CT Rain Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Maybe, but I doth have a hard time believing in widespread 50-60" totals. Yeah I'll take the under on that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthCoastMA Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 With those amounts you'd think it would've been documented as a 3 day storm. i.e 4/1-4/3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The storm on the 9th isn't looking pretty. It looks like nice CAD but cold rain.I know it's 7 days out or so...but retreating high and lousy airmass....it would have to change significantly I think for us to see anything other than rain. We'll see I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Maybe, but I doth have a hard time believing in widespread 50-60" totals. I heard about that storm on VPR this morning...they had the same snowfall values and said numerous journals from farmers reported drifts of 8-10 feet and 4-5 feet of snowfall on the level. Its bound to happen sometime...I've always thought there would be a system that sort of takes Valentine's Day 2007 (which had widespread 27-40" totals) and stalls it. At least VT is in a decent spot to have something massive cut off in the Maritimes or FVE and just spin for a couple days. The radio said that event back in 1807 was a 3-day ordeal in VT, but again you are going by farmers' journals and stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it stalls, then maybe the upslope flow areas above 2k could see those amounts...but this time of year...a storm stalls and brings in recycled mild air relatively quickly. I'm not saying it's impossible...but I think questioning how and if it's possible is certainly valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Well Pete B has rain and 64 for next Tuesday. I'll take the under, but there is a chance he may not be off by 35 degrees like he was for Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Yeah I'll take the under on that oneNo way to prove either way, anyone could just as easy say well if they measured every six hours it would be 65. IDK but neither do you so we have to go by reports. Very uniform mismeasurements though. We saw 40s just last Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Miser Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 you and I were in a screw zone, many had lots of snow all around us,it happens. Definitely sucked, but I will probably win my bet as my part of the state did not receive 3" as I said would be the case back at the beginning of March.

CoastalWx Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 So it does appear that's it then..despite the comments this morning about a few more chances. All left for us to track now is when will the forsythia bloom? What comments? The ones about what a model shows 8 days out? My comment was basically in the same category. It could change, but for now it's not the best look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather.St Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I am seeing nothing more than a Chilly rain in SNE. Maybe a small shot of snow in Higher elevations, but even that might not make a "splash" :/ Don't think this pattern is one that favors snow at this point.

dryslot Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Its over, It was a good late run for winter up here in march, Time to turn the page and move onto spring, Hopefully we can melt off the remaining pack slowly with some warmer temps to lesson the flooding possibilities and get on with springtime activities as we move into the next few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it's impossible...but I think questioning how and if it's possible is certainly valid. Certainly...just interesting that the values are all uniformly high. Rather than just one small geographic area. Makes me wonder what the upper bounds of a 1 in 200 year snowstorm would be around New England. Probably a topic for another thread.

Was a good finish after a frustrating mid-winter period, snowfall wise. Temp wise, it's been a long winter since early November...and we should have seen it coming. MVL here had it's first sub-zero November readings since 1989 and then capped off the winter with 16 sub-zero readings in March and a record cold month. I wonder how long till we are completely snow-free, snowbank piles and all. Haven't truly seen the grass since November 23rd...though came close in January when there was 1-2" of solid ice in the yard with standing water on top.

Yeah, After a rough go early on for you guys up their, You recovered nicely, Its going to be a while here to go snow free and ice free, 1st time ever in history, The State Inland Fisheries and Wildlife is allowing ice fishing to continue into april as typically, 3/31 ends the ice fishing season and 4/1 starts the open water season, The lakes and ponds still have 3-4' of ice on them here locally with the shoreline not even opening up as of yet, There may be some records set for the latest ice out this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Global_Warmer Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Maybe, but I doth have a hard time believing in widespread 50-60" totals. Totally different climate then during the Maunder Min. NA in the 35-45N range was probably 4-5C colder overall in March and April then. I can't imagine the kind of incredibly moisture laden storms riding along late season arctic blasts that would be way colder than now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
