HoarfrostHubb Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 big ole bloviator blizz can't even tell us his snow total for this event... lol Congrats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Well, then I am screwed... little precip. Although the temps were perfect I meant temps more so than snow. I think every precip event we had in Nov here was snow. There may have been one nite where we had like .04 from a rain shower fropa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 The models were definitely a bit too warm in the low levels...but we thought they might be but we knew they would be wholeheartedly with slam dunk certitude yesterday. They were fairly decent on QPF though. The lower sfc temps have allowed for probably a bit further east coverage on the minor accumulations. I don't think overall the models busted bad or anything. It was a classic setup where you take a few degrees off their projected sfc temps...which is what we often do anyway when there is a strong sfc high in N Maine or that vicinity. yeah, agreed. word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 2002 was one of the rare Novembers where snow pack held into the base building time of December (courtesy of the back to back 11/27 and 11/29 events)....though it did get dented a bit on 11/30. But then a cold front came through for the 1st of Dec which set the airmass in place for the anomalous Dec 5th event for the M.A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 BOS still had a north wind...its going to take a good long while for the interior to rise above freezing. Particularly where the east slopes of the interior hills tuck that cold up against them. East slopes of Berks and N ORH hills/Monads could be rotting in the upper 20s to 30/31 well into tonight I think. I wonder if they fail to reach above freezing until tomorrow morning. I think that might happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to mention Nov 95. We had that early morning event on the 29th that carried over into the meat and potatoes of winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know 1960-1961 had 101 days of 1" or more. Not sure what the record is though. '00-'01 is up there too. So is '02-'03. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I would think GInx's dry worries would be diminished if the GFS/GEFS SE ridge verified in the extended...that would open up the Gulf. Yea saw that, man I hope so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So nice to have flakes flying everywhere though. I only had 1 snow event in 2002, one was a minor icing event. Anyone know what 2002 monthly average was at the 4 major climo sites in the BOX area?

Anyone know what 2002 monthly average was at the 4 major climo sites in the BOX area? It was -2 here that month...there was a pretty big torch in the week leading up to the mid-month icing event which kept the month from being something like a -4 or -5.
