40/70 Benchmark Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 That's what we were thinking yesterday. I was hoping for like 10-12", but reality rules the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowMan Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Patience, move the toaster away from the tub. The CCB is when we crank, it's coming. Think most severe thunderstorm we've had all year but with snow. Not joking. Whew! Read this post right as I was about to step into the tub...

CoastalWx Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 The DS is messing around with things, as the best lift is below the DGZ. If this were winter, it would be ripping because the airmass would have been colder and the DGZ would have been lower. Pete has been smacked in the DGZ all day. That area was pegged really well. Things should shift to the east as the night goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 You'll get yours in a few hours. Agreed, the models were pretty consistent with cranking that CCB only after 03z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should make between 7-10"..about what was expected, but I had weenie hopes. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Dry slot is pretty hardcore, above 700mb at least. Low-level vertical motion is very strong over central and eastern areas..but it's too dry above 700mb to really go to town. I mentioned the dry slot earlier...but I thought maybe the strong vertical motions would overwhelm it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Still raining in quincy Should change there by about 11 I'd think. Good low to mid level spin approaching Buzzards bay from the south, once that passes east of our locations we'll hopefully see the line begin to more rapidly. http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=OKX&product=N0R&overlay=11101111&loop=yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Just back from picking up my daughter in Newton. Decent snow there with roads covered..this is behind the Atrium Mall. Coming home on rt 9, similar conds until the Brookline Reservoir. Coming down the hill made a big difference. Just a coating here so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned the dry slot earlier...but I thought maybe the strong vertical motions would overwhelm it. Wxforecasters second s/w is piling in now. Hopefully we see the CCB really expode in the next hour. Not sure I buy the CCB of death much below the MA Pike but we'll see. Centers seem pretty far north but not toaster time yet. Spin evident on radar has again slowed the progress of r/s line and radar not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Mart has Vineyard just had a gust to 53 mph. Gusting to 45 here now. 40.8 R/S stuck again. Actually maybe retrograding a smidge. It had almost changed entirely along Borderland in Sharon but is back to mainly rain. Looks to me like the center got more north than it did east the last 120 minutes. I've got to give it to the 18z NAM (and to an extent the 12z)...looking at radar and everything else pretty clear at this 0z-3z timeframe it's nailed the location of the 8h and developing mid level center. 8h is going to roll right over ACK. About to pull the plug on Bob's area and just to the north towards Easton/Sharon etc. They may all see 1-3/2-4" on the back side, but that band may also mostly pass by to the north a few miles. Norwood should get it good, maybe canton maybe down to easton...up through Boston. Maybe a coating or some flurries here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 radar looks to be gradually improving for central and eastern areas as the best moisture translates east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahk_webstah Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 snowing harder than I thought. Up to 6 inches now. temp hasn't dropped much at all. sitting right at 30.3 ooops...wrong thread for obs. But it interesting to watch that long enhanced band that goes from rockford me through south central and sw nh into mass and eny. that is one long band with some areas of extreme enhancement. The wester part is now pivoting and reorienting n/s while the rest of the band stays ene-wsw. I wonder how this band will evolve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
