eyewall Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The scene in Winooski this evening. Looks like I punted too soon . The I-89 overpass is 0.2 miles from where this was shot and you can't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Event totals: 5.2” Snow/0.59” L.E. The snow seemed to be falling at roughly an inch an hour this afternoon, and indeed it’s dense, synoptic stuff, coming in above 10% H20. Details from the 5:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 5.0 inches New Liquid: 0.57 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 8.8 Snow Density: 11.4% H2O Temperature: 23.0 F Sky: Snow (1-3 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 15.0 inches Even with the small flakes, it still seems to be running around the 1”/hr pace, with ~6 inches on the gauge at the J&E Productions Live Web Cam as of 6:00 P.M.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Eyewall has his dendrites. They definitely are dendrites. The wind plays havoc with them in each gust, but dendrites none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice shot of snow equivalent being injected though. Eyewalls photo looks a lot bigger in flake size than here. It's almost like a sleety snow.

moneypitmike Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 9.5 inches as of 5:45 pm. Judging by the trees, I'd say we have sustained winds in the 18-24 mph, with gusts 30-35 mph. Visibility is around 500 ft. awesome! 33F RA 0.63" of wasted liquid I'm shocked that you and I have the same temp.

Yeah, the snow is piling up, but I haven't really seen a decent dendrite all day...someone with better met knowledge than I might be able to offer an explanation. In any case, just got in from a preliminary snow-blow of the driveway. Just touching 7" as of 6:30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, just got in from a preliminary snow-blow of the driveway. Just touching 7" as of 6:30pm I can safely say that if we had dendrites with this system, we'd be up to like 10-15" already and 3"/hr. Right now we are getting like 0.1-0.15" melted per hour, but these are like bullet flakes. Very small stuff. Gotta be the warm mid levels...we'll probably go to better flakes in the final bands later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
