weathafella Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Ahhh. Maybe Monday then The torch continues Tomorrow should be in the 60s with southerly winds.

N. OF PIKE Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 i'm wondering if some high elevations in western new england suprise with some snow dumps tonite....i.e killington .....stowe 3k ....or even savoy at 2400' yes i know it's about the rain but this seems close tonite for the green mountains at 2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N. OF PIKE Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Man it is cold, too. Its 39F here at 800ft but 2,200ft on Mansfield is showing 33F and same elevation at Bolton is 34F. Summit of Mansfield down to 29F now and continues to fall. Puts the freezing level at around 2,500ft right now. watchin obs. from the greens and even the berks/tactonics2- 2500 feet anywhere in western mass seems to get interesting tonite in heavy bands as nite falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsnowstorm628 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 My amateur totals will verify nicely ait Yeah but they will shift northward and westward with the progression of the low. But yea, 3-4" is pretty solid for the oro enhanced areas like the ORH hills, Monads, and NW hills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 This is a gem from BUF AFD: ALONG WITH THE HEAVY WET SNOW...THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME THUNDERSNOW. LOCAL RESEARCH FROM THIS OFFICE HAS SHOWN THAT FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR THUNDERSNOW INCLUDES A DEEP MIXED PHASE CLOUD LAYER (>4K FT) AND A TALL ENOUGH CLOUD (GEN >10K FT) FOR ANY GENERATED CHARGE TO SEPARATE. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CERTAINLY BE MET AS THE MIXED PHASE CLOUD WILL BE ROUGHLY 10K FT DEEP WITH MODERATE SYNOPTIC LIFT THROUGH A WEAKLY CAPPED MOIST ENVIRONMENT. THUNDERSNOW IS MOST LIKELY EXPERIENCED WITHIN SINGLE BANDED LAKE SNOWS (PARTICULARLY EARLY SEASON EVENTS)...AND IN DEFORMATION ZONES OF MARGINALLY COLD SYNOPTIC STORMS WHERE MIXED PRECIPITATION IS COMMON. THE PRESENCE OF GRAUPEL IS NEEDED TO ALLOW ELECTRIFICATION TO BEGIN AND THUS THE NEED FOR THE DEEP MIXED PHASE CLOUD. THE CHANCE FOR THUNDER HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE HEAVY SNOW AREAS.

CoastalWx Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 The mixed phase wording does not mean snow and sleet. It;s the combo of supercooled droplets and ice crystals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rain has now started with round 2... 0.65" from last night and early this morning so we'll see what the 2-day total ends up being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Ahh I was thinking graupel/snow/snow pellets or something was what they were talking about. Well graupel is important, but I've seen TSSN in pure denrites. Graupel usually indicates convection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Good discussion from BTV on the brief winter weather side up here for the start of this event... WL ISSUE WINTER WX ADVISORY FOR DACKS FROM 00Z THRU 12Z MONDAY...FOR COMBINATION OF SNOW/SLEET AND HIGH ELEVATION FREEZING RAIN ABOVE 2000 FT. SOUNDINGS CONT TO SHOW A COLD LAYER BTWN 925MB AND 870MB OF TEMPS BTWN -1C AND -3C THRU MOST OF THE EVENT...SUPPORTING A MIXTURE OF PRECIP...HOWEVER WITH STRONG ADVECTION OF WARM AIR ALOFT WITH 825MB TEMPS WARMING TO 5C BY 12Z MONDAY...EXPECT MAINLY RAIN BY MORNING. IN ADDITION...SOME LIGHT ICING WL BE POSSIBLE ACRS THE SUMMITS OF THE GREEN MTNS FROM KILLINGTON TO MANSFIELD TO JAY PEAK...WITH MAYBE A BURST OF SNOW WHEN PRECIP 1ST STARTS THIS EVENING. SNOW/SLEET ACCUMULATION ACRS THE DACKS WL BE A DUSTING TO 2 INCHES WITH ONLY MINOR AMOUNTS ACRS THE GREEN MTNS. I was wondering about freezing rain and/or sleet as 2,200ft on Mansfield is now at 32F and 4,000ft is 29F. Also, 2,100ft in the Bolton Valley neighborhood is 33F. It is now precipitating so there may be some marginally frozen or freezing precipitation above 2,000ft as BTV says. http://mesowest.utah...e.cgi?stn=MMSV1 http://www.wundergro...sp?ID=KVTBOLTO2 However, I do not think its snow in the higher elevations based on what I can see. I've gotten pretty good at being able to tell what's falling just by looking at the mountain and using the visibility... and to me it looks like rain up to the cloud bases at 3,000ft. None of that wispy white look that's classic snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
