CoastalWx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Just got home. Looks like we did better than 4", but my snow area was shoveled. I'll have to figure out how much exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 What do you think Foxboro ended up with? 5-6"? What did they get the other night? Just curious how much snow is around the stadium right now? Guess they got to do a bunch of cleanup in the stands tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 three inches on the nose here...9 hours to get three inches of snow lol... 4.75 here so I'd imagine you hit around 4.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Insane. 10mi S and they see double my total. Now, how do you think I felt when I had 1' in Dec '03 and 10 miles to my ese had 3'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 Now, how do you think I felt when I had 1' in Dec '03 and 10 miles to my ese had 3'... It does not bother me one bit.

Baroclinic Zone Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 You wouldn't have cared about missing 2' of snow by 10 miles...you're a better man than I. Nah, I just enjoy what I get. I'm not a chest thumper or crazy weenie. Today was a great day. 1/2m vis for several hours with light winds made for a picturesque snowfall. Looks like the last band is rotating through now.

mcglups Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 8.5 inches in Newport, but windblown so might be a little more. It started around 730AM and ended around 430PM with about a 4 hour period of moderate to heavy snow with low visibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIcoastalWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 6.5" total here on the Westerly beaches. (Measured on an uncleared deck) Last 1.5 hours of the storm was a mix of snow, graupel/sleet and freezing rain. Freezing drizzle during the last hour is changing to 'snizzle' now. Highest temp and dewpoint of the day occuring right now - 25/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I saved a bunch of products for this guy. Some good signals of banding on the SREFs this morning down there. Actually, it was there yesterday too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Now, how do you think I felt when I had 1' in Dec '03 and 10 miles to my ese had 3'... You would love living up here during our meso-scale events where one side of a mountain can have 20" while a couple miles away on the other side gets 4". Wide variations with pretty much all storms due to topography and wind flow. January 2010 comes to mind when BTV got 33" and then 10-15 miles east had 5-6". Or last year when West Bolton (the bordering town on the west side of the Spine/county line) had 38" and we got 14" on this side... literally like 7-8 miles as the crow flies.

CT Rain Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I saved a bunch of products for this guy. Some good signals of banding on the SREFs this morning down there. Actually, it was there yesterday too. Yeah there were definitely signs for banding and a burst of frontogenesis. Tight thermal/thickness gradient helped frontogensis overperform. Still the actual models were so stingy with UVM it was hard to get excited. I'm still surprised to see as many 8"+ reports as there are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Bob I always have performance anxiety before any snow event... We're going to finish around 8.5" give or take. I'll do a better survey shortly. That is sweet bro, could just see that taking shape as you were like a school boy with pre this AM.

ski MRG Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 16/11,cloudy, 2.75" new, just an awesome day of skiing and sledding. It's fun to be a kid. Congrats to the Southerners on the score! The 'torch' is looking lame and there are threats on the horizon. Slowly but surely things are coming around and this train is rolling. Look out, this thing is picking up speed!

Ginx snewx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Dude, that's pretty awesome. Just a shy bit over 4" here in Brooklyn and I'm not too far north of you. What a difference 20 miles makes with this one. Catch up time, 5.5 here final. Even Southern Plainfield has near 7, impressive gradient N/S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still surprised to see as many 8"+ reports as there are. There actually was good VVs yesterday when I looked along the south coast, but I think lift was actually just modest in this..it was just a great combo of getting it into the DGZ and it went perfect. I think on a mesoscale feature, the lift was probably strong. Dare I say...Feb 6 2003 like. Speed shear type frontogenesis and deformation.

Mr Torchey Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 What a beautiful night just woke up from a 2 hour nap ready for a night of fire pit festivities and sledding, the landscape is changed full of life and renewal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
