Scuddz Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Cwg is terrible Because you didn't get 2-4" you thought you were getting despite the forecast for a half inch? Sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Grass is starting to turn a hint of white tho it's still mostly melting faster than falling. We might eke out a 0.1-0.2 or so with this last bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I was very afraid of the column...probably more than I should have been, but surface temps were perfectly fine last night when everyone was concerned...even without a high pressure...since when did 36/27 become a bad early evening temp reading the night before a storm? I was less "concerned" about them than wanting them to max their bottoming potential which they really didn't. But, they still fell quite nicely once the precip fell. An extra degree or two can make a big difference though of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Almost an inch in Germantown as the edge nears. I am pretty happy with it as I expected nothing the way things looked at 6 am. I wasn't looking for any snow at all on the 24th and 26th -- both one inchers -- so I am satisfied with this week. Looks like cold and dry for a while but you never know what can pop up.

Hank Scorpio Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Down to flurries. Measured .75 inch on the high end and .5 inch on the low end. Fun to see accumulating snow three times in a six day span Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precip type is fine, but surface temps are killing us. It is nice to see big fat flakes in the air, but they are melting as fast as they are accumulating. I won't be able to go above 0.2" with a straight face despite a couple of hours of decent rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 As a kid you didn't know the potential for any storm based on a model..you couldn't usually say what could have been..you wake up its snowing you're happy you go play....ahhhh so much better than moaning about what it was supposed to be or is somewhere else... I woke up it snowed and accumulated for the third time this week and it was Christmas to boot! Yay snow!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we spent a long time talking about temps but they have been mostly a non-issue. It wasn't like we were 60 before the storm like sometimes happens. It has been cold enough for the past week with a good sun angle situation. We probably should have been paying more attention to the dual-low structure sapping our precip. Some were talking about that, certainly (Bob Chill for one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
