mahk_webstah Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 seems to be the band from maine coast to central nh and the one thr n mass and extreme snh. the more southern one is stronger but will the one up here continue? Still elements moving north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick-02540 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I got up at 3:30 to pee and looked at the radar. Loaded the wood stove and cracked a beer for you guys. Bring it on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I think I need a couple hours of sleep. The wind is slowly beginning to pick up. 16.7F -SN OCNL SN 12.6" new snow 1.1" past hour Intensity has let up a bit and compaction is starting to do its dirty work. We'll see what those bands pivoting north deliver. Canterbury RWIS is still cranking the M1/4SM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthieWX Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0065 NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 0317 AM CST SUN FEB 15 2015 AREAS AFFECTED...MA/SRN NH/NERN CT/RI CONCERNING...HEAVY SNOW VALID 150917Z - 151515Z SUMMARY...SNOWFALL RATES OF 1 TO 3 INCHES PER HOUR CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE DISCUSSION AREA -- AS A SNOW BAND NOW OVER THE NRN MA/SRN NH VICINITY TRANSLATES SWD OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. DISCUSSION...LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS A BAND OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW OVER NERN MA AND ADJACENT SRN NH ATTM...WITHIN A WARM ADVECTION/DEFORMATION ZONE ON THE NRN FRINGE OF LOWER TROPOSPHERIC /H85-H7/ LOW NOW MOVING OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST. THIS BAND IS FAIRLY WELL-DEPICTED BY HIGH-RES MODELS AND SREF PROBABILISTIC DATA...EACH OF WHICH PROJECT THAT THIS BAND WILL NOT REMAIN IN PLACE BUT TRANSLATE SWD ACROSS MA AND EVENTUALLY INTO PARTS OF CT AND RI OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. THIS LACK OF A MORE STATIONARY HEAVY SNOW EVENT ALSO MAKES SENSE GIVEN THE PROGRESSIVE/TRANSITORY NATURE OF THE SYSTEM ALOFT -- WHICH IS EXPECTED TO SHIFT NEWD AND THEN NNEWD TOWARD THE CANADIAN MARITIMES THROUGH THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON. BASED ON THESE FACTORS...IT APPEARS UNLIKELY THAT THE HEAVIEST PORTION OF THE SNOW BAND WILL REMAIN OVER A GIVEN AREA FOR MORE THAN BUT 2-3 HOURS...THUS LIMITING OVERALL SNOWFALL IN ANY ONE LOCALE. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE HIGH SNOWFALL RATES...4-8 INCHES OF SNOW WILL LIKELY FALL ACROSS MUCH OF THE DISCUSSION AREA THROUGH THIS MORNING. ..GOSS/MOSIER/CORFIDI.. 02/15/2015 ATTN...WFO...GYX...BOX...OKX...ALY...

dendrite Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The snow is meh right now and I'm due for a core in an hour so I just did it now before the wind blows it away. Insane ratios. In this core I had 7.6" snow with only 0.21" liquid. That's like 35:1...crazy for a sample that size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
