MainePhotog Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 -SN 28.1°F. Was not expecting any snow today. Wind picking up. Ice covered tree branches sound ominous in the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 You can get a good idea of the sharp cutoff of the rain/snow line on the 9z sref....S NH basically has the same probability (at least very similar) of 1" vs. 4". Seems like wherever that line is...will go from not much to a solid 3-5" SF relatively quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine Guide Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 This storm could have a significant impact on electrical distribution in portions of Maine. Yesterday I drove from Augusta to Raymond. There is a cut-off south of Lewiston where there is only snow on trees. From Lewiston to Augusta there is serious icing on trees with some folks just getting power back last night. The heavy band of icing extends east from Augusta to Lincolnville, across Penobscot Bay and then down east along the coast. Many big trees are already at max. No sun up here today to help with the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends in the interior and they just got power back and are worried, zero melting today too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heavy band of icing extends east from Augusta to Lincolnville, across Penobscot Bay and then down east along the coast. Many big trees are already at max. No sun up here today to help with the ice. Only half as thick ice here in the Farmington area, but that would be enough to turn a wet snow event into a real tree-wrecker. Hoping for fluff. (Like the 30:1 flurry that puffed 0.6" here and over an inch in Temple, 2 towns west, about noon yesterday. Gorgous dendrites, though I saw them only on Facebook as AUG got nada.) 06 gfs super frigid next week. FVE shown with -18/-46 on Thursday; if that verified, it would easily be the coldest daily mean I've ever seen for New England.

Logan11 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 The NAM says that Steve verifies his 4-8" here anyway. I hope it works out because my guess is that the next system is fringe city here. Looks like a fast big hit for Coldfront also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Nice set of 12Z runs here so far. Unfortunately with much of SNE out of the game this thread is on life support. lol... J.Spin commented on that in the NNE thread to some effect that model analysis has fallen off a cliff with this one. Its almost like we should pack up our toys and head to the NNE thread. Anway, here's the latest 12z BTV4 QPF for the system... looks juicy but usually will over-do the orographics to some extent. I think the placement of QPF looks fine though. Should be a picturesque wet snowfall for many in CNE/NNE...I especially like the Sunday River area back through the Whites and to the Killington area east of RUT. The higher terrain in that band will likely come close to jackpotting, but if a little further south of that line sees all snow, I'd say Lewiston to Dendrite to Southern VT takes the jackpot prize.

powderfreak Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Dendrite what's your take on Sunday River? Looks like 5-10 to me? I'd feel very comfortable with that. The fast movement with this system would probably put 10" at the max end, but I don't see how you'd get less than 5" either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Yeah, 12Z NAM is pretty juicy, GFS not as much but still a good hit. I like the colder air coming in from the NW. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
