adamrivers Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Man, Pete, Chris, Libations, myself, and the other western folks are getting swamped. Good think we're not trying to protect a mid-winter snowpack!! 28.6/23 Figures....a time when WMass is in the max QPF, it's all rain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 LOL, hadn't realized that until I posted the pic and saw the date... Top 5 weather related event of my life... 12/11/08 (and the 5 sucky days after)... Still dead stuff overhanging my property everywhere. Hopefully this will be just white and wet --- hold the ice, please Yeah, same here. As crappy as it was having no power for days, I still couldn't get over how much damage that storm did.

HoarfrostHubb Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Figures....a time when WMass is in the max QPF, it's all rain... Glad I'm near the top of a hill... those in valleys, low areas, be prepared to bail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never forget the drive to Dunkins that morning...line out the door, and everyone had that "we're fooked" look on their face. They must've made a killing for days.

CT Rain Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 I wouldn't be surprised to see ZR down to the coast in CT when this first moves in. Not sure why BOX doesn't have advisories for Tolland and Windham county? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Bet that's sleet south of LI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Glad I'm near the top of a hill... those in valleys, low areas, be prepared to bail I'm in an elevated area with very sandy sub soil but much of Greenfield, Deerfield and Turners Falls are clay soil. With frozen ground and 2"+ of QPF there's gonna' be some flooded basements followed by a freeze. 23/22.5 imby. Valley is going to hold some cold air late into the morning, should be some decent icing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 25/25, maybe a little zr in the am, but nothing major here. It will be a while before the precip makes it up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I doubt it... way too warm down there It's more than likely just plain rain...sfc temps are fairly warm, 925 temps near +6-7C and 850mb temps around +1C or +2C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I'm going to say my area (elevated valley location - 400') gets .25 - .50 sleet followed by .2 ice accretion. Be fun to see if that verifies. Maybe not fun to drive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Temperatures really decoupled here with clear skies ...down to 17F now. I suspect we'll make a serious jump later when the clouds thicken, but it does look icy for awhile. I was out in Cooperstown for their Victorian Candlelight Christmas event...lovely 4 or 5 inches of snow remaining on the ground there and all set up again after a day in the mid/upper 30s. So I enjoyed tonight and tried not to think about the mess to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 FWIW, the RUC keeps the surface below freezing until about 14z here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Interesting CAD all the way to NC with lots of NNE light winds still reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Interesting CAD all the way to NC with lots of NNE light winds still reported. Yeah winds are more backed than forecasted. May lock in a bit more cold. Once winds pick up even a bit (they're dead calm in all of CT now) we should see temps start rising a couple degrees through turbulent mixing but not nearly as fast as if they were out of the E/SE bringing in the warmth.

CT Rain Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Still not understanding BOX WWA map Didn't even use it on air. Gotta love winter wx advsiories and freezing rain advisories (for the same thing) with a giant hole in NE CT. Total garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Boundary between the wind shift/warmer temps and the colder temps appears to be right around the vicinity of Long Island. Looks like a decent amount of low level frontogenesis (850-700mb) going on with a bit of moisture convergence...maybe this could explain the nice heavy area of precip that blossomed in that area?

weatherwiz Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 wow...BDL sitting at a balmy 23F! HFD rose from 26F to 27F last hour. Winds still out of the N. Although looks like that could try and change soon, winds out of the east now across portions of S. CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 This has got to be a wall of precip. I am perfectly clear with no wind, that precip is crossing LI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 FOK was 26F and started as rain...they're 42F now. With ORH at 32F most of those 20s in far SNE shouldn't last long once the clouds move in and radiate some longwave back down. It looks like winds pick up and mix the cold out pretty quickly once the mid level OVC layer moves in. There will probably be some slippery spots here and there, but I'll ban myself if this ends up a significant icing event. Dec 08 was a completely different beast and shouldn't even have been brought up in comparison to the next 12 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
