mahk_webstah Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Check a couple posts back, it's basically a smoothing error showing up on a coarser grid. sorry Chris, not sure how I missed that post. It is nice to get some snow although the echoes are breaking up w and s nh as i write so who knows.. 4 inches would be a huge victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 At this point, I think that's about right. Maybe another inch of snow if we can really thump before the flip. radar not really looking too great in the thump department for this area downstream. I had made my post about the flakes looking refrozen and then saw your post which explained why pretty well. It is nice having a NNE met on here lately during the events. As few as they have been.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Despite the radar being lit up there is very little falling here at the moment. A few pellets and flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Not much of anything going on here attm, just a few flakes. About .75" down with very little in the offing on the near-term upstream radar. That'll kill both accumujlations and any accretion possibilities. 30.0/29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Big fat flakes...temp has creeped down to just under freezing now. Radar is pretty choppy after this last burst...should be it for snow for most of SNE by the time the next steadier batch of precip comes in.

That is the real problem here, the best omega arrives well after it warms aloft for much of the GYX southern CWA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar looks paltry for the Monadnocks, and by the time that heavier batch swings through from the SW it might be too late for snow. Have about 0.5" here with -SN.

ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 ORH reporting unkonwn precip? Its still snow here...though the the large flakes are rimed a bit. You can hear them hit. ORH still reporting snow. It won't really matter either way as this last burst is about to move out and there precip is light behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 That is the real problem here, the best omega arrives well after it warms aloft for much of the GYX southern CWA. For a while it was looking like a nice thump from S NH on north. I might be able to pull off that inch with some freezing rain accretion on top. Hopefully it at least coats the trees and looks nice for a while tomorrow, so long as the power doesn't go out. Shouldn't get anywhere near that in this area though.

moneypitmike Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 The WWA is for ice and not snow. I know. The forecast calls for "a trace". Is that WWA worthy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have about 0.5" here with -SN. Agreed, you really haven't been treated to the best first year in the Monadnocks. Sure you got a surprise inch last night but that's nothing. Have you decided whether or not you'll be teaching there next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I know. The forecast calls for "a trace". Is that WWA worthy? Any amount of glazing will usually trigger a WWA. A WWA for freezing drizzle is not uncommon. We had one on the morning of Jan 13 I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Just some -FZRA here now. 29.7F. 1" total today.... Big fat flakes...temp has creeped down to just under freezing now.

ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 That last burst is moving out...just some light crappy flakes now mixed with some fine ice pellets and probably even some FZDZ. Looks like about a quarter inch...will probably go down as a couple tenths...maybe a little more. Will go check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I had something that wasn't rain, sleet I think. Don't care and it's not doing that now I don't think. SWFE is over for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsnowstorm628 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Clouds lowering here in lyndonville. No flakes yet. 28.4/16.2 so we should get down to 26-27f when snow starts.

nzucker Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Agreed, you really haven't been treated to the best first year in the Monadnocks. Sure you got a surprise inch last night but that's nothing. Have you decided whether or not you'll be teaching there next year? The winter has been horrible here in the Monadnocks....outside of the 25" storm in October, we've only had about 15" of snow in November/December/January combined. With just patches of snow on the ground on Jan 26th and the winter averaging +5 approximately, it's been hideous. The worst winter I saw in VT was 09-10, and this is MUCH MUCH worse because that winter I got to chase storms in NYC. We might see some hope from a +PNA in February, but I fear the arctic air and snowpack will have to wait until next year as the PV retreats to Asia, torching Canada, and the sun angle increases by that point naturally. I am not sure about teaching at Hampshire Country School next year...it's a pretty rough job working with kids with Aspergers/schizophrenia and the salary is pretty low for a full-time teacher who also works a bunch of weekends and nights (20k+room and board for the academic year). I am interviewing for the NYC Teaching Fellowship, in which I'd commit to 2 years with NYC in exchange for sponsoring my Masters and a 50k/year salary. I also have some private schools with better student populations that I've been talking to. I really like working with kids but my patience is definitely being stretched here with difficult students, long hours, and mediocre pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
