HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 When did I say I'm surprised it's moving faster than modeled? I'm just saying it's amazing to see how quickly it moved across RI, basically in less than a half hour. Oh' you didn't, I'm just wondering if it ever actually moves slower than modeled.

OceanStWx Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Oh' you didn't, I'm just wondering if it ever actually moves slower than modeled. Lol Always too slow with the warmth aloft, and too fast with the warmth at the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Always too slow with the warmth aloft, and too fast with the warmth at the surface. Yep...it's really rare to get an event that doesn't do that...when it's S or SW flow aloft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codfishsnowman Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 flipped...looks to be about an inch and a half...the thirty to forty minutes prior was the nicest snow of the winter...best looking flakes, good rate and stacked right up in the ever short lifespan it had here in the bowels of death valley western mass if only it could snow like that sometime for twelve hours out here...none of this crappy snow growth arctic sand etc or snow that accumulates on cartops and roofs and decks but not roads etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Yep...it's really rare to get an event that doesn't do that...when it's S or SW flow aloft do you think ZR will be a concern anywhere? I get nervous with forecasting much ZR with no real HP to the north but some of the models are interesting with the ZR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 do you think ZR will be a concern anywhere? I get nervous with forecasting much ZR with no real HP to the north but some of the models are interesting with the ZR It will be an issue for a while...but I don't think there will be enough to cause power outages or anything.

CoastalWx Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Definitely a cstl front near BOS and down 95 to PVD. NW of there, I would watch icing into tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Is there a wave forming on the warm front because the three hour pressure changes showing a pretty good depression east of Long Island could also just be the warfm front itself approaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More just a driving hazard. yeah I don't think we will have power issues either due to the ZR...I'm more wondering about whether we have enough to have AM classes cancelled I'm just amazed looking at some of the soundings and seeing the major surge of warmth aloft, however, just above the sfc the cold air remains in place for a long time...even with a screaming southerly flow. Anyways looks like we'll be experiencing some dry slotting now though...doing that in Danbury with a very light ZR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 14.2F light snow up here. You guys that are changing to sleet and freezing rain, my trick is to never shovel the snow with frozen still falling or freezing rain falling. If you inland and stay in the 30's you end up with 1/4 of ice on the driveway. Better to wait till its just starts raining and is 32F or more. That way no ugly falls after the shovel. One year I shoveled right after it snowed and we ended getting so much freezing rain the ice on the driveway lasted a month so I have learned to wait till the magic 32F mark.
