ski MRG Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 nice lol, it's cool to boom staight up 70'. Once I got above tree top level there is a very stiff NE wind. It's a little freaky because fully extended the boom has some sway in the wind. You swear you might go right over. Combined with the SN+ and low vis it makes for a nice rush.

N. OF PIKE Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 It's more a function of just really crappy precip rates. The mild bl doesn't help but if its not steady/moderate precip the low levels won't respond. Steady/heavier precip brought the temp right down to 32F earlier it's like what the guy who works in marlborough posted.....he's gotta 3 or so inches in marlborough and an inch in brookline.....warm BL for the Loss....not like it was precipitating like gang buster's in marlborough all day was it? i mean i could be off on this there is so much compaction when it's light because the warm BL is melting what already accumulated nicely (when rates were good) .....it's asking too much to think were gonna get good rates from start to finish with little interruption.

Ginx snewx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 4.5 now, starting to let up Nice 3.75 here down the road a piece, freezing drizzle making things slick. Finished the clean up, made a snowman with the Grandkids, had a great snowball fight, life is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I was talking about ice earlier, I think it could be a huge issue tonight into Ct. I'm not sure about a huge issue.but it def is icy where there isn't salt or where they plowed and didn't salt...it all depends when we flip back to snow...does it happen like 2:00am or does it wait until 6 or 7:00am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many got 1-3". So if you mean widespread by like you road in Tolland, then yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ski MRG Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Nice band banking up against the east slope right now. Not moving much, just regenerating. Channel 40's 14+" for GC should have little trouble verifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Anyone worried that we're relying on legit convection firing to our west to blossom into "round 2". Seems a little more tenuous than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Round 2 might actually come in like an arm if lift. Basically almost like an inv trough, but then echoes may expand as the low develops. At leat that is the hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highways1 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 it's like what the guy who works in marlborough posted.....he's gotta 3 or so inches in marlborough and an inch in brookline.....warm BL for the Loss....not like it was precipitating like gang buster's in marlborough all day was it? i mean i could be off on this there is so much compaction when it's light because the warm BL is melting what already accumulated nicely (when rates were good) .....it's asking too much to think were gonna get good rates from start to finish with little interruption. The funny thing was that when I was leaving there it didn't seem like it was coming down particularly hard but it was even starting to stick on the roads a little. Where I work is at 450' versus my home which is 15' and I'm guessing while that isn't huge elevation compared to Brookline it makes a difference. There was a short time this evening when it was a coming down harder than it had at work and didn't appear to make a dent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
