jamesnichols89 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Official snow measurement came to be 5.5", not 6", 6" was eyeballing it. Heavy snow since 5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Yeah, people should look at a model before melting down. I do and the only one giving me 16+++ is euro. Everything else is east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thank God because it's really pretty sucky at this point. Breezy though. Measurements will be tough to come by. Part of what is making it seem that way is the putrid snow growth. Basically baking powder flakes. I just walked the dog and when your standing under a street light or in the dark with a flashlight it's coming down pretty good but it's micro-flakes mixing with some larger dendrites. We are just getting going but I need to catch some sleep soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Will You have any guesses as to what timing the 5H low will close will be...(when did euro fully close 5H on 12z?) Seems the 12z Euro today almost closed it sooner.....but didn't fully close to later? and perhaps that is why deform wasn't as impressive over NE NJ/NYC SE NY? at it's prior runs I think the more Amped Euro Runs closed 5H over Delaware They close it around 09z...its the location more than anything...the further east closing off and capture is what makes all the difference for those on the edge. But for a lot of SNE, it isn't a huge deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 With that said...I havent melted, yet. Just concerned. Would of loved to seen the rgem tick west but thats not looking likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N. OF PIKE Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 They close it around 09z...its the location more than anything...the further east closing off and capture is what makes all the difference for those on the edge. But for a lot of SNE, it isn't a huge deal. I heard some mention the 12z euro "shoved" great dynamics and Energy into SNE , and was the reason for the 1"+ qpf between 6z and 12z .....i'm trying to understand what caused that shift....was it separate from the further east/later close?

But for a lot of SNE, it isn't a huge deal. I'm a "little" worried Will. I think this one may escape far enough NE now that tomorrow isn't the snowmageddon of OES I was hoping for. I can't just toss the RGEM like NCEP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 14F/-7F OVC NE 10G15mph Good luck measuring guys.
