MarkO Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 21.7F Heavy snow 5 1/4" Excellent! Heading up to Thornton this weekend to ski WV. Hoping they get a good dumping as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 lol yeah, it's really a horrible spot for good weather. Plymouth is the same. Hopefully wherever I end up in the next few years, it's better than either of those towns I've actually never been to AFN or EEN. I know Plymouth kind of well...they actually do ok ahead of cutters with se winds. Sort of converging/upslope wind through the valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 23.9F and still falling ever so slowly. Back down to -SN after the burst earlier in the hour. 4.1" new snow 0.9" last hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Very very dark here in SECT , right now, 43 degrees wind ENE 14 gusting to 21 MPH .9 in the bucket for the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Been ripping here for the past hour. 3" not accounting for comapcting This is how it should be in these set ups, Greenfield is usually just N or the RA/SN line. Really nice to bust on the positive side although it seems the monday modeling was fairly accurate with totals etc out here so I'm not sure how much of a bust it is. Box map from yesterday will come in right on or a little under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 heavy snow and sleet with this last band!!! Excellent! Should be here in the next 30 minutes. What's on the ground there? The ratios must be like 8:1 here. The snow blower was not happy. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tstorm723 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 House rattling thunder.... 45/44. Peak wind gust was 46 from E about an hour ago -virtually calm now as the thunderstorm gets near. 1.09 rainfall since the event started. Looks quite good on radar down that way...good omen for a good thunderstorm season hopefully! Lets see how far inland it can make it. Still not above freezing (31.8 last check at home). Would be nice to get a few rumbles even this far north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You know it never changed to rain here. It redeevloped as heavy wet icy snow. At times we get light and it goes to mostly sleet. Gained another inch to 5.5 total now despite compaction. 31.6F.... I've actually never been to AFN or EEN. I know Plymouth kind of well...they actually do ok ahead of cutters with se winds. Sort of converging/upslope wind through the valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisM Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Anyone have any guesses for how Mount Snow might be right now? Thinking about heading up tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKpowdah Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I've actually never been to AFN or EEN. I know Plymouth kind of well...they actually do ok ahead of cutters with se winds. Sort of converging/upslope wind through the valley. I have been in two storms where Plymouth did alright: December 9, 2009, and February 25th last year. Bu.t that's it lol 3.5" IMBY, with crappy snow growth. I'd really like to be able to pull off 4"-5" but man, it's not going to happen like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmanmitch Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I've actually never been to AFN or EEN. I know Plymouth kind of well...they actually do ok ahead of cutters with se winds. Sort of converging/upslope wind through the valley. Plymouth usually does well in these SWFE CAD setups that have SE winds near the sfc, but they will really struggle with nor'easter type storms that have N to NE winds due to downsloping off of the Whites.

MainePhotog Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 +SN, 1/4 sm, 21.4F 2.0" so far Nice! Have no idea what the ratios are, but I have blowing snow. I thought this would be a wet snow, but so far, it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoob40 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 38 and rain here at the office in downtown Spfld. .77 in the rain gauge on the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Nice! Have no idea what the ratios are, but I have blowing snow. I thought this would be a wet snow, but so far, it's not. It's relatively lower ratios, but still "dry". I posted earlier that I had 11:1 from about 4-10am. I'd assume you guys are similar up there.

weathafella Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Interesting obs guys. Nice way overperformer in marginal areas and solid overperformer unfolding in the 3 NNE states. Dryslot should get 10+ imho. I think that's a good omen at least going forward for the next 5-10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 House rattling thunder.... 45/44. Peak wind gust was 46 from E about an hour ago -virtually calm now as the thunderstorm gets near. 1.09 rainfall since the event started. Funny you say that--I've had two loud rumbles that I thought were the plow coming up the street. Both times wrong, and I was wondering if maybe there were some rumbles here. I can't imagine that would be the case though. 29.9/29--temp going down instead of up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 Latest from GYX, Looks like they have shifted some heavier totals to the coast as the colder air is overperforming AWT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Gone over to pingers in the lighter precip. Hopefully that last slug moving N flips us back. Huge morale boost to have this stay mostly snow in W. MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 most places seem to have ratios under 10:1 orh has .60" liquid as of 10 am with under 5" of snow How'd the NAM do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
