Ryan Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Did Barry Burbank really just show a graphic (computer model projection) with 0.2" in Boston by 2pm Mon? I caught the very very end of his forecast at the top of the newscast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I'll take the 0.25" QPF here on the GFS and run. It could be one of those cold, quaint, high fluff events with the mid-levels an isothermal -12C to -18C from 750-550mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 9/-3, just reviewing the obs for the day here in WMA. The wind is still gusty with some 40mph surges. I see that Peru had wind gusts to 60mph twice around 12:30pm. That's pretty impressive. Big Winter incoming. Big Big winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKpowdah Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Pretty amazing how abruptly the Midwest s/w gets shredded late Sunday night. It looks like it's developing into a formidable storm, and then BAM, into the confluent zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be one of those cold, quaint, high fluff events with the mid-levels an isothermal -12C to -18C from 750-550mb.

CT Rain Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 That's a pretty impressive saturated column that far north...that's definitely a sign for optimism. i think this thing could really overperform for some.

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 WCVB has 3-5 for most of Mass, CT, NRI, 1-3 on the Cape, NH...possibly an older graphic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying 3-5" but wouldn't be shocked if we see a 5-8" ribbon somewhere That's what I'm thinking. Probably forecast advisory snow but certainly potential of a nice little stripe of 6-8"...especially if that very impressive ML fronto and forcing out in central NY/N PA can hold together at least partially as it moves into SNE. If it doesn't get shredded quite as quickly as models show, then we could def. see some over performing totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKpowdah Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 That's a pretty impressive saturated column that far north...that's definitely a sign for optimism. Plus as he pointed out, a large column for dendritic growth. Just need to get some lift, which hopefully we gain with low to mid level frontogenesis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closer to the ML fronto with a better chance of it remaining robust as it heads into SNE? (just tell me I can expect 8-12"new and I'll go to bed happy. Lie if you have to.)

8611Blizz Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Seems like most of Boston mets have it at 2-3" in Boston except BB who says about an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the BUFKIT soundings you could see the potential with a really potent burst of warm advection right around 12z and a saturated column. Seems like you could easily get 3 hours of 1-2" per hour rates where some ML frontogenesis sets up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Well I'm happy tonight. The torch is well behind us. It's frigid outdoors with some flakes flying...coating now on the deck. Snow on the way, generally good pattern and potentially favorable overrunning events until we get a big coastal bomb. My forecast officially verifies for BOS by dawn Monday and I'm busting low by Noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fook the qpf, mid level RH is where it's at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavisStraight Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Seems like most of Boaston mets have it at 2-3" in Boston except BB who says about an inch. I saw that, wonder if hes relying on that futurecast, which has been off all year. Ch 7 had 4-5 inches for most of ct and portions of western mass.

weathafella Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 BOS could hit 52 Friday but it wouldn't take much for it to be in the 20s. Tough pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
