powderfreak Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Man just beautiful in this band. Huge fluffy flakes. The snow has that lumpy appearance from the huge flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 A few parachutes here too but not dramatically heavy rates. As that discussion said it definitely died out a bit, but still building up a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 PF how much do you have? Only around 2" so far but the past hour accounted for a chunk of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 That's a nice AFD from BTV. I agree with the blocked flow targeting the CPV and western slopes if the deform band sets up overhead. Should be interesting tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 how do you feel about the overnight snow in your area? It's iffy. There's a warm layer around 800mb as it moves in (+1 to +2C). If we can wipe that out quickly it may get interesting. Either way it should be pretty dynamic. I'm expecting TSPLGS transitioning over to TSSN at times. There's quite a bit of lightning in NJ right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 Dry slotted for the last 45 minutes or so. This is always when the panic sets in. What if it's actually done, OMG, I'm the one in the screw zone this time etc.. And to add to it, I have a hard time trusting radar over here so I don't even get the thrill of saying "ooh, look at that band about to hit me".

BTW, I am officially starting to annoy myself with my hand wringing. It is kind of like trying to not get excited about the new girl. Finally you start going out and just after you start thinking she may be the one, she goes out to Burlington with some other guy and you stay in and have old Mac and cheese from the microwave.I'm going to bed and guess that I will wake up to about a new inch or so.

Allenson Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 As others, tappering off now after an excellent band during the late afternoon. Even sleet pellets involved in the mix now--the nerve! Further west is a surprise. 5.3" 25F, light snow/pellets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I am officially starting to annoy myself with my hand wringing. This was well modeled...there was a 3-6 hour period where a lot of models didn't have much measurable. The precip down in NJ right now will be our finale and the bulk of this storm. Hopefully it rips as we will need to get some good snow accumulations out of that.

Yeah, I can see the difference from the 18z run. Oh well. If I do as well as last week's SWFE (8") I'll be more than satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ono Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 just measured a grand total of 2.4" here. Probably was higher, but the recent addition of sleet/graupel probably compacted it a bit. It's all good- I'd rather have some heft to the snowpack than not. I'm not too worried about the latest NAM. I'd stick with the Euro a bit more- as it was the most consistent, and the NAM's been the crazy cousin jumping all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
