weatherMA Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 heavy band coming into PLY now. My vis really is dropping quickly. Heavy snow vis 1/8 temp 32.0F after reaching 32.1F earlier It's ripping now. We might have had 1" earlier but it melted before I saw it I guess because this band is the first accumulation I'm seeing on the roads/ sidewalks/driveways at least. 32.5F so even if we underachieve it should look nice. Definitely SN+ now. Sticking to the roads finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIcoastalWX Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Just had a major gust that HAD to exceed 50 MPH in Old Lyme. Wow. The notoriously low reading anemometer at the Westerly Airport gusted to 40kts Judging by the creaking of the house, I'm guessing we've had frequent gusts in the low 50's.... CL&P outages in SE CT increasing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 LOL check out the GYX radar and the snow hole riding right up 93. It's already lightening up here. It should be interesting to see if I even make it to WSW totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Moderate rain here with house shaking wind gusts and my house windows look like they got power washed. The temperature is steady now at 39F after hitting 40F. 40/31 split so far today, NWS forecasted high is 43S, so we'll see who is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahk_webstah Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Still RASN at CON despite the heavier echoes. No report from home yet. my partners says there were at least a couple of inches at home when he left...but was raining in contoocook and concord. We, like you , are at 700 ft and tooky is at like 450 I think and CON at 350? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahk_webstah Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I think even home is toast. 34.3 there well there are light echoes on a line due north from con with heavier echoes nnw. I wonder if the line slips south again as the coastal develops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Winds down on she shoreline this morning really caught me by surprise. We've been getting nearly constant gusts near 40 the last couple hours with a few gusts easily up around 50. Really nasty morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digityman Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 On the fence here, Nothing falling but i have some doubt's Not looking good. That R/S line keeps pushing up through LA it looks like. Do you think that R/S drops back down south at any point during this? (Coastal development?) Or is it once it's moves past you to the north/west, it stays there for the duration?

OceanStWx Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 White rain in Portland, but looks like it's ripping on the Sunapee Spruce Lodge webcam, and that's really all I care about at this point in the season. The elevations should start to clean up nicely as the LLJ pivots around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Just had a major gust that HAD to exceed 50 MPH in Old Lyme. Wow. Had one earlier when I was pumping gas that knocked me off balance. I assume these winds weren't modeled well...we've had high wind warnings that haven't been this impressive.

OceanStWx Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 you have become awfully jaded for such a youngin.... It is time to transfer to a non-downsloped school. The downslope paranoia has gotten to him. The best forcing up there was never supposed to be this early anyway. He should do fine once the LLJ impinges on the high terrain. They should do well enough on the east wind aloft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 lol...nothing more than a tiny coating here but that's all gone now. I'm surprised by that...we had sleet and mangled flakes along with the barest of coatings. The higher elevations had a little more so I would think at some point you had sleet or mangled flakes. Maybe we'll do better tonight. I stayed up until 11:30pm and it was drizzling then and it had been doing that since it started at around 9:30pm.

Also everyone around me is calling bust already and even though I know the best snow was supposed to be later today it still effects me. People are already complaining about the forecast.

I was struck at the difference from our house (according to my Partner as I am in India) at 700 feet on the Salisbury Webster line. and Contoocook at about 400 or 450 feet and Con where it is raining. so when the LLJ swings around it gets colder and the precip gets heavier?

ctsnowstorm628 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Windy as all hell down this way in CT. Gusted to 36mph on the Davis, which is a record. (I guess ENE is a good direction that's relatively unblocked). 42F with 0.88" rain for the storm so far with RA currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the hope was that this front end precip as the LLJ rotates north would be in the form of mostly snow due to lift dynamically cooling the column. However that part is busting at the lower elevations. Later today the LLJ will impinge on the high terrain and there they will have the better boundary layer and added lift to help cool the column further. For places without the elevation the hope will ride on whether any occlusion can push the warm layer aloft back to the south. Then precip rates may be able to overcome the marginal surface temps.

Record time! 2 hours after the storm started and people already calling bust! That is a very popular thing to do. If it doesn't rip as soon as flakes start flying the bust calls are many and loud. Many hours of precip left to go before people can cry bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I had sleet/ ice on bricks and driveway this morning when I went out at 5:00 am I was asleep at that hour so it could be. I woke up briefly at 2:30am and it was raining and 32.5F with no ice here. The more suprising fact was that it started to rain from the start here, with not a sleet pellet or snowflake and everyone and their grandma forecasted snow.
