Damage In Tolland Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Welcome back, Kevin! A few pingers mixing in with this last batch, but too little too late to really harm the accumulation. 29.7/29 Nice Mike. Happy for you guys up there. You guys north of the pike shouldhave a nice 10 days or so ofsnowcover. What'd you end up with ..about 6-7 inches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ineedsnow Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 agree I think the euro was best gfs not to far behind Not sure what bong your're toking,, but if you read ANY of the mets posts today..the Euro absolutley nailed this event and the colder end result. it was the ONLY model to see the cold and snowier scenario. The NAM blew donkey ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Sometimes when low pressure approaches, you get an increased wind from the NE. That may be helping to drain the colder air into your area. I think what we might see, is temps possibly inch up a degree or maybe two, then perhaps fall back a bit after 18-20z. Do you expect that would provide for snow vs. rain tonight/tomorrow? That would be nice. Looks like I may be having some zr now. 29.7/29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbob Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 5" here so far and still snowing at 29. Off to pop the cherry on my new Fisher plow after lunch. Didn't bother to use it at Holloween... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Just over 5 inches now. May be able to get six if things go well for the next hour or two. Slowing about half inch an hour right now but its getting brighter out. Nice for it to finally look like october again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Not sure what bong your're toking,, but if you read ANY of the mets posts today..the Euro absolutley nailed this event and the colder end result. it was the ONLY model to see the cold and snowier scenario. The NAM blew donkey ass Will said it had him flipping at 6am go back and read it. He snowed well after that period, much to his shock as well. It did the best, but it was far from perfect. It snowed longer and more to the south than any model predicted. In this case dynamics probably helped to mute out the warm layer and the 0c 8h line that it depicted was the best indication of the rain snow line this time. I didn't say anything about the NAM did I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 This last band has a combination of good snow growth and huge aggregate flakes so I must have a near 0C layer aloft now. Looks like it's about to wind down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Do you expect that would provide for snow vs. rain tonight/tomorrow? That would be nice. Looks like I may be having some zr now. 29.7/29 I think it would be lingering ZR or FZDZ as the mid levels dry out and we lose the moisture for ice nuclei. Tomorrow, the front might give you some shwrs or even a rumble of thunder, then perhaps some flurries in the aftn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 22.1F Moderate snow vis 1/4 6". Brian, do you think that last batch in Mass will get us or slide east? If we miss it I will end up with around 7" if we get it perhaps 8" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineJayhawk Posted January 12, 2012 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 I like the 10-12" bullseye over Sebago Lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Started in AUG about 10 AM (I have an all-day mtg in a windowless room, so obs are infrequest.) At noon +SN with vis 1/4 mile, maybe 1" new. Looks like MBY has had only a little bit, but the 30 dbz band is about to reach the Route 2 corridor.

If we miss it I will end up with around 7" if we get it perhaps 8" I probably will to some extent...you'll be close. I'm hoping it's all snow here...maybe I'll crank out another inch. The aggregates are huge right now. The CAD is slipping a bit too...up to 24.5F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Just saw a pic from Burlington, MA and it looks like they got at least a solid inch of snow. Nothing here just a few miles down the road. Awful, just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You do. I just turned to sleet. I was afraid of that. Hopefully the better lift in that last band coming up from MA will be able to keep it snow up here, but there's a good chance I ping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Looks like some convection in the GOM heading north just off shore up here, Some 50 dbz stuff in that cell Melting layer. Those echoes are around 4kft, and that matches up well with the heights that correlation coefficient starts really dropping on the KBOX 88D. Nice to see they got dual-pol up and running in time for this event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahk_webstah Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Just got a heavy burst that has put us at 5.5. I'd be happy to finish with 6...this should stay around for awhile. Perhaps til March or April. When is the next storm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJBASHB Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Switched to sleet/freezing rain a little while ago. Temp dropped to 30.4 on an active NE wind. BOX's winter storm watch actually turned out to be a good call for around here. 3-6 followed by zr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
