OSUmetstud Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 It would be nice to see some more eastward movement with the rainfall...but it does appear to be beginning on the Dover AFB radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpickett79 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 i wonder if Rick went over to IP from snow......as the nose of warmth at 850 may wiggle west a tad ....looks like he is right on edge of heavier snow now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 ORE down to 37F and NNW wind now at 10 knots. There could be some icing up in that area later tonight, but it will heavily depend on how low the temp gets whether its big icing or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpickett79 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 concord, Nh down to 38.5 which is about 5F in 2hrs. slow and steady snow/IP line retreating a tad north just SE of rutland vt per intell. radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around here we are at 0.8" of rain today and have not even gotten the hose yet. Big rain incoming... Dave--thank you for suggesting that I was NOT calling anything a bust. My comment was tied to the fact that the temps were diving and that there was alot of precip still to come. It was more a wonder of whether there would be signfiicant wintry precip. So, with that being cleared up.......it's now 34.0/33. I did not shovel out the buried generator whichi continues to be buried beneath an obscene roof slide. I really don't think the temps and rain rates will allow for a bad freezing situation, though my current temp does make me wonder. If my station goes out, you'll know I gambled badly on the 'not shoveling the generator' decision. Now 33.9/32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Okay--gut check time for the mets and others who know their stuff. I''m now at 33.6/32. What do you think--do you see this being a cold rain for a lot of the night with minimal icing? Or could I be screwed with a sh*tload of ice? I suppose option three is that I go to ip or snow. But, I think either of the first two is the more likley. Thanks in advance for your thoughts. Edit: 33.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Snow and 30.4F. It looks like we have about 3 inches. ALB still hasn't seen a flake I see. I really don't enjoy being so close to the line, but I can't complain. Okay--gut check time for the mets and others who know their stuff. I''m now at 33.6/32.

weatherMA Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 ALB still at FZRA and 31F. Forecast is for .2-.4 ice then 3-6" snow there. Should be interesting, the rain/snow line hasn't moved much last few hours. Meanwhile, .11" rain here, not much eastward progress, but looks like it will pick up in the next hour.

Edit: 33.5 If you can get a steady replenishment of lower dewpoints, then it could get pretty bad...the December 2008 ice storm here happened mostly in the 30-31F temp range but we had steady advection of lower dewpoints to offset the latent heat release with evap cooling. There's plenty of lower dews to the north, so it will definitely have to be watched. The Dec '08 storm also had very heavy precip rates too. They weren't enough to prevent massive ice.

I really don't enjoy being so close to the line, but I can't complain. I'll take your 3" of snow over the .86" of rain I've received so far. Looking at the mesonet site, I don't see any reason why my temp should advect much colder than it is now--at least for the time being. So, I'm pretty sure this will be a lot of mostly cold rain. Perhaps cold enough to save the snow cover. I think my fear of significant icing is unfounded. 33.5/32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: 33.5 Def don't see snow happening with this big qpf burst.....snow line seems to have been backing a bit west (over in the alb area) and NW near rutland last few hours. as far as icing goes ...i wonder if the coldest nose is around 1K or lower or higher ? some spots in NW CT are 31-32 now on meso site. prolly also over extreme western areas of mass. also some 31-32 SEast of poughipsee showing up.
