Stash Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I'm working down in Albany today. Currently light rain, with a few mangled flakes mixing in during heavier bursts. Is it snowing in Albany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stash Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 What a rotten day down here though. I should have stayed home. Maybe 33, I'm not too far from the UAlbany campus. Nope. Ho flakes yet. Could be a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Good to hear from other posters that there are some flakes mixed in. That suggest that the column is not irrecoverable. I haven't seen any flakes in Clifton Park, but maybe I missed the heavier bursts. Freezing rain well north and west of the capital district. But I still think it's flippable in the heaviest precip.

ORH_wxman Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Where in the interior...SNE or NNE? Mostly VT and western MA and NW CT litchfield county...though perhaps C NH down to C MA gets some accumulations as well. I also wouldn't use the word "crush"...its probably like 3-5 inches, though the western slopes probably would get more with the enhanced flow.

Wow that's a huge change for here, gets the low near PWM then north of us. That could be more than I'm expecting for tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 ULL can suprise and dissapoint at the same time. We just have to nowcast this sucker. Even mesoscale guidance tend to not pinpoint the best areas accurately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whineminster Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 ULL can suprise and dissapoint at the same time. We just have to nowcast this sucker. Even mesoscale guidance tend to not pinpoint the best areas accurately. So what is the difference between nowcasting and just reporting what's happening? They more-or-less appear to be one in the same to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolMike Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Per BTV P&C: Wednesday: Rain and sleet, becoming all sleet after 9am. High near 33. North wind around 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New sleet accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible. I don't recall ever seeing 2-4 inches of sleet accumulation in a forecast. This would be interesting to see.

They more-or-less appear to be one in the same to me Nowcasting is sort of slang for very short term forecasting...like a few hours in advance based on changing obversations upstream.

apm Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Could we have gotten this much precip on the CP in the form of snow? It would have been incredible. I know we've mentioned the high slipping away before the storm arrived, but would it have precipitated this much if it hadn't? This is crazy.

CT Valley Snowman Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 thanks Kevin, I'm highly suspect of any accumulations outside of the Berks, Litchfield Hills and perhaps a coating in your area. but it would only be fitting for the back side to over perform after the relatively miserable front side of the storm for most people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
