There's zero snow and 1/2 " of salt on the roads. "Use it or lose it" budget planning. Lol. Sounds about right. Dusting here. So far winds are like any major nor'easter running about 25 gusting to near 40. Hoping to see that increase. Nam brings the band over ack all the way into Plymouth county by 10am. Radar is dying west of about mid cape for the moment and the death band over ack has another one spiraling at it. Either that will be the big shove northwest or it won't Hrrr rap nam all push the band back this way with 4-8". Looks like it either happens and we get 7-8" or it doesn't make it and we smoke subsidence and get 2" blown into the woods.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 75 miles from boston. First band has faded as the next one spirals up. Band has made it as far west as mid cape and still appears to be pushing west. Still just light snow and blowing snow here. Maybe a 1/4".

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 First band got smudged as the second one rockets nw. First one got lighter and more spread out and intensity varies.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Radar isn't impressive. First band got ate by second band which is finally back to ack. Some really diminished returns on the cape at 8am per super res. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Should have added despite a modes radar it's awful out. Visibility is really low as the snow is blowing substantially. It's weird it's not snowing all that hard but it looks like about 1/4 mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
