moneypitmike Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Actually a slight coating on the wood platform on top of the kids slide, almost looks like graupel. You have more than I this young season. I didn't bother trying to measure the coating we had last week (?), and the change to ip/zr before I woke yesterday compacted whatever snow had fallen (per Lurker and Chris). So, I'm reporting a 0.0 on Kevin-in-MA's snow table. 26.9/18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 No doubt about that--it's nothing close to an apples-to-apples comparison. My one time in LES was about 10 years ago. I had to stay overnight in Jamestown, NY for a meeting at St. Bonaventure. It was nothing like they're having now of course, but it was still pretty awesome. Also, a real bummer when you left the band and the sun came out. Temp continuing to drop. 27.2/18 It's a pretty cool phenomenon, especially with how stable they can be. I mean this current band is pegged just south of BUF. Downtown is probably watching a few flurries drift by, while southern burbs are buried. I toyed around with LES quite a bit at ITH, but it's really no match there even. They do well off multi-band NW flow set ups, but they can't really pile on the snow like these single bands.

mob1 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 32.4 with a couple flurries flying around.Wow, it's 29 at NYC, I think you'll dip below freezing soon and stay there for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 OT but I found a 2 by 4 when I was raking Sunday and saved it as a potential snow board. I found a meter stick with it and thought....gee....is this long enough for whats coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Does anyone know what the highest totals have been areas on the Cape have experienced in OES? Obviously a really far cry from LES. A lot of our OES events are more like ocean enhanced. For instance a coastal front dividing maritime air from truly polar air. Feb 94 was like that with over 2' in spots, helped by some synoptics too.Feb '93 on the Cape gave 2' to Chatham, but again that was an inv trough aided by OE snow.

I read the original question as CAPE not the Cape. Maybe we do need to spell it out Cape Cod, MA, USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guidance has weakened but it was slightly more robust yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 a 2 by 10 by 30" LOL. Per the question about Kevin's 1-2", I think he was suggesting that for tomorrow night. The odds of that were low when he said t. I put them in he toilet now. Maybe a dusting. OT--stoves are doing a great job.

weathafella Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Food for thought. In the big winters, les events in November happened. Referring to the 1960s and 70s. We seem to be in that mode lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 How were the November LES in the crappy winters? Crappy winters then weren't as crappy as the ones today but typically a mild snowless November even in areas where somewhat robust snow in November is the norm.

ORH_wxman Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I was in BUF right after the Dec 2001 LES event...pretty epic. Back to New England weather, Ensembles still show a shot at a couple systems for just before T-day and just after...still way too far out to say much else. By the end of the run, the ensembles are trying to rebuild heights N of AK after they lower them for a time...so it looks like no real pattern locking in but perhaps more potential into early December if that rising of heights is more permanent.

ORH_wxman Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 That one def has some legs and it's got good ens support. pretty real shot it happens The ensemble support is tepid...I would not say it has "good" ensemble support. Tepid ensemble support at 200 hours out is a pretty precarious line of evidence to conclude it has a good shot at happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 yeah but what are the chances of snow is cold rain especially in the valleys?I haven't had a chance to look at all the modeling and I'm on the road now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 So it looks to me we average well below normal from now though months end. The first week in December may be much milder before we start rocking winter say in the 12/10-18 period. A huge winter is on the doorstep friends.
