powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 3-6 at the top? 2-4 in the parking lot?Hopefully. What's funny is that's what we all said in Ops this morning, haha. That this would be a 3-6" event for us in the winter. The climo totals for FROPAs with residual upslope.I love this stuff...makes the boring time of year at least semi-interesting when we get these cold shots. It gets me pumped for winter and after all the humidity of July...this feels awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 ditto. Not that it was mega interesting, but at least you guys caught those heavy rains a couple of weeks ago. I can't remember the last time I was in a legit tstm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 1-3 at the village.lol probably not far off.Earlier when I left home we had only 0.08" liquid in my rain gauge in the village but 0.3" up at the one at 1500ft base of the mountain. Say 20:1 ratio in January and its 6" at the mountain with 1.5" in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather take that given how pleasant the temps are. Big heat in July here and nothing to show....might as well take the San Diego weather and run. But, NNE has had some good storms this summer. I don't like to whine, but an awful..awful summer wx wise for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those NWS offices have a lot of time for "special projects" and research, lol. That's after debating in the AFD whether to go partly sunny instead of just mostly sunny in the long range.

CapturedNature Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 This might be the most boring summer wx wise I can remember for me personally. lol, we've had a lot of excitement around here - Don't forget that it was the hottest July EVER at BDL. That kept me on the edge of my seat. I know the public was riveted by how long the high dp stretch was going to last, calls by professional meteorologist for hurricanes during specific dates a month away, patterns that didn't change but actually did. I'm sure there's more but in all the excitement I'm just blanking on them. honestly could you imagine living in san diego and dealing with this all year? the only weather question being how long it takes the marine layer to thin out? dear god. I read a study years ago that said that people in the warm sub-tropical climates like south Florida and San Diego have poorer memories than people that live in other parts of the country because they have no seasonal reference point to relate to. It said that most people recall events and when they happened based on what time of year it was or relative to a particular weather event. It was interesting because the more changing the weather, the better people could tell the researcher when certain events occurred. Rain is through here and the sun is peaking out with temps holding in the mid-50s. Perfect mid-September weather. This will get more of the trees changing. I was reading on another forum that our cool August weather could lead to good sugar production in maple trees next spring so we'll see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Down to 34F officially now at MMNV1. Wind chill of 24F. My hands and feet are frozen.

ApacheTrout Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 49F in Orwell at noon, with a light breeze from the north. Brrrr. Not quite as a raw as Stowe, but oh boy, what a change from Wednesday's 91F here. Fall is winning the battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess would be like 29-30 for OWD? Maybe the same for ORE or perhaps 28 or so. Maybe 32 for TAN. Just a guess..I could be off by a couple.

Just a guess..I could be off by a couple. That sounds about right, as dendrite was saying CON's is 28F. Tomorrow morning up here the records are 29-30ish in the interior VT ASOS sites, but its a vulnerable date, as this morning's record low at MPV is 25F. Crazy how much the records jump around this time of year, even with like 50+ years of data...late September has records like 22F one day, then 28F, then 24F, 21F, 27F, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should add that the record high low for the day is 70° in 1991 but it's the last one of the year. Everything after tomorrow is <66° (thank God!). I'm not expecting to break my record but all forecasts indicate my first solid 30's of the season the next couple of nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I like the last line of the AFD...we've stalled at 34F up at the top of the lift system at the ski resort. No flakes. Just mist/drizzle. "Still could see an isolated light shower or sprinkle across the northern mountains through mid-afternoon...but as deep-layer drying continues under northwesterly planetary boundary layer flow this should come to an end shortly if not already. Currently seeing a spot 60f down in the kvsf area...elsewhere cooler...near steady temperatures from 46 to 54 through the remainder of the afternoon looks more or less on track. Keep those jackets handy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Only 42 in Pittsburg NH FTW. Yeah awesome stuff today...48/38 in the valley at MVL (2pm) will easily be our coldest afternoon of the season. But the upslope cooling has the far northern NH areas and Green Mountain (particularly west slope) communities in the low to mid 40s. A couple 43F readings in Addison County, SE of BTV, 40F up at Bolton Valley, and also mid 40s even southeast of Rutland. Look at the upslope/downslope temp differences between that pocket of mid 40s SE of KRUT, and then the 65-70F temps one county southeast in the CT River Valley near MA/VT/NH border.

moneypitmike Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Driving just east of Rutland (VT), car regsitered 46.

powderfreak Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Turned out to be a nice afternoon even with temps in 34-36 range and wind chills well in the 20s...

tamarack Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Records for tomorrow/Wednesday mornings at the local COOP are 28/29; I don't think they get there, maybe 32/33. My 15-yr numbers are 28/31, and I've got some chance at each of them, though I'd put it at less than 50/50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
