CoastalWx Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Yeah that was an impressive event for the NEK.... but it wasn't necessarily an "upslope" event. I'm not really surprised at the 6" depth in my front yard but more that those 4-6" amounts were realized in spots that usually don't do well in snow shower type events. The model QPF though did show a widespread area of around 0.2" QPF...and we had 20:1 ratios which took what looked like a 1-3" event into an advisory level event. The model QPF was more spread into NEK and N.NH than it usually is in orographic situations... but this almost performed like a clipper more than an upslope event. Yeah you are right. Just some good synoptics. WAA ahead of the front and obviously the push with the front along with a pretty nice s/w will help squeeze out the QPF. Probably a little convergence from the air piling up too. I think the front was pretty shallow at first...IE low inversion heights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 It might be like that tomrrow morning, but right now, there is still dry air trying to advect south. That's why the returns from NY State have been shriveling up as they head east. Could be but I have a feeling the hills snow lightly all night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N. OF PIKE Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Somehow 200 inches at 17K where bigfoot lives without a ski lift just does not excite me, if there is a lift now show me a PNC with that . We just need to get bigfoot a camera. Mammoth and kirkwood should be cleaning up with bases at 8k and 7.8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Man today's cold has been impressive.... so far since midnight, at Morrisville-Stowe Airport (MVL) the max has been 19F (that was at midnight, the daytime high is 14F) and the minimum was 1F this morning. We almost had our first sub-zero morning but alas couldn't quite make it. Today's high/low: 19/1 Average: 38/21 The midnight high temp was already below our average low...and the afternoon high temp was 7F below the normal low. Pretty impressive cold.

moneypitmike Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 One will be December, unless you pull off .2" in the next few hours by some weenie miracle. No, that's correct. Parts of NE Mass, and southern NH up to about Dendrite got an 1"+. Western NE didn't fare as well, hence why I said MOST of sne. I meant the part of you being the last. We'll get ours eventually.

It would be nice to have a fresh snowpack to allow for cooler air. Alas--I should still have my coldest night of the young season.
