silly question, but I just checked the WaWa web cam, and expected to see all the trees caked in snow...kinda like the pics ginxy posted...but there is barely any snow on the trees, looks like it would if the temp had gotten up to 34...i find that weird

Maybe the strong winds blew the snow out of the trees.  That's what happened here.  The higher elevations had some impressive gusts yesterday.

no way would I call this a bust at all,don't know what Bob ended up with but not a bustpost-33-0-27898200-1424554586.png

That's a snow algorithm. For the melted qpf as snow it had me nearly 0.5 inch. Not even remotely close not only to that but overall qpf. A lot of local forecasts adjusted due to RGEM busted badly.

Enjoy it.  You can tune up your lawn mower and make sure your spreader is in shape for the first Lesco treatment.

 

Nice one out there.

 

29.6/26

Thankfully it held off till almost noon so not much damage will be done to the pack. 

 

My lawnmower is buried and will be until April this year with no warm ups except in Tips head in sight

You leave your lawnmower outside?

 

You'll have your grass no later than the equinox.  Probably before St. Patrick's Day.

The best way to describe the RGEM in this event was "good in CT, cruddy elsewhere"...if you live in CT, then you thought it did well, if you lived in MA/NH/VT/ME/E NY you thought it was bad. It wasn't an epic bust on a regional scale...but it doesn't get any high marks this storm like it did in the blizzard and the Feb 2nd event or Jan 24th event.

no model had your micro climate snow

 

Yes but it wasn't right elsewhere either in BTV's CWA...like eastern VT poster Allenson had over 6" where the RGEM has a minimum.  The NAM yesterday actually did the best with highlighting the meso-scale spots.  The RGEM likes to put the jack in the Champlain Valley for whatever reason...its done that a lot this season.  It doesn't seem to handle the meso-scale as well as it should up here, or at least compared to the EURO/GFS/NAM.  I'm not sure what causes it in that model.  Most other models downsloped the BTV area on SSW flow, and that was the right play.

 

But seems there are enough folks outside of CT that agreed the RGEM didn't really "win" this event.

Even in CT...it really only did well for about 2/3 of the state. Most of Middlesex and New London counties fell short of the 6" spit out by the rgem...generally 2-4" fell.
