moneypitmike Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 00z NAM says precip continues for another 3-6" along the immediate coast (north shore through bos and south shore) thru 6am Good stuff. Pretty moon out here in GC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Rippin now. Big fat flakes. Looks like there may have been some convergence around the Boston area? Banding got darker as it came onshore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 You're getting blitzed. I was just curious to know what you were doing to get your storm total amount. Like if you're just measuring the snow depth or if you're adding up the totals that you clear off (and the frequency of clearing). Either way it sounds awesome down there. my storm totals will always be low, tends to be more of "what's on the ground." I looked at that band coming and figured for once I was going to actually give some good data. That was really cool. But also understand that was light light powdery snow. If someone from Sagamore or Manomet reports 12-15" at 11, take that total over mine as I don't clear every six hours. The photo I posted earlier of the porch, I can't take another one because the back doors are snowed in. That's how much has fallen I'm still in shock.

snowNH Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I don't know how the NAM is thinking that much more for BOS. RUC suggests another area of precip coming onto the NH and MASS shoreline around 7 am tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCPSUSuperstorm2010 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I hope the snow fills back in soon. Otherwise we will be tapering to flurries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Very dry stuff. I'd defer to Brian for that but I'd suspect 15:1. The dendritic growth in that band is probably so insane that if you could measure it without the crystals getting torn apart in the BLSN it'd probably be 25:1.

DeVries Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 What seems cool to me that band is eventually going to stall and snow itself out and some body is going to get annihilated. We need this to stall right now! Vis down to 1/4 mile... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 The cape and islands should continue to snow for quite awhile in the wake of this band. Further north...the precip shuts off rather abruptly after band passage. Moon was visible pretty quickly after band passage here in Maine...and that could be the case in BOS and surrounding areas within the next hour or two. Although I'd rather have it snow more...the full moon reflects nicely off the freshly fallen snow. Isn't there supposed to be some sort of lunar eclipse tonight? I thought I saw something about that on the news tonight. May not have been for here. Yup. Full lunar eclipse. First time in 456 years it's happened in conjunction with the solstice, Somehow, I don't think our SE friends are going to mind missing the eclipse.

cpickett79 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 looks like NE RI and the blackstone, ma area (big rombowski) is into some prolonged steady snow......progressing toward moderate and then probably heavy i wonder if this band will dissipate somewhere? it is acting strangely over plymouth county now....i.e seems like it has moved more Westerly now then the previous WSW. just started snowing decently again here in w. framingham.....

Arnold214 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I don't know how the NAM is thinking that much more for BOS. I think it's wrong unfortunately.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 race will be on here I think I'm about to get dryslotted but at the same time it looks like it wants to fill in from the east and another 25-30dbz band is forming off barnstable.

Ginx snewx Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Yup. Full lunar eclipse. First time in 456 years it's happened in conjunction with the solstice, Somehow, I don't think our SE friends are going to mind missing the eclipse. Reason I really thought a great storm would be spawned, both coasts too just too far off for us. There is more to weather generation than we know however minute the effect is.

You said that the Cape will continue to get heavy snow, do you still think that, even when we are tapering to flurries right now? Also given the numerous 12"+ amounts across the outer Cape, I think it is accurate enough to say that 13.5" is a good measurement for Harwich, MA.
