CoastalWx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I can go 1/2 mile from my house and see bare ground, disgusting winter. Amazing yesterday was the first sleet I saw all winter. I too need a weenie break. Yeah all my snow is gone too. Luckily, the nightmare is almost over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Yeah all my snow is gone too. Luckily, the nightmare is almost over. Kinda off sucks for me, third week in March is our week long ski fest, at least the beer will be cold. They have a ton of snow now and man made but spring skiing is fantastic.

CoastalWx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 That CF is now almost n-s oriented, just inside the city. Even BVY is still east of the front. It's like this thing is torturing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Kev think you hit 7? I'm not sure I'll be able to get 2 tonight..but 1 should be fairly easy..Temp has crashed to 28.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Not true The Euro sucked. I'm trying to shovel out from the 6 inches + they gave me but the shovel broke. GFS had this at least for MBY from the beginning. They were right in the warmer appeal. Euro shat the bed. It had BOS and the Pike in the jackpot for the whole time. In the end, GFS was more correct in targeting NNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, GFS was more correct in targeting NNE. I don't agree..Round 1 the Euro nailed to a T..You were never supposed to do well with round 1 which the Euro had correct. Euro always targeted western SNE with round 1. Round 2 the Euro didn;t do so hot..but to say the GFS was better for the whole event is wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For days the thermal profile on the GFS had me getting little to no snow with round 1..Then it finally caught on..after it had me as rain or little snow for days.

mahk_webstah Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 21F with the 3/4-1SM -SN continuing although the snow growth continues to be solid. I am surprised you aren't getting heavier snow...looks like a nice enhanced band north of CON...but maybe it misses you just to the south? Would seem like Boscawen and Canterbury would be getting dumped on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bch2014 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Interesting train ride home today... It was raining when I left the JFK/Umass station at 3:30... When I arrived at Porter Square it was snowing lightly but not accumulating. As we headed west there was only a coating in Belmont and by the time we got to Concord, there is 3-4 inches of heavy, dense, crusty snow on the ground. It is currently snowing moderately. Maybe we can hit 6"? I am sure if I had used proper measuring methods I would already have about 5.5" or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how folks won';t admit that It was fine for round 1. I think it pinged you at the end, but it did just fine imo, especially if you figured it was a bit too warm in the mid levels.

Mr Torchey Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Euro was an absolute disaster with rd one and rd two.............it gave me frozen every single run, and the day before gave me almost .5 all frozen. It completely failed on round 2 as the precip last night stayed well south, it showed the convection to the south over sne, it was a complete and total failure, gfs always had the thump for interior ct, it was spot on here.

weathafella Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Snowing now. Have a business dinner in Newton and then home. I'm mailing it in and I sincrely hope we don't get enough to hit 9 inches which means it has to stop soon. It is starting to whiten things again at JP. You can't win...

NorthShoreWx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I worked from home most of the day today, then had a call out in Farmington at Miss Porters School.Amazing difference. 5 inches OTG here with trees still caked in ice with no melting. Once you get down to 700 feet..no ice on trees but still snowcovered..I went down the hill on 84 into Vernon and there is no snow OTG all thru East hartford, HFD and West Hartford. As soon as I hit Farmington line ..snowcover again. Snow is now sticking to pavement here at home..Snowing at a nice clip..looks like we may pick up an inch o 2 if lucky tonight Trying to relive the glory days af March, are we? http://www.islandnet.com/~see/weather/graphics/photos0708/blizzard_1888n.jpg http://wintercenter.homestead.com/photo1888e.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
