Mr Torchey Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I think that might be a camera problem. Notice the low contrast of the image? There's a couple cameras around here that are always like that no matter the weather or lack thereof. Roads completely covered up here, my latitude ftw with the superband, 8" of fluff, 6.25 for Norwalk, what did you get down in the oven of NEw England, heading down later to see the inlaws.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 do you clear after 6 hours when u measure? only asking today bc if it gets a wee bit "less fluffy" in nature on 2'nd half....clearing will give a better picture of snow accums than usual I just took the official out back on the porch. The fireplace platform which is about 3' x 3'. There's about 6" and that's the first measurement on that board. It's totally clear of any non-falling snow influence. It's elevated so there is no drifting at all. That's where I do the "official" measurements when I can't get out there. I'll clear after six hours but it didn't really start here until 9ish, so will go from that time frame. I can't multi-quote for some reason, but yeah this has been fun. I have high hopes on the OES later. That could really put this into the double digits as I only expect another 1-2" synoptically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Larger flakes moving in as the little brother band sets up over eastern MA. Looks like this parting shot may drop another 1-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastBayWx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 7.6 " new snow on top of 3.5" Thursday night. Still 22F with moderate snow. Someone hits 10" no doubt. My bet is southern Bristol County Mass, ie New Bedford... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've hit a wall the last few hours. Yeah thats insane. PYM has some weird climo, when they get hit from snow and even tstorms, it seems like they get decimated.

BostonWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yea, I mentioned that earlier Its really a pretty sharp cutoff and band after band that has setup seems to dissolve within 15 miles of the pike and a crap area of subsidence just north of it.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yeah thats insane. PYM has some weird climo, when they get hit from snow and even tstorms, it seems like they get decimated. Can't explain it Last few winters hasn't mattered, but when the cold air dominates there can be massive differences between north and south plymouth. The heaviest stuff just never could get north today as cold air fed down. Someone else can discuss later but to me the Euro probably wasn't as good as the last NAM. NAM did a better job picking up on the real tight banding, Euro kind of missed that and had a more diffuse area. RUC continues to hammer the area for another 2 or so hours as we get the last pulse moving in from RI. If that happens...it's really been one of the best performances I ever remember from the RUC.
