OceanStWx Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 HRRR hitting some terrain enhanced cirrus tomorrow. This stuff can be quite thick at times and could affect the warm temps. I'll be curious to see how it verifies, but it is cool to see the level of detail these models can spit out at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's by far the best set up, round measuring pole in the center as opposed to a fixed measuring stake on any of the sides. Works great for me on the mountain when we get big snowpacks as it just floats on top...so you don't have the hole in the snowpack that'll just fill in with wind each time. You want that board floating on top of a nice uniform area and you'll get some very reliable readings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a square one i use for snow pack depth, When there is wind it would drift up the front of it and add to the depth, This way here with it being round, It should not happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Noticed this afternoon that the Saco Lake (in Pinkham Notch across from the AMC, a few miles from me) was nicely skimmed with ice. Warm night though, currently 41.5 with light rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think circular is the way to go from what I've seen. The wooden board around the black area...that'll float perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I’ve got the numbers for October precipitation at our site: Snow: 1.1” (137.5%) Liquid: 4.04 (73.9%) The 1.1” of snow was less than last October (1.7”) but very typical for the month (mean = 0.8”, median = 1.0”). The timing of the first snow/frozen precipitation (Oct 22nd) was also quite typical – it was a few days behind average for first frozen precipitation (Oct 19th) but a few days ahead of average first accumulating snow (Oct 26th). Total liquid was a bit on the low side as has been the general trend over the past several months, and that was mostly due to the first 2/3 of the month. Liquid equivalent in the last 1/3 of the month, which is all from the various snowstorms that came through the area during that period, was 3.75” or 92.8% of the month’s total.

powderfreak Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Looks like the PWS in this area are 0.5-0.7" today though I haven't been home to check the Stratus. It poured for 2-3 hours there with a few hours of light rain on either side. Getting very windy up at the mountain. Most of the natural snow is gone except above 3000ft where it's patchy cover. The man-made snow is still holding on pretty well all things considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm pleased with what's left of the man-made. Below 2000ft its piles with grass between them but up above say 23-2400ft it's continuous and that's a big head start from say starting from scratch. I will say the river behind my place is as full as I've seen it all year...just ripping along. There was a decent couple inches of liquid in the mountain pack up high that's now released and you can see it. River wouldn't look like this for 0.6" rainfall event normally. Crazy though that there's still snowbanks in spots around the parking lot and at the end of RT 108 by the resort. Those piles of high water content snow take forever to melt.

Just SE of here was a swath of 1"-1.25" but still a solid soaking. We'LL see what the ULL and trough axis brings, could see some spots getting up to a quarter inch more but it'LL be more terrain oriented as well.

Been wet out this way but we missed that big like 3-6" rainer in the October event. Mother Nature loves her averages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
