12/14-12/15 Storm Obs Thread


Rib

Recommended Posts

It's tough to say for sure because of the winds last night but we likely had 10-12 at the pocono cabin. There was brief sleet and ice but not much at 2100ft.

Drifts were about 2ft on my side of the mt. We had upslope winds and a lot blew across. Light crust on trees and on top of snow.

Fun storm to watch last night for sure.

What is a nice lazy Football afternoon to most, have to admit the Sunday snow bowl last week was fun being in it, is an all out blizzard from the secondary which bombed out as expected, clipping Boston, and now ravaging Bangor, Maine, all of Maine, before heading into Nova Scotia. Perhaps our hardy northern neighbors, those with power, can get us some obs.

Got to love the current report if IP/SN mix up there and 10.4F

 

10-12" of snow falling with temps in single digits i need that some day

 

 

Current temp is 32F imby with a .2" ice encrusted postcard like landscape. Walking in the snow is like a journey over a giant cannoli. Snow depth stands at 6"

Ended up with 6" of snow and ice here in N Berks. Was amazing yesterday to watch surface temps dive all the way to 19* here during the height of the storm and to still have the change over to sleet and fz rn. Another thing that amazed me is that I'd say 80% of our snow accumulation came in a few hour period from about 4-7. It was absolutely coming down. Was out on my snowmobile and couldn't see my buddies after they got about 20-30 ft in front of me. I was so depressed when it changed over but then I reminded myself that it's only December and this is one heck of a start to the 13-14 winter season!

I'm impressed with how well Monmouth county did. Also that was some impressive frz rain, never seen it come down that fast.

As discussed with Isotherm, we both agree those Monmouth totals look a bit high and may be a case of double dipping new and existing snow. I measured 3.3" new and about 5" in the grass where an existing 1 to 2 remained. Of course, its a big county and we had some intense meso ahead of the fall line so anything was possible.

The Red Bank 4.7 looks legit, that's a CoCoRaHS report and he listed Trace snow depth the previous several days.
