Yeah their thermo has probably gone haywire...hopefully they will fix it soon. It happend to the AFN ASOS thermometer a couple years back.

 

I asked BOX and they say it looks OK. BAF and CEF are also running a bit milder for whatever reason than HFD. Maybe somewhat deeper mixing at BDL with a bit of downsloping compared to HFD?

if someone can help me out, my favorite storm to this day was not Nemo or 1993 or 1996 or the Presidents Day storm or 2001 or any other big ticket nor'easter that most people are familiar with. it was a storm sometime in the early 2000's I believe. here the NWS was projecting 6 to 10 inches of snow but a death band set up right over the Pioneer Valley and far northern Connecticut and I ended up receiving 25 inches of snow in Springfield in about 12 hours. it was one of the most amazing deformation bands I've ever seen up this way. the death band in NEMO was a little bit too far to my south.

That's what I get for interpolating between BOS and PVD, instead of looking it up.  ;)

 

 

They'll usually get more than BOS/PVD...they are around 250-300 feet elevation in Foxboro (there's even a few weenie 400 foot hills there) and in a less marine-influenced environment.

Did you mention to BOX the drift that BDL has had on MADIS since spring?

 

 

I mean, it's not horrific, but it's there. Even at this hour, BAF is 34F, CEF is 33F, HFD is 32F while BDL is 35F...that's kind of what you would expect given a 1-2F drift. Any given reading can be defended and you probably wouldn't notice too much just casually observing it, but it's going to almost always be running the warmest versus just sometimes by chance due to mesoscale effects.

 

 

At any rate, it will be interesting to track going into winter. See if it maintains the warmer readings.

 

If I recall correctly, AFN got pretty out of whack before it was fixed...but its drift occurred more rapidly.

It did not. 5" of QPF with these ratios would've resulted in much higher totals.

 

I think that value is a lot closer than you are making it out to be.  I honestly feel that someone got 80" yesterday but it could never be measured accurately before compacting.  Therefore if you started the event near 15:1 and ended the event around 25:1 you are very close to 5 inches of liquid.  Pretty damn impressive model.

any eye candy on today's euro ? haven't had a chance to look yet

Not really, basically cold through Saturday, then warm Sunday-Tuesday with a cutter, then cools off for Thurs-Fri with another cutter coming at the end of the run and warm temps again. That D9-10 storm is all over the map on guidance, think there's a decent signal for an event in the period but what it ends up being is anyones guess. Not sure I favor a cutter though.
