CoastalWx Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 2-3' of wet snow with 50-60mph winds and TSSN. I'll take it. It's subjective anyways, but I'm pretty sure my snowpack peaked along with many others. Sure it's possible we have a crazy March, but that storm was so anomalous. I'll never forget it.

CoastalWx Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 On that note, euro has a miller b threat on Monday...lol. Verbatim it's a little too far north, but better then the 60 it was showing a couple of days ago. It passes right over sne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzucker Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 It tries to almost due a little inv action on us at hr 168 and hr 174. Does the warm-up ever arrive or do we get a couple of sneaky cold/snow threats next week? Also, where does this Miller B form and track to?

Tropopause_Fold Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 i wasn't here for 4/97 so it's hard for me to comment. i know folks tell me it was a pretty good event down here...8 to 12 with lots of tree damage. that event is definitely a love it or hate it kind of thing with respect to the "give up 6 weeks of winter" in exchange for the "big one" idea. i'm guessing kevin (don't know how much he had...14"?) would not give up the next 6 weeks. i knew will and scott would in heartbeat...and i'm almost certain Ray will say yes to that.

CoastalWx Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Does the warm-up ever arrive or do we get a couple of sneaky cold/snow threats next week? Also, where does this Miller B form and track to? Well we have one low that tracks near Montreal on Sunday, but it's not one of those classic lows that pulls up a ton of warm air. One of those low thickness over the border lows, as I like to call it. That low then sends a cold front south, as a new low forms over the Lakes and moves right across sne. The H5 trough sharpens and the low develops in the Gulf of Maine and almost has an inv like feature pointed at the Mass coastline. Looks like some -sn would rotate down across eastern areas. After that second low passes by, another shot of cold air comes for a brief visit, then the building warmth comes east by the end of next week. This is what the 12z euro op shows.

Tropopause_Fold Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 euro does a nice job delaying the torch but once it breaks...it's a CTBlizz Suicide Watch event end of next week on this run. but plenty of bitter cold lurking north of the border.

Ginx snewx Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 so you are with pickles on this one. No doubt especially since I have been having having some much fun outside in the snow except for the roof shoveling ice dam stuff. Every day when I wake up I just sit and stare with my coffee in hand, still can not believe it. When I took my second weenie ride today man there are some spots around here that are just unreal. I know we have peaked but a gradual letdown would be nice. There is always the outside chance we pull off yet another KU anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer it keeps it at day 8-10 the better I feel it will be short lived. Donnie baseball in PM thinks March 01 looking better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it looks like the torch is very short lived on this run....but I don't really believe it. The miller B threat is looking a lot more promising though for early next week.

The smaller events become more useless as we go along with the increasing sun angle. Today was a good example...in that pic I took of the snow burst you can see how the snow had already fallen off the trees...3.5" probably was down to 2" of slush. Early March can really deliver though...hopefully we get one. Late February has seemed to have a lack of monster storms for some reason...maybe its just a fluke. Maybe this is the year to change it since we've been getting big storms on snow-starved dates (Jan 12, Jan 26-27) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxsniss Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 The Miller B Feb 15 has gotten some attention since today's Euro... if it comes to fruition, let's not forget GFS has been showing this for a while, since 18Z 2/6/11... 18Z 2/6/11 GFS run showed a strong Miller B shooting off NJ coast and hitting eastern SNE hard. Since then, it's trended north and tracks it over or north of SNE, similar to today's Euro. We'll see. It's our best shot at wintry precipitation the next week. At the very least, it delays the torch a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what to put for my total...everythings melted pretty much, theres just a coating left on the driveway and deck. There was 2.1" when I left this morning so Im guessing not much more, maybe 2.5"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineJayhawk Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 It's been liquid in PWM for the most part during daylight hours I think (been wicked busy with work ... not much window gazing), but it is ripping now. Wow! Instant coating on everything. Wind seems to be quite robust as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
