weatherwiz Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Look at the "tail end Charley" looking cell at the end of the convergence band. WTF...LOL. What the hell does that mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Interesting couple days wx-wise. Rain, snow, rain, sleet, cold, warm, and now the temp is changing so quickly I can watch the temperature on the weather station drop each reading. And the wind… Here is a question. It might seem childish but I actually don't know the answer. Where does the wind go? I mean, what happens to it that it slows down or disappears? People say the wind dies. What does that mean?

OSUmetstud Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 What the hell does that mean? in this instance...basically nothing. It's that southwest most supercell in a squall line that tends to be the most tornadic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 in this instance...basically nothing. It's that southwest most supercell in a squall line that tends to be the most tornadic. Yeah it's so narrow, but intense. Looks like the bottom end of a line of tstms..lol. Kind of cool to see anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of cool to see anyways. there was a tornadic waterspout off of Cleveland in the October 12-13 2006 BUF snowstorm..so it is possible lol. In Oswego I've seen snow-wrapped more traditional waterspouts in LES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professional Lurker Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Here at home in Bernardston, it seems that the heavier echoes are falling apart. Still, a good inch or so on top of what we got yesterday is very good... I wasn't expecting much from this. It seems that the mountain is probably doing much better. Can't wait to strap on my sticks tomorrow to make some turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professional Lurker Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 ...but I take it that the best stuff is still yet to come, no? ...when that batch of light snow in upstate NY rotates through, will we still have this area of local enhancement associated with the convergence, or will that too pivot east?

It can't last too long, the convergence between the warm air and cold air will be eliminated as the CAA wipes out the warmer air in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 ? that rte 2 line wobbles north and south more than a politican looking for election. mike are you near coombs hill road or to the w/n/s/ or east or tower rd. Right near Cooms hill. Pretty much has lighteded up, but the win'ds picked upcausing a lot of blowing. Picked up about 3" in that little burst. True bonus! 30.0/29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Still going strong. Probably closing in on 4" now. I'm right in the middle of the convergence zone where the red dot is. The sun is probably out as close as the Mass Pike in Lee. LOL. Awesome, Mitch Congratulations. Now off to pick my daughter up in CT.

wxmanmitch Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Easily past the 6" mark now, but with blowing and drifting it's hard to measure. Snow is now very dry and powdery compared to earlier when it was wet and pasty. Oscillating between dendrites and snow grains as snow is very convective. As these moist air parcels hit the Berks/Taconics they must be reaching a layer of conditional instability and rising a lot more on their own than if the atmosphere were more stable.

TalcottWx Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 SW trans-versing BGM to bring squalls later? I feel like it will be limited. There has been no mention of windex parameters and the stuff over mitch seems to be aided by oragraphics and the convergence zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Snow letting up for now, but it looks like a ton of moisture still to the W and NW in NY State. If some of this stuff pivots E and SE toward us, we may keep the upslope machine going well into tonight. I don't think it'll be as heavy as it was since things may be stabilizing a bit, but we may still get several more hours of 0.75 -SN or 0.5 SN, perhaps even some periods of 0.25 +SN. Already reaching warning level snow around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
