weatherwiz Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Posting from my phone outside...lightly sleeting out. Scene is just so beautiful...so white and quiet. Shoveling the snow its insanely fluffy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Warrior commander Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Some OCL flakes and pingers in the light echoes here attm. Snow texture very compact.. going to take a quick shower as shoveled round one already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Took this pic while shoveling. Scenery's like this are just so relaxing. If I had my mp3 player to listen to music I would so go for a long walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Temp continues to rise...now 30.5F...round 2 might be a wetter snow. Round 1 was pure powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codfishsnowman Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 there must have already been some compaction. I get two inches on the grassy surfaces but more like 1.5 to 1.8 elsewhere. sleet with a couple flakes right now. recording two inches feels kinda weenieish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3z HRRR actually warmed above 0c before the second batch barely before cooling back down again. I'm going to check out the latest run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 ORH 2.0" as of midnight. Officially eliminates any possibility at a futility record as they are now at 22.1"...record was 21.2" in 1954-1955. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Still snowing lightly and 23.2. This batch produced about .7" in an hour of moderate snow...a bit underwhelming. It wasn't great snow in terms of fluff, but fortunate it wasn't sleet. I see another small moderate batch just west about to move in. 1.6" total here from everything so far. Batch #1 was a better hit for SNE. Temp continues to rise...now 30.5F...round 2 might be a wetter snow. Round 1 was pure powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 And there has to be some form of mixing whether its parachutes bright banding or sleet because I've never seen 45dbz snow. However, it seems to be smoothing out as it projects east, a good sign for those who want to see some more snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I wouldn't use intellicast to look for ptype...mesoanalysis shows the column supporting snow still even southwest of HFD...it might be showing some rain because sfc temps have warmed to 33-34F, but don't let that fool you. BAF is reporting light snow under junky echoes. They will easily be snow in the springfield area when that heavier stuff moves over...but there is probably some aggregation going on to enhance the look on the echoes.

Logan11 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I'm about 175 miles west of northeastern MA (in terms of latitude) and I'm still snow......

I was just passively mentioning what it was showing. Nothing too serious. What do you think is triggering that little band floating up and down over the eastern mass coast?

It often has an error frame or two...but there isn't really a defined CF this far inland...FIT is 34F and ORH is 31F. Rutland mesonet site just to my NW is 28F.
