Ginx snewx Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 It's snowing out up this way...BTV at 1.5sm -SN now, too. Not sticking on the wet ground yet but nice to see again. This is the time of year when you never know if it'll be another 6 months till you see flakes again.saw pics of accumulating snow up there,could be a surprise amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 And we're down into the 30's. 39.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 21z RPM was still giving 2-4" to a pretty large part of SNE....it will be interesting to watch. The NW downslope is really tough to fight if you do not have a deep ULL....but the mid-level frontogenesis will try and do its best to offset that.

CT Rain Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 DPW will be caught with undies down as no media or nws mention of accumulating snow to valleys Except there was. Slushy accumulation and black ice in the forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 saw pics of accumulating snow up there,could be a surprise amountChillin' with Tim Kelley, watching it snow. He just rolled into town...has good timing, heady toppers and snow haha.I'm not sure what a surprise amount may be, but the NWS has had 4-5" on the mountain and I've got 2-4"...I still think it'll be hard to get over 4-5" even at the summits judging by the remaining precip.

And through the next several hours? If it's as strong as it had been today that will work some wonders. 2-4" widespread maybe a stretch but perhaps Berks into high elevations of Litchfield can squeeze that iut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Except there was. Slushy accumulation and black ice in the forecast. When public sees slushy accumulation that to them means nothing. When the valley wakes up to 1-2 with more in the hills..trust me..the dung will hit the fan tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmanmitch Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Sleet/snow mix here. Snow is being generated in the low levels as the flakes are fine. Mid-levels are still a bit warm as we're getting sleet from the mid-level precip. 31° F. Everything starting to freeze up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 There's a nice area along the mid-level trough...mesoanalysis page shows it well Thanks for posting that...on mobile so that's why I asked. That's very good to see though, right along the mid-level trough. There should be a nice swath somewhere...probably north and west. Assuming some pretty strong Mlvl dynamics associated with that as well which could help really cool down the mid-levels.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 don't know what you are looking at but ok Give me a number then? What do you think? It's coming down but there's about a half inch or so, no more than that so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Radar definitely "looks" pretty healthy....however the caveat right now is underneath most of the precip behind the front, the ground obs are light and ceilings aren't that low. It tells me that low level dry air is really fighting the mid-level precip generation Though the ML fronto will try to strengthen a bit as a wave develops along the front....we'll just have to see if it is enough to spit out some S+...I'm still a bit skeptical of more than a C-1" type deal...at least outside of the highest spots in Berks/Monads/etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Right now Ginxy...I'm just saying I think more than 2-4" with 5" at the upper elevations may be hard to beat, but maybe I'm wrong. Hopefully it rips 1"+ per hour for the next couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
