weathafella Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 The public behaves this way for every storm including 78. This guy at work said "not much of a storm so far.." I told him he'd rethink that by dark. I hope people don't get caught out and unable to travel. The MBTA did the right thing. Snow increasing here near the north end nearly at waters edge...and starting to whiten the sidewalks. The only non concrete is covered but too far away to judge how much. BOS 33/30 with 3/4 vis -sn.

tamarack Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Difficult to judge snow depth from my office window, but someone just walked across the lawn and made some better visual clues. Looks like 5-6" here in AUG, or close to 1"/hr since the moderate (vis 3/8) band arrived between 8-9 this morning. Nice dendrites, cold temps, moderate winds means ratio probably in the 20-25 range. The 2" report from the 'Loaf about 11:20 tells me that MBY may still be working on 1st inch, as places north of my area had 10-20 dbz most of the 3+ hr of no echoes over the Route 2 snowshield region. Lots of time to play catch-up, though, and GYX late morn revision upped the S.Franklin forecast to 12-18" from the earlier 10-14". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summerthyme Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Light to moderate snow currently with a temp of 33.3. I don't thing I'll get as much as forecast here so I'm going with 16" final. Not even a half inch yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Curry Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Just shy of an inch of snow at 12:30 PM in South Kingstown, RI. Started snowing just before 8:00 AM. Temp hanging at 33 and within 0.5 degree of where it was at 7:00 AM. Light, and lighter, snow now than an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Noticed that the wind is really starting to rip here in the last 10-15 minutes. No mixing, but hopefully the temps begin to fall soon. No mixing fears at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Got full on heavy snow here, rare for me to go all out SN+ but think we have it here, it's ripping and the winds are starting to pick up. Last measurement was 2.4" a few minutes ago, already my footprints are filling in. 2 pics are a close up full iPhone zoom of the flakes, and the other is most the full back yard(trees off to the right of the house excluded, not much snow there because giant copper beech keeps it from accumulating.) with guest house off to the right(not much snow on that roof, it's slate and the snow slides off quickly.) It's getting fun around here! Pics should be in another post, it's not letting me post them for some reason. -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabize Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 dang, that coastal front is sitting right on top of me...and no enhancement what so ever...i seem to be getting the lightest snow out of those of you reporting totals an intensities...temp hovering 32.0-32.2...still not sticking to pavement... Doesn't sound very different from what I see here except for the temp. I thought it was really changing there for about 5 minutes, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertSul Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 First statewide travel ban since '78? Impressive, but not sure that's correct. I seem to recall there was a ban during the April 1997 blizzard as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
