40/70 Benchmark 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. No. Would have been like an 1" of qpf probably.

Logan11 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I wouldn't be surprised if that really heavy band over the Berkshires has flipped them to snow along the spine. Peter is not home now, but no doubt he will report it. Peru is 32 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick-02540 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I don't see any snow on the Euro from I-91 points east.I was thinking route 8 points east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I wouldn't be surprised if the western hills of CT and adjacent Taconics in NY up through the Berkshires squeezed out a couple inches of snow tomorrow, tomorrow night and Thursday.

CT Rain Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Thursday is sort of interesting on the NAM. Nice snow growth, some low level instability, and a pretty deep layer of RH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icebreaker5221 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Not sure if this was mentioned yet, but 18Z RGEM increased snowfall quite a bit in E NY, VT, and W MA in places that got heavy sleet on the 12Z run and/or dryslotted further east. Could be picking up better on recent trends wrt deformation band setting up over the Hudson Valley than some of the other short-term models. 12Z: 18Z: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Pushing 4 inches of paste here now. 32 and pretty heavy now. This has been maybe 7-1 snow, though nicer flakes now as the intensity has cooled the column better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 BTV just edited snow totals: http://www.weather.gov/btv/stormtotalsnowI don't know what it has done down in Montpelier since I left work at 4:30 but here at home in Barre Town it has been absolutely pouring snow.

Randy4Confluence Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 So what's the thinking regarding the affects of the ULL on Thursday for Eastern Mass? Seems that we'll be cold enough in the mid levels, but the surface seem to be too warm for some flakes based on the wind direction. I hope I'm wrong.

eduggs Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Raining again in ALB. Waterlogged concrete coating quickly melting. Sidewalk slush puddles and water pouring from melting trees. Spoils the evening snow walk. Up a few hundred feet probably has a solid covering. The hills west of town must have gotten a good hit. Might be a few spots that reach double digit snowfall.

ORH_wxman Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 The soundings start to support snow over most of interior SNE by later this afternoon and especially evening...but I actually think the best shot at some accumulations is tomorrow. As we get some of that vort energy rotating around, the soundings become pretty nice looking...we even have a saturated isothermal layer from about 850mb to 700mb near -10C to -12C...that is going to produce really nice dendrites in any bursts of snow. I don't think we'll see an organized precip shield...but scattered bursts and patches of SN- could produce some light accumulations. The wind direction calls for some enhancement on the west slopes of course.,,so that would be the best area to get anything over an inch or two...but the rest of the region can try their luck. The low level lapse rates become decently steep as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could also see some "sound ehancement" or even "sound effect" snow with a SW flow in the boundary layer and a decent delta T from the inversion to the Sound temp.
