Winds have veered from the S to the NE... Still only 2 to 5 mph. Nothing like that up here in the snow belt...maybe a half inch so far. I hope you jackpot for this storm and maybe the next event??

DomNH Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Eyeballing around a half inch, would be surprised to eek out 2'' at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better down in New London County, Rhode Island, and SE Mass .You think some of those models that develop more stuff over ENY and WCt and rip it east are correct or are we just about done?

Unfortunately it's only sustainable with small amounts. When you start racking up the 3-4"+ the weight of the snow compresses upon itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattb65 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Radar looks like junk but if those meso models are right, some echoes in NY move east and blow up in SNE. I don't have much faith but we'll know in a few hours lol. I think they may just be meso-low happy and are spinning up a spurious low to suck precip north.

There are some bands out in CNy and NE Pa but I don't know if they'll blossom for us . You can see how it happens like the mesos show.

Its the type of stuff where you can easily see the ruler through the first inch of snow and its snowing cotton balls, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell, I said this morning was hoping for a dusting but honestly never thought it would be this bad, a couple flurries and nothing on the ground, would have accumulated very quickly even with a 15 minute burst of light to moderate snow. Oh well:) lets hope things turn out well for our friends out east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patfan1987 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'm happy and waiting. Real stuff not supposed to come down for a while still. 23/20 and snowing. Maybe a 1/2 on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
