powderfreak Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Coming down. Hard. The dog was shaking off the snow every minute or so but it is just coming down so hard she gets covered immediately. I can't even see the edge of the parking lot anymore.

eyewall Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 NWS BTV also reports 1.8" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 26.5f squalls just ended 1.25" snow total unless more squalls later. Maybe this will keep temps a couple of degrees tomorrow but probably will just sublimate away quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 That product did well for these..even that band near the Lakes region. Looked like a little mesovort on the BTV radar with a finger of SHSN extending E into NH...almost along a weak WF or convergence zone there. Pretty cool. Pretty much a winter time MCS, with the warm air advection wing and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Looks like we've picked up a few tenths here. 28.4F...still some -SN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Grass blades completely covered now...solid white covering. That happened fast. Winter is here. Will get a measurement when it ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 1.7" new and still snowing, albeit much reduced from what it was. Looks like there's something else entering the northern Champlain Valley... mountain is probably going to do alright tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 OK, maybe 4k picnic tables are cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 OK, maybe 4k picnic tables are cool. Haha, its cooler when it happens below 1k like tonight. But I bet the mountain got crushed in that... if we have picked around 1.75" in the past hour, the mountain probably got 3, haha. Anyway, I think this was most impressive in BTV. Given the fact that they tend to get screwed in a lot of the meso-scale events, and that it hit hard between 6pm-7pm, I bet that had a pretty high impact in Burlington. Traffic and people heading out to dinner on a Saturday night, movies or other entertainment downtown. The college kids are probably loving it though, haha. I used to really enjoy that in college...you get a big squall or snow and everyone seems to go outside and wander the streets downtown. These obs are worth saving from BTV, too. Impressive to get the 1/8sm visibility. Almost case-study type stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 A little over 0.5". 28F with some very -SN continuing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Watching that radar, I bet J.Spin took home the gold this evening. He got what BTV got, but probably a little boost from the mountains and convergence in the Winooski Valley. We got hit good up here but we were a little north of the best echos that went in that BTV-Waterbury/Duxbury trajectory. Looks like we may tack on a little bit overnight as there's still moisture on the radar. Hopefully can squeak out another few tenths to get over 2" here before the arctic shot. Tomorrow will feel even more wintery now with the ground covered white for the arctic cold shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Ok so I lied here is one more which I believe this was the absolute peak (no enhancement) Nice. And I know its hard for night pictures to do it justice. It was like 15 minutes of choking snow, lol. This time of year even 3/4sm visibility snow seems pretty heavy... but 1/4sm to 1/8sm looked nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like throwing a white sheet over your car and then trying to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
