Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 You might pull 9 or 10 out of this the way its snowing there and whats left to come The upside to the grueling wait for it to move in this morning is it's not making much/any progress north. It's just kind of sitting right over us and with the ocean wind now it's going to town. Temp 29. Phil must be getting croaked too. if it snows like this past 3 we'll get 8+... EDIT: Flakes are massive now, just huge dendrites. Back when it used to snow we'd see this with the OE influence taking hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxsniss Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Approaching 5.5" now. Literally snowing so hard I'm totally covered within seconds. congrats!!! amazing how relatively stationary that band has been for hours, south coast of CT through southeast Mass continues to get clocked with webcams showing I-95 covered New Haven east latest RUC says southeast Mass stays under good stuff until at least 3pm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the band making it in here and just about to my area getting .5+ Same general shot as the ones over the years...it doesn't get much more impressive than this in broad daylight. I'd say equivalent to about a 1/10 of a mile, if not less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIcoastalWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Just got under the 'yellow' echoes on the radar. Equal mix of snow, graupel (possibly sleet now) and freezing rain. Temp and dewpoint has not budged from 23/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 congrats messenger enjoy Thanks, keeping in form I have one gripe. The snow is so fluffy sleds are being stopped cold. What could take this to the next level...next hour the synoptic snow should lighten, but hopefully we can get productive OES bands for 6-8 hours.

RUC says this band shifts east out of CT but continues to nail your area for several hours i'm sure you're getting some OE enhancement as well, winds generally ENE check out this ConnDOT webcam... I-95 southbound (closest to camera) near New Haven is literally completely snow-covered: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 It's not too surprising that with the lift into the DGZ that we have 8-10" amounts. Probably 20-1 ratios there. One of those things where it's hard I forecast that much but you know it could happen. I'm Braintree now with decent flakes. Looks like almost 4" here.

Temp and dewpoint has not budged from 23/20. I saw Block Is. briefly got to 32f before the wind went NNE. Now down to 28f. My wind just backed from ENE to NE. Temps should start to drop again. It's still 33f with Sn-. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Measured 2.1" in North Chelmsford about 15 min ago...probably end up with 2.5 or so...not all that bad considering its right on the NH border basically.
