November II Discussion

Nice.

 

November is month of the picnic tables. Rest of us rarely get good snows in November, but get some good fresh arctic airmasses and the upslope/rotting LES magic tends to work its wonders there.

 

Yeah it definitely is...bookend season.  Oct/Nov...April...both picnic table seasons, lol.

Just looking at snow data...Mansfield's biggest discrepency between ORH and them comes in November. That's a good month up there. February only averages a little bit more than November on the picnic tables. (31 vs 37 inches) At ORH, it's like 17 vs 3 inches, lol.

25/10.  Low of 17F.  Was hoping to go lower but wind and all. 

 

You were right, good sir.  Beat me again.

 

for the Pioneer Valley area near the north eastern corner of Springfield where I lived at the time it was pretty much benchmark event. Feb 5 2001. even the Blizzard of 78 that area only had about 18 or 19 inches.

 

I don't recall the exact amount, but I was living in Westfield and I think it was 23" in 9 hours.

 

No eye candy on the euro op. More like a male Brit with bad teeth.

 

LOL

 

we have a winner, total wood

 

That's totally ludicrous speed.

 

25.3/3

I wondered how much of that settled today?   Can't imagine what another 20-40" is going to look like by late tomorrow.  We should see some epic snowfall pictures.   I have only seen snow like this once and that is when I was staying up in the Lake Tahoe area of California.  Surprised we have not heard more about structure failures.

I think that's coming soon... building departments worst nightmare right there.

Some of the pics in this event were reminding me of what it looks like out there right after you get dumped with like 6 feet of snow. I went on many trips there out there in the 1990s and early 2000s (my aunt lived there)...there's a reason all the roofs there are steep and metal...lol. I'd be doing a lot of shoveling off the roof if I was one of those houses in Elma or Cheektowaga.

Just to make a path to get around the house to get to the roof would exhaust most people.  I know how much work it is to take 18" off my roof with a roof rake.  Then of course most people don't have them, can't get to the store where they would be sold out so you got to take your chances.  Another 2 or 3 feet on top of this I would think would cause some real structure problems.

Surreal photographs and videos. Part II should ensure the unfortunate floods and no bare ground till around March. 4-5' of snow will not melt that fast as some jealous poster would have one think.  

I agree.  No way 6 feet, and two more feet coming melts in a couple days!!  NO WAY!!!  There will be flooding, but it isn't all going to melt completely.

Nice photos but it's really localized... You can drive 10 minutes ...well, if snowy roads permitted, and you'd be down to almost nothing.  I grew up for a while in Kalamazoo Michigan, and I can remember seeing dark gray wall to the SW, and bright white walls in the NE horizons, as the LE bands typically split around the city.  We'd be getting nothing; inside those bands were over a foot.  

 

The photos for me are not as epic as they may be for some, because these things are so tiny, with major impact for very few compared to regional scales.
