..just that the clouds aren't deep and cold enough to contain ice crystals.

It's actually probably freezing drizzle...I bet there isn't a greater than 0C layer aloft..just that the clouds aren't deep and cold enough to contain ice crystals. A lot of people might get freezing drizzle tonight as the lift is light and generally well below the snow growth region. Then the snow start back up tomorrow morning early as the lift deepens again...then the sleet line moves back north again during the event.
