I know air temps are pretty cold that doesn't drive ratios. Is 10:1 or higher a good starting point? I'm thinking higher but we shall soon see. I think they will be reduced as the mid levels warm..

I feel like ratios are never clear cut for myself so I just go with fluff or wet lol and let the qpf do the work. but, in the end what is the difference between 12:1 on 0.5 qpf vs 10:1? meaning, im not gonna go nuts fighting over 6" vs 5". its a good snowfall regardless, looks pretty, and the fun to be had is still there. Maybe in large systems where we fight for ratios because it makes the difference between 18" vs 22" but thats really for own weenie egos claiming our jackpot throne anyways.

MarkO Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I'm guessing the snow growth profiles are quite variable tpomorrow. I think we do well up here in terms of depth, but man snow back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 7 minutes ago, Damage In Tolland said: All 3 have 5 here But, I think the first few hours of their radar coverage maps is actually evaporating as they show snow breaking out in the next couple hours. I think that's actually going to be lost to moisten up the atmosphere a bit. So, while the radar simulations are showing its snowing, there's zilch showing as accumulated for a few hours. For those interested, here are the last two HRRR totals. The newest run has come in colder allowing for a pretty uniform 4"coverage. Not as much as Monday, but it'll help keep what's already on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 4 hours ago, WthrJunkyME said: We're at 8 below already tonight. They were calling for a low tonight of 3 below. Already colder than last night's low and still dropping. Makes me wonder how far off the NWS forecast is for the remainder of the weekend? Meh. Busting on radiational cooling doesn't mean the rest of the weekend is wrong. For the record I was always on tonight to be as cold or colder than last night because of the high location and decoupling potential with WAA aloft. It's usually night two after the cold front that gets the best temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
