HoarfrostHubb Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Terminal Aerodrome Forecast. It's basically a forecast geared for aviation purposes and for a specific terminal. Thanks. I figured it was one of your airplane thingsHow do they figure 1/4 mile S+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 BOX has 1/4SM S+ in their TAF for ORH from 08z through 14z. Seems a little bullish. I'm just a chump for going 2SM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Measured (or tried to - lots of drifting) 9.0" at 9 PM, making 6.0" since I got home from work at 4:50. Porch stairs had closer to 15 as it was blowing off the roof. LE was 1.27" (core was 1.25" and pail was 1.29" so I averaged.) My wife said it rained for a couple hours late morning after starting as light snow, was back to light snow by noon. Temp fell from 30 to the day's low (and tomorrow's cheap high) of 22 between 7:45 and 9 PM, as winds got stronger, with gusts into the 30s. Had to shake off the lilac branches, and toss one that broke, in order to access the thermometer. Upstream radar would seem to indicate that the heavy stuff has only a few hours left, though the back edge isn't advancing all that quickly.

Ginx snewx Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Finally getting into some good dendrites the last 2 hours or so. Ripping out there for quite awhile now. Hard to measure with the wind, but 4 measurements average 12.5" as of 9:30pm. We'd have 18" by now if it were not for the poor show growth all afternoon.Yea that sucks,geezus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Flash freeze in effect here, 28.2F and raining lightly, everything starting to glaze over. 0.31" in the gauge before temps dropped below freezing. If it gives you any idea how quickly it's cooling off, I had to adjust that temp number three times whilst typing this. Dropped a degree in about a minute. Just crazy.

weatherMA Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Ashland NH is dropping. Dendrite here I come. Went from 35 to 26 in about an hour here, now we just need some precip. 4.7" storm total, .44 LE snow and .45LE of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Congrats man, This one was yours up there Thanks. I'm no longer at the bottom of the Maineiacs posting on the snow table - might even jump into 2nd of the 5, pending what Eric measures. However, 18-24 is out of play here, IMO. 12-15 is probably a better guess unless we get all of the 2-4" after sunrise that GYX discussed. Great storm, though, with all the wind, about 5 hr of SN+, now the temp plunge - nothing to complain about! Lights have blinked a few times, so it's probably about time to sign off and get some rest for tomorrow's cleanup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdgraves Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Temps falling like a rock here, Down -3.6F/hr, Going over to more SN with some IP mixed in now Hope this is on the way for Portland.

powderfreak Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 Yea that sucks,geezus lol it was just an observation. Plenty of folks comment in all winter storms on flake size and snow growth. Hopefully we can get up to double digits here, we should in this wrap around tonight. The Champlain Valley and western slopes are going to get crushed.

ono Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 lol it was just an observation. Plenty of folks comment in all winter storms on flake size and snow growth. Hopefully we can get up to double digits here, we should in this wrap around tonight. The Champlain Valley and western slopes are going to get crushed. Where are you now? I'm sitting around 9-11" with lots of drifting. Wondering when J. Spin will chime in with his definitive reporting. Went around the yard a bit, leaning toward the 9" end for an average about 45 mins ago- who knows now as snow growth has been improving and it's cranking. My car has almost zero snow on it now- where there was 5" around 7pm. Wind blasted. The total depth in the yard here, sheltered, is a healthy 24" all around.
