ORH_wxman Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I never at any point expected to beat you.....you're were misinterpreting my angst; I merely wanted a nice refresher I stand corrected....but I know deep down inside you are thinking about it because that is what snow weenies do. Don't think for one second I do not know that you aren't eying my 76.2" total right now because I know you are...even though I know you are saying "I can't catch that"...but there is a spot deep down inside that is saying "yeah I can"...we are all snow weenies, so I know how that sick mind works. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I wish that we had some more folks up because I'm dying to know where the R\S line setup....I'll bet it's just inside rt 128. I'd love to call my dad in Woburn ctr, but it's too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I wonder what's going on in the high areas of NW RI...could that be heavy snow there? They're under 35dbz now and that band looks to be strengthening over E CT... Edit...must be snow...Willimantic reporting -SN at 32/32 as of 152am...

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Will, I'll bet this is the type of event where Don in Arlington heights will get about what I do, but the bottom of the hill will have about butkis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 You actually have a lead on me right now (it will be erased to a lead by me after tonight I think)....but I know what you are doing, lol. I know you are realistic, but you also have a weenie in you too. Snowfall disease is a sick thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...this is the type of event where winter hill might get 3.7" and down at ma_blizzard's place in Shrewsbury he checks in with 1.8" and wonders what the hell is going on when he sees my pics tomorrow morning.

nzucker Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Looking at radar, I think it's fairly safe to assume that a bunch of SNE from MQE to NW RI to NE CT is going to get more than expected in this storm. They're under a vicious band right now and there looks to be another area of heavy precipitation developing near Route 9 in CT. Some of the higher elevations could be in for a nice surprise So Will, you're following this from your parent's place right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavier band to my east,(cent mass and RI) looks like its aimed at Will, looks like a heavy band to my south that may hit me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the higher elevations could be in for a nice surprise So Will, you're following this from your parent's place right now? I'm at 840 feet and I think I have close to an inch...maybe. I wish I was back on Winter Hill for this at 955 feet...which might have 1.6" or something...but this isn't going to be an easy snow event. I don't think anyone is getting over 4" which is what would be the forecast-buster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No....believe me, I live here and you hold the llc better, obvioiusly, but it's not at all uncommon for me to make out better with regard to snowfall. I get cf enhancement when they don't, sometimes. Not a slam dunk, at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz The models have really backed off on the epic torch though, seems as if the clipper gives us one last cold shot this weekend, there may be a weak disturbance pulling down some chilly air early next week, and then by Day 9-10 the EPO/NAO are both extremely negative again. Definitely a gradient pattern with the highest above normal anomalies confined to areas to the Southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get cf enhancement when they don't, sometimes. Not a slam dunk, at all. I agree. I know the NE MA climo very well. But I won't lie...I will have lost a lot of my snow mojo if I leave ORH...despite what pistol "bear-hunting" pete says or MPM....ORH and nearby is the snow capital of SNE for populated areas...and that will hurt losing that along with the ice storm climo. While I don't love ice storms, they do "protect" the snow pack quite a bit as I'm sure you saw from my pics earlier tonight that I took on winter hill. (in the epic snow depth thread and my torch thread)...its never cool for a snow weenie to move to a lesser favorable spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I will admit is that icing is FAR more common in N Chelmsford, than it is imby....you are across that magical line that runs from N Billerica into N Tewksbury and Andover. Beyond that line sees very little marine influence....it's like a 2ndary rt 128. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ma blizzard Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 How much did you get in the Feb 23-24 event last year? off the top of my head Im not sure, but I would guess 6"-7" .. My weather records are on my desktop at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
