CoastalWx Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Can you get sleet with a warm tongue above 700mb. Isn't that going to be above the cloud layer where the snow crystals are growing in? If there is moisture aloft and falling through it, it melts into droplets. If it's dry above it, obviously it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 The main lift looks to be between 700-500mb. Looks to be that way from this vantage point. http://coolwx.com/cgi-bin/getbufr.cgi?region=CT&stn=KBDL&model=nam&time=current&field=omeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physical Met was not my strongest class so hence the question. Kind of need a refresher. Probably should look through the old notebook again.

powderfreak Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I think Powderfreak must be suddenly emerging from some ski shop in Stowe with a grin on his face. Lol for a quarter inch of QPF on the NAM? The track didn't change from other guidance, it just got moist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Most of the lift is actually east of the low with TREMENDOUS warm air advection. That changes as it tries to close off on SNE for peeps further north. Don't obsess about the H7 low. I saw that. It doesn't look like a classic type of setup. Almost seems like best lift modeled is under h7 or just west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Your referencing the H7 low in beginning of that comment right. Oh yes, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Worcester County gets croaked running northeast from there. Everyone run to HubbDave's house for the jackpot. Just stop. lol You are going to end up getting croaked under E Slope deform band. Just off the elbow track maybe what is coming and that bodes well for the interior SW/CW NE folks. W CT up through us and Dendrite look primed right now. Break out the shovels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR Airglow Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 When do the GGEM and UK come out? GGEM around 1115-1130, UKIE used to be around 1045 but now we have to wait for Meteocentre which is around 1145-midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Lol for a quarter inch of QPF on the NAM? The track didn't change from other guidance, it just got moist. My bad.

powderfreak Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Man that is just cruel, lol. What a toaster bath from BTV to CAR/FVE to the delight of thousands of other New England weenies haha. Weenies smirking and evilly rubbing hands together, hehehe that'll teach the NW areas to snow while we enjoy partly cloudy skies on northwest winds.

N. OF PIKE Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 meso's don't really seem to have a CF do they? unless it's over Cape cod. would think snow amounts would be more uniform from outside 495 to inside 128 nearer to the coast....given super omega thump and N /NNE winds. ..maybe elevations are 30 instead of 33 so they accumulate easier?
