J.Spin Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 1/3" of rainfall today. This morning’s reading of the rain gauge finds 0.64” from yesterday, bringing the month to 9.18”. This is somewhat notable because although I only have liquid data since 2010, this month just surpassed August 2011 (9.04”) for the wettest month in my records, and that previous high mark was due in large part to a deluge of over four inches from Tropical Storm Irene. So indeed it’s been especially wet, and apparently the month’s rain isn’t done yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Photo from the Vermont State Police of water on the side of I-89 in Williston (near BTV)... the right hand lane is closed due to undermining. I'm amazed this happened in Vermont, yet we can get no reports from the stuff that stayed stationary in Maine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mansfield work-roads are in some dire need of grading...riding the ATV to the summit gets more interesting by the day. Hey, it's gonna rain today. That's different. O. Wait. No isn't. Ugh. Nice morning however. I asked BTV about the wettest May/June combinations on record... it is not even close.

Naturally it made me think about the more exciting potential for such a coupling during a pair of the colder months, so I checked back in my data to see what they revealed. A look at the liquid data for our location back through Jan 2010 reveals that the pairing of Feb/Mar 2011 with 9.52” of liquid takes the top spot for Dec/Jan/Feb/Mar possibilities. Snowfall for that couplet was decent, with 87.7” of snow, but unfortunately there’s always a chance of precipitation types other than snow affecting the data, so maximum total liquid and maximum snowfall won’t necessarily correlate. Indeed this is born out with the couplet of Jan/Feb 2011 delivering 103.6” of snow on just 6.48” of liquid. The top snow couplet in my data is Dec/Jan 2008-2009 with 106.8” of snow, but unfortunately I don’t have the liquid measurements from back then.

tamarack Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I'm amazed this happened in Vermont, yet we can get no reports from the stuff that stayed stationary in Maine. Yesterday's estimates had some 2-3" areas around Sugarloaf - must've been backside because the Carrabasset had a very modest rise. Sandy came up a lot more, but peaked under 4,000 cfs (flood is at 14K), despite a pixel showng 4"+ near Madrid. Lots of much lower precip in the watershed, though. The larger area of 2-3"+ was north of Flagstaff, thus drained either into that lake or into the Dead between Long Falls Dam and Grand Falls. Maybe blew out some secondary logging roads or brook crossings, but things like that rarely get wide report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Mansfield is getting the party started early tonight... been seeing lightning and hearing long, low rumbling and it looks like Mansfield could get a decent shot of liquid here in a short period of time as this cell does not appear to be going anywhere quickly.

Lava Rock Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 No way we're getting 2-3". Only 0.27" in the bucket and most hvy rn is almost over. These last few events remind me of snowstorm predictions; 6-10" and we end up with 4". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adk Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Few bands of heavy rain moving through BTV this morning. Guess we're at about 1" maybe 1.25 total. Essex Co. NY seems to be getting a lot more rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 1.10" here this am, And still getting +SHRN, I must of been in the jackpot.............. Probably not done either. HRRR looks to be handling current convection pretty well, and forecasts more development moving northeast into this area. However, I'm still more interested in the clearing and potential thunderstorms for NH this afternoon. A few of those could be strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part 2 of our Ryder cup match against Fox Ridge is at Springbrook in Leeds on Saturday, What happens today is really going to have a bearing on whether we play their tomorrow or not, The brook runs thru the middle of the course on numerous holes and with that course being clay based once the brook exceeds its banks, We are usually done as it becomes unplayable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think the "see text" may cause me to cancel. Tough time of year to leave at the end of my shift when storms are around and everyone is on vacation.
