jhj Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Not even a trace here. WInter 2016 lives on. HRRR has about a half foot of snow for the south shore of boston tonight. over 1 inch in Niantic and still snowing! roads covered and looking like the first winter wonderland of this winter!

HullMA Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 2" on the road in west hingham/east rockland. Was dropping a friend off at the bus. Roads barely getting covered here in hull despite snowing the same amount. Coastal air is screwing accumulation. 5-15 miles from the ocean will be primetime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 The HRRR blows. It's about looking past a model. Other Mesos gave us some snow. Like I said it was bound to happen. When I saw the moon out I knew it was over (1)The HRRR doesn't blow (3)None of the mesos had an impressive amount of snow for you (2)This never had a good look for you guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Stuck in a bit of a screwzone between the beginnings of the IVT to my north and the coastal stuff to my SE, but regardless, SN- continues with a heavy coating -- guessing maybe around a half inch?

TalcottWx Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Rap/RGEM/BTV WRF..Only that one hour of the HRRR gave us nothing.. Look we get it..we got hosed on this. Hopefully next weekend happens I looked at every single one of those models. You only got hosed if you misinterpreted the data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Kevin says that model blows, don't use it.Not sure what your issue is tonight. The HRRR is not a great tool. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Good call on nothing tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenkins Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 What range is the HRRR most accurate? Less than 3 or 4 hours ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy4Confluence Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 SN 30 .5" Coming down steadily...nice snow growth. I'll take this over 30" that melts in 48 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 As suspected by viewing RAD, I'm a tad north of the rt 128 band. Coating and flurries. 29.3/25 Has to be a good inch like 5 miles to my south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 What range is the HRRR most accurate? Less than 3 or 4 hours ? HRRR is useful for big picture if you understand how to use it but Kev generally doesn't look at models and in addition generally makes things up especially when things don't work out his way in a snowfall.

JC-CT Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Not sure what your issue is tonight. The HRRR is not a great tool. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Good call on nothing tonightI'm not thrilled by it, but it is what it is. I got a virga storm, you got a moonlit night. It happens. Ryan called it in his Web video earlier this afternoon, just not enough moisture back this way to overcome dry air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently thumbing through a few papers and powerpoint slides to better understand the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Just cloudy in southern Vermont. Hoping for at least 3" tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowedin Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I haven't been paying much attention to the weather lately so this is a very pleasant surprise for me. Just took the dog out for a walk and noticed it was snowing at a good clip. Of course we have big, fat pasty flakes falling but I'll take it over the inch or so of snow we've had this winter. A little snow cover can only be helpful in the long run. 32/0.5" new snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 As suspected by viewing RAD, I'm a tad north of the rt 128 band.

BostonWX Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 29.2 here and maybe 1/2 inch. Screwgie so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'd probably give it a while for the next 6-8 hours before spiking footballs or tying nooses...even for NE CT. The IVT should only strengthen a bit and while N MA/S NH over to SE MA is definitely favored, these are not very predictable, and little surprises often happen. We'll see if any enhancement tries to occur across all areas as the stronger vortmax approaches overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenkins Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Slowing down, eyeballed an inch and half on the grass. Moon is starting to poke through the clouds. I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR Airglow Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I can see the band of heavier snow to the north from my apartment, one more mile south and I'd be in it, but for now SN- continues. Will measure in a little while but guessing somewhere between half an inch and an inch. Hard to know for sure from 12 stories up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
