Seriously heavy snow progged by the NAM for Dec 18th, 2009.

Drop size disdrometer... gives an objective (but not necessarily correct) way to identify precipitation type and intensity. This was the December 18th-19th, 2009 blizzard that dropped about 14" of snow in Boone. You can see how intense the precipitation got earlier.

Here's something some of y'all may find interesting. If any of you folks remember 2000's Cyclone Leon-Eline in the SIO, one interesting aspect of it was just how far westward across southern Africa the cyclone went during it's depression and remnant low stage. The center made it almost 80 percent of the way toward the Atlantic Coast from the Mozambique Channel.

Well, as it moved inland, a miniature (and I mean TINY!) little low developed back in the channel. Keep in mind the MOZ Channel is well known among TC enthusiasts as being a climo-favored place for midget TC's to form. Anyway, I saved a few images of it from the 26th and 27th FEB of 2000, as well as the day before it formed and after it dissipated. The larger ones will give you a reference to just how small it is compared to Leon-Eline. The closeups in the post that follows will show you that it takes up a small part of the 5x5 degree LALO box...perhaps about 1 x 1 or 60-ish miles across. It only lasted about 2 days or so.

The first set is from the 25th, 26th, and 27th....

Most of mine are just radar screen grabs... I'm at work right now and there are a few here, but I have some much better ones at home.. I'll post them later.

I believe this one was a tornadic supercell near Tuscaloosa the day of the outbreak last week:

This is a massive 60dbz+ hail core in Ohio from around a month ago:

One of the most epic snowbombs I've witnessed. That band was simply incredible, and it pivoted over western Long Island for hours. We had a foot of snow in about 3 hours.
