Ginx snewx Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 That webcam...maybe the pinehills...about 10 miles or so as the flakes fly. That's my guess. This is accumulating snow here, everything covering over already. I emailed the dude, his website is sweet ! johnsweather.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I thought you lived in Plymouth? It's not that big Plymouth is the largest municipality in the state of MA, 134 square land/water miles. It's over 11% of the size of the entire state of Rhode Island, would be the biggest town in CT,RI,MA,VT..not sure about NH and ME but probably close (Pittsburgh NH is quite a bit bigger as is Alliagash ME...but Allagash has 240 residents versus 60k in Plymouth). It's massive. Very roughly speaking to go from the SW to NE corner of Plymouth is like going about half the distance between Boston and Providence.....a little less but not much.

RI Rob Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 While people are talking about ern areas, we may have to watch for a mini jackpot in the se flow over CT and GC east into ORH and maybe RI. MiniJackpot in RI? Sounds good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I wonder if that band sort of stops its westward progression, but then heads nw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I emailed the dude, his website is sweet ! johnsweather.com If the pics are any indication I don't think it's the PH...I see street lights. I can't get a feel for it other than that he has real pine trees...which we don't in the southern coastal portion of the town. So I'm betting he's back up along 3A somewhere, probably between exits 3 and 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presents issues as a Town. Lots of dirt roads still even in 2012 west of 3a. There aren't enough people in the town to support the infrastructure for such a massive community. 7 post offices and 5 zip codes in the town.... Snow is having a hard time going beyond a coating...some melting it appears. Sun FTL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
