moneypitmike Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Okay--I'm' fully prepared for a thousand weenies being thrown my way. But....... what's the likelihood of picking up a little more accummulation from this upon changing back? Kevin things late morning/noon will flip back. Not sure if that's right or what the qpf situation will be once any change back does take place. 32.6/32. Of note is the last several wind readings I've had have been NW......hmmmmmm. (let the weenie toss begin). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should have eeked that one contour over the Pit as we had 2.5" (I suspect it was higher prior to the heavy mix). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 It's mixing back in with some snow pellets now. It's probably 50/50 with pure sleet. 31.8F. The thinness of that warm air aloft is probably helping to keep some of those mangled flakes surviving to the sfc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslot Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 Wow, 6" is great! I measured nearly 3" a couple hours ago w/ moderate snow falling so I doubt I have as much. I won't be able to measure again until late tonight, so I'm going to be robbing myself (again) of an accurate measurement. You must be at work, Raining there i presume?

wxeyeNH Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 28.7F light to moderate snow. Temp slowly falling. I have not gone out to measure but looks about like 7". Temp was around 31.5F for most of the night before falling off the past couple of hours.

OKpowdah Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Great map, Sam. I think you should have eeked that one contour over the Pit as we had 2.5" (I suspect it was higher prior to the heavy mix). Thanks! Definitely happy with it so far. We'll see how the rest of the region fares today. Congrats on your snow! Hopefully we can hold onto some into tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I just want precip to stop, so I can preserve what I have for tomorrow Well the back edge of the main shield is just entering MA and VT and echos in advance of that are much lighter. That said, there are heavier returns running north of the Mohawk Trail so I'll stay in at least moderate for a while, I guess. 32.7/32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaineJayhawk Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 You must be at work, Raining there i presume? Yes. It was depressing driving from the winter wonderland at home to a driving rainstorm in Portland. But I knew it was going to be like this. Oh, the drive in was terrific ... plows hadn't been out yet and of course there hadn't been much traffic yet at 4:30am, so 35 mph was the fastest I dared.

CoastalWx Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Raining at PWM. Scooter wondered last night if the immediate Portland area would be toaster&tub worthy and it is. Changeover line is in Buxton, about 15 miles inland. I talked to my buddy in PWM about it and we were wondering about that. It looked like it could be.

dendrite Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Back over to mostly refrozen snowflakes. There's an occasional ice pellet, but it's 90-95% mangled flakes.

OceanStWx Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 You can see the coastal front and rain/snow line running from between Bath and Boothbay Harbor, through Harpswell, Falmouth, to just south of Gorham before you start to lose it on radar. I can attest from the drive into work it was like a light switch. All rain, then a couple hundred yards of slush before a winter wonderland at Falmouth. You can see the bright banding over Portland, indicating that the melting level is only about 1000 feet off the deck. Back to the west you can see some bright banding showing the mixing in New Hampshire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 That dryslot is gonna make the precip showery in a couple of hours. The better bands will continue near and n-ne of IZG in the foothills afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
