January 26-28 Blizzard Observations/Nowcast

Seems like I am a very good spot for good totals. However am vary about that uber band collapsing SE of me faster than many expect.

[40/70 Benchmark]

15F 6.5"

13.4/11

8.5"

[TalcottWx]

78mph gust ACK

[Hoth]

It should... Which is intriguing

Very. I'm more and more psyched. "Subsidence," quote unquote, appears to be filling on radar, though it was never that light. Can't wait to see what happens later.

[Quincy]

Up to 13.8" now. 1.8" last 30 minutes, 3.0" last hour. Time to take a nap!

He says as he lowers the toaster towards the tub.

car is running in a garage just in case.

[TalcottWx]

I'm once again too Far East for the Death Band but it is coming back so not much time out of it?

Not heavy there? One RI guy said snowing heavier then radar suggested. 

[Dotb]

Has to be some thunder in that stuff about to head into the Vineyard, no? 

[codfishsnowman]

Cruel, so close but so far...... mother of god who did I piss off to deserve this. maybe 4 inches

LOL, I think it's the band reorienting east a bit. 

 

78mph gust ACK

 

This next 3-6 hours may be some of the most intense snows we've seen in EMA/RI.  WV continues to blossom as this stuff pivots up over us.  I mean - there's legit 30-40dbz in this blossoming area.

[40/70 Benchmark]

91 Points west is dead. Hours and hours of light to occasionaly moderate in about 30 minutes. Band is collapsing and the firehouse is pointed at Eastern New England Congrats.

These things always tic ene......but folks just couldn't stop deep throating the euro

Impressive banding coming in from our NE now. Not that it even matters because looking outside I would guess we were under 35dbz

[Quincy]

An epic win for the RGEM. It really pegged northeast Connecticut into interior eastern Mass. for the death band and wow, it's verifying extremely well. One of the few consistent models over the past 24-36 hours.

[TalcottWx]

BOS area peeps.. You can actually make out a band trying to form as we speak.. One NE of the city over the ocean and another reaching towards it near RI.. They will likely meet eventually and make sweat dendritic love to the hancock building

[Arnold214]

My folks on the eastern end of LI are smack dab under this absolutely disgusting band right now. Gonna be curious to see their pics in the am. Will be epic for sure.

[LedZep]

I don't

Neither do I.  Not a fan of his, his repeated actions regarding his personal issues with the NYPD solidified that.

Well...there was the year they ticked west.  The one where every one of Typhoon's posts were 17 paragraphs.

 

I'm pretty psyched.  I feel bad for those to the west and southwest, but it's been awhile here.  Happy for Sir James too.

 

Hole crap is this stuff nutty moving up.   House now is just non stop shaking, I'm guessing 50 sustained right on the water??

[Hoth]

Also love that it's going to be raging in daylight in a few hours. Haven't seen that in a while.

This is special

 

Blizzy is gonna be a bit to far West, as you look at upton loop the band is about to weaken on Mt. tolland unfortunately

Yup. Absolutely can see that. 

A small part of me is grumpy because my forecast for western CT(12-24") is going up in flames, but who cares this is awesome.

[walthsnow]

Drifts are starting to build here. Almost to the top of the guard rail on my street. Wicked blowing snow. Street a carpet of fluffy white. Cannot believe how much this is rocking! Happy for all that are within these snow bands in ESNE.

Not perfect but I was telling Ray that in the two previous fails of the Euro (last Marchish)...RGEM took it to town both times.   We'll see, may be that with these Miller B's NCEP/HPC can no longer summarily dismiss the CMC like they did the last two days for no apparent technical reason.

Some yellows in that band too. This is just going to crush us.

Look at OKX down over LI..It's actually expanding west..though I agree I'm not going to jack

Boxing day.

 

I'm talking about the capture deals....especially considering we're in a weak el Nino, to me that screamed east.

Yep. Tightening up real nice. This is gonna be awesome

[RIcoastalWX]

18.7/15 - Moderate to Heavy Snow… and SLEET!  

 

Woke up about 10 minutes ago to the sound of sleet hitting the window.  

 

Over 10" - lots of blowing and drifting though… tough to tell exactly how much.

[TalcottWx]

Look at the way that atlantic inflow is meeting the colder air dragging down from maine and spilling over along a convergence zone and the cf... fooking beautiful... there wont be much subsidence I think soon anywhere east of ORH is about to go through an EPIC time period. Don't go to bed folks.

RGEM is a very good model, though it can be amped near the periphery of its range.

I'm not, going to try to make it all the way through the morning I think. Banking on classes to get cancelled Wednesday as a catchup on sleep day.
