Hitman Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 0f here. Beautiful out. Postmortem on the storm, it ain't over till it's over. That's two storms a year apart almost to the day that the euro and the globals have pretty much **** the bed on the sensible weather details. And I got fringed at home again. About 12" down there. Hudson valley snow hole. I realize being "due" isn't a scientific assessment, but at some point the law of averages has to kick in and interior eastern ny and western ne has to cash in. So we go that going for us, which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 You and me both! Getting some light Champlain Effect snow this morning. Yeah it's crystal clear everywhere but looking into the CPV from Mansfield you see low clouds probably 2-3,000ft elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backedgeapproaching Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Well, been pretty epic down here in SEPA. 28". Now have to head back to reality to the land of pennies and nickels and endless string of 1.1" snowfalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've gone to my sisters in NYC West Side if it wasn't for the weekend. In the Ski Industry you cant get weekends off from Nov-Apr haha.

wxeyeNH Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Nice Sat. view of the storm we missed. You can clearly see the older snow in C/NNE. Almost no snow in Western Mass. Modles did really well with predicting the northern extent of the storm. Snow line seems to be right about where models were keying in days before. Beautiful clear day, light winds. The lower bay of Newfound has frozen over to the point there are lots of people out ice fishing today. Like to take the drone and fly it over them across the bay. Knowing what people think about drones I'm sure one of the locals would have no problem shooting it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Warming up fast.... 4,000ft is at 28F now. But MVL is still in the teens at 750ft after a low of -9F. Steep inversion for 12pm. But temps up top have risen almost 20-degrees in like the past two hours which is really weird for that elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, never thought I would move to VT and then the next year have to chase in PA. Still time for a bomb in CNE/NNE, hopefully.Might be a while before I get back to VT. 3 days and no plow in sight.

adk Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Pretty strong little line of snow moving through BTV right now. Be curious what this does over the next 2-3 hours. Models aren't picking it up well. At lest a .5" down in the last 45 min here in SOBTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll settle for just one, yes just one warning level snowfall at this point. On a side note tonight we picked up a surprise 0.5-0.75" of fluff.

mreaves Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Got a little bit of that snow here too. Just when I was grumbling about even missing out on these little, under the radar skiffs of snow, I happened to glance out and see the cars were covered. Winter lives in northern Vermont!

J.Spin Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Event totals: 0.5” Snow/0.04” L.E. I noticed that the temperature was up near 20 F around midnight, and I was curious if it was just because it was cloudy, or if there was something else going on. It turned out to be snowing, and it was pretty much unexpected as others on here noted. The BTV NWS says it was due to a weak upper level disturbance. Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.5 inches New Liquid: 0.04 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 12.5 Snow Density: 8.0% H2O Temperature: 14.2 F Sky: Flurries Snow at the stake: 7.5 inches It looks like a couple of additional systems are expected to affect the area this week, with one in the Tuesday/Wednesday timeframe, and another Thursday/Friday with additional snow showers over the weekend. Models are also showing potential activity at the beginning of next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTV has actually had 3 of its top 4 snowstorms in the past 9 years--2007,2010,2011-so relatively recent. Most recent bigger one is 18" in march 2014. ALY on the other hand has not had a top 20 snowstorm in the past 13 years,let alone top 10. There have been a few bigger ones that have been more elevation dependent since then, but the airport and lower elevations no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Gotta snow sometime, haha. At the mountain we are still 150" away from just hitting the LOWEST winter snow total I've ever experienced up here since 2003. Only 240" more to go to get to average snow for the season with about 13 weeks left...only have to average 20" a week from here on out! My current 21.2" total is 2nd worst YTD of 18 winters, besting only 06-07's 19.0" (and we know how that season turned out for the E half of NNE.) Though something interesting could pop up with just a few days notice, current models appear to have this year sink to the bottom over the next 1.5 weeks. Edit: This winter also has a sizable head start for beating 09-10 and 11-12 as mildest DJFM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely going to be a struggle to get near average...not unheard of but it needs to start breaking right for most of us on every single event like Jan 15-Apr 15, 2007.

wxeyeNH Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 This winter has sure been boring weather wise. I know you Vermont guys have upslope squalls to look forward to from time to time. Other than one storm of 6" just nickels and dimes for me. Grass is starting to show on south facing slopes. Spoke to the folks who live in the NW Baltimore suburbs. As of 3pm today (Monday) not one plow has come through since the snow started. He lives in a pretty thickly dense suburbs only 2 or 3 miles from the city line. It will be interesting to see how long it takes. Last time they could leave was Friday afternoon. Dad's 84 and not to good with the phone's camera I guess. I see more of his thumb than anything!

wxeyeNH Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Since there is so little to talk about weather wise here is a video from today. Decided to buzz the bob houses on Newfound Lake. Video is kind of boring, I should start editing these. It's easy to survey the ice conditions with the drone. Only the southern bay of Newfound is frozen. I don't think I have ever seen so much of the lake open so late in the season. The whole lake is ready to "catch" as many of the protected parts have skims of ice. We just have not had calm nights. That looks to change but every day will get above freezing so it will be interesting to see what happens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBSRQLZ1wb4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The little northern stream disturbances moving through have some appeal for NNE. Type of thing that adds up while we all focus on the cutter/SWFE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
