Gorizer Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Anyone have Andy on speed dial? Channel 10 has me in the 5 to 9 range. I've already got nearly 6 inches... me thinks we need an updated graphic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Organizing Low Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 i think we should get snow into montreal metro around 1AM wont be up for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Organizing Low Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 NAM say 3-6inches still possible across the island with the same big gradient just S of us. just too close a call to have any certainty. i guess it will be a surprise when i look out the window tomorrow.

Couchsachraga Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Just plowed a few driveways... I'm sure I'll be doing it again in the AM. Impressive weekend for precipitation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 True, and w/ the lake probably out of business, save for maybe some sort of brief last hurrah at some point...we're close to all done for the season. Golf weather can't get here soon enough. Entry-level snow continues here, maybe 1/2-3/4 mile vis. Not enough snow to bother measuring till tomorrow morning, something like 2 or 3 inches by calibrated nighttime eyeball. We could hit 4 or 5 inches, which is better than the sum total of the last two March's. I'm getting reeled in a little bit (again).....looking at the composite radars, there has been a subtle, but significant halt to the back edge, and the echoes to our south have taken on quite a more north (or dare I say NNNW) turn. We could luck into some decent deformation action overnight, outside the main show to our ESE....I'll bite for a little bit....RUC has certianly demonstrated a decent westward trend over the last 6-8 hours or so with the .1"/hr. line.....

Organizing Low Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Knowlton down to Memphremagog look to do pretty well...

CNYWxGuy Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Maybe (based on NAM and RUC and radar trends) SYR might get to the warning criteria! Folks between Binghamton,Utica and Albany (and north and south of there) should get the mother of God picture out.... Even better than a picture, we got video...

snowgeek Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 My son and I just drove up to Thacher Park (1200' (I'm at 225') due west (10 miles) of my house). 31F with freezing rain and sleet here. Temp on the way up dropped to 29F. At 1200' it was heavy wind blown sleet with about 1.5" of sleet on the ground and the roads. Roads were oddly not slippery. There were some flakes starting to mix in up there. This is more of an east / west snow gradient than a typical elevation storm like last Feb. My temperature at the house hasn't budged for hours. If I I had driven another few miles west I bet it would have changed to snow, but I didn't want to chance it and we had to get back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowgeek Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Trees are plastered with ice here. They are glimmering and white in the lights. I'm hoping that we don't lose any big branches off of our 125' white pines. If this doesn't change over soon we're gonna end up with quite the ice storm here. heavy ZR/PL continues with the temp holding at 30.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderhead Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 If this doesn't change over soon we're gonna end up with quite the ice storm here. heavy ZR/PL continues with the temp holding at 30.2 Am wondering about the potential for power outages in the CD tonight/tomorrow morning. Have noticed icicles hanging from power lines outside my window and in some traffic cams (www.511ny.org) between Albany and Saratoga Springs. Looks like a tree is glazed over in the Clifton Park picture. Adding ice and any heavy wet snow to what's already on the power lines with some wind ... could be nasty. I guess the least hazardous scenario would be a prolonged period of sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorizer Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Wow. I've been snow for 6 hours... I'm stunned that Thacher hasn't flipped yet! Just measured...

West Point, NY Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 congrats you could push 1.5 ft with over an inch of liquid left to come and ratios improving. I don't know whats going on with these guys. They missed the changeover by 10 hours here and even as the 18z models and 0z NAM came in wetter, they refused to substantially up the snow totals. How was it 5-9" when it was gonna flip to snow at 1am and 6-10" when they know it flipped around 3pm? I know this was a tough storm to forecast but once it flipped to snow even my 11 yr old daughter looked at the radar and said there's no way were having school tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowgeek Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Except this time it's 900-800mb temps, not surface temps. if its still sleet in thacher park this is an incredible gradient.. duanesburg has been all snow for hours several miles away. figures the line would set up almost identically to 2/25/10 lol.

ENYsnow Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Except this time it's 900-800mb temps, not surface temps. yeah lol i'd prefer this sleet over rain like last year though. i dont think theres much hope for us seeing warning criteria snow out of this unless that deformation band sits right over us tomorrow morning.
