Snow Bow Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I still dont know why im under an advisory between the snow and ice we pretty much already reached warning criteria and they way its starting to look there may be more on the way think it has to be a certain percentage of the county getting warning criteria. maybe that's not the case? Just guessing not really sure what county you live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 how do Euro soundings look for Boston? I can't get soundings but the 850 temps stay cold enough...sfc is flirting in that 34F range a lot until later tom afternoon when it drops. If we get the goods toward dawn, it should be snow there, otherwise you're probably waiting until tomorrow afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 The first of that stuff (formerly convection) from western NY has reached here as blinding snow grains and graupel. 29.7F. Yeah that line means business out there...seeing all the lightning reports on the ASOS sites out there was impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring started down there in Feb. Usually I go to Ocala and that kind of stuff is happening in northern FL now ...not VA. Flowers are blooming in spots. Yes.

Logan11 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Ok alls fair. .....never would have thought you wouldn't manage 5" in three weeks of February, but it was close.

I think you'll end up doing pretty well overall...Boston I'd be a little more worried about. I think a lot of us will rip when this 2nd round comes in based on radar...we'll see though. You still have tomorrow afternoon to fall back on anyway where your area will be the most favored in SNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxsniss Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 1:30am Box AFD update, holding with decent totals Boston-north: Near term /until 6 am this morning/... 130 am update...temperatures continue to hold steady or slowly rise across southeast Massachusetts as easterly flow intensifies. Already seeing a period of wintry mix along and south of I-90 in Massachusetts...with areas farther south transitioning to just plain rain. Regional radars showing a dynamic system getting ready to move over our region later this morning. This should not only bring a period of moderate to heavy precipitation this morning...but it should also cause the atmosphere to cool once again before the precipitation ends...meaning at least a little more snow before all is said and done. && Short term /6 am this morning through 6 PM Friday/... expect periods of snow or mixed precipitation to continue for much of Thursday as coastal low slowly meanders S of ack for much of the day. Persistent Ely low level jet will focus the steadiest snowfall across north zones and particularly across NE Massachusetts and the Merrimack valley where a period of heavy snow is possible. As a result we expanded the Winter Storm Warning eastward to include bos northward along coastal Essex County. South of the Mass Pike...the precipitation is expected to be lighter but the column will also be cooling during the day as the winds back. So we expect any rain or mixed precipitation to eventually change back to snow before ending. Additional minor accumulate is possible away from the S coast. In addition...gusty east/NE winds will continue over the cape/islands and east coastal Massachusetts. This is a difficult snowfall forecast due to the uncertainty in the northward extent of middle level warming and how much enhancement occurs with low level jet. Our current forecast is for 8-12" north of the Pike and 4-8" from bos northward along coastal Essex County. 2-6" north of hfd-pvd-tan to the Mass Pike and a coating to 2" along the S coast.

ORH_wxman Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Here's a cool look at the dual pol at work....you can see how defined the sleet line is south of ORH and also look how it bends to the southeast into RI which we know should happen because the colder air was a bit deeper to the east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
