tamarack Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Should be a couple of inches here. That first band should peeter out...better forcing will come in behind it. This is more of a NNE/CNE event anyways. I'm not too concerned about temps. We have a ton of room to wetbulb down. Dews in the singles - will suck up considerable precip but probably keep whatever makes it to the ground frozen until after sunrise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more of a NNE/CNE event anyways. I'm not too concerned about temps. We have a ton of room to wetbulb down. Yeah looks like most of the precip is after 9-10pm. But what is the RGEM smoking? It has not backed down at all today...like three straight runs of a half inch QPF in this area below 32F. It'll be interesting to see what happens as this would be a fairly big short term (like 12 hours) bust for the RGEM as no other model is even close to it on the moisture amounts from here down to your area (or Gene's at least).

powderfreak Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 GFS joins the party for 6"+ amounts in the Greens and Whites. Jeez. I dunno, I have my doubts on getting a half inch of QPF as snow tonight by 7am/12z. But GFS and RGEM now on board for around 0.5" QPF from here to the Lakes Region of NH. Looks like LCI gets 0.5" tonight too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm starting to doubt the 1-2 in SNE..Wonder if most of that is just virgo or flakes/sprinkles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 33/28 Definitely snowing a few thousand feet above my head so I'm happy. No joke, Greenfield pre-salted all the streets tonight. Budget to use up? Optimistic for a fresh coating on top of some of the only snow pack in SNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbutts Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 HRRR with a nice burst of snow tonight in most places straight through NNE and SNE moving east. HRRR.png Hah, Sure it won't happen like this, but it's perfect for my area.. strong band comes through as rain while everyone else enjoys snow even to the coast of RI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 1/2sm moderate snow at the ASOS. Wouldn't be surprised to see that drop to 1/4sm +SN judging by this band.

powderfreak Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 1" in heavy snow. Sort of like a squall line more than warm air advection, but the HRRR nailed it with a line of 0.1" QPF rolling through between 8-10pm. Then it's got a break and another round later of 0.1-0.2" QPF. Feel pretty good for 2-3" tonight.
