It was sneaky.....the sidewalk was just wet so the grate caught me by surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Was up until midnight snowblowing and cleaning up paths for the chickens. What a mistake. There's like an inch new of sleet and zr on top of everything. I just spent 2 hours scraping and shoveling it off. It wouldve been 100x easier if i had just left it down and snowblowed the crust right off the top. FML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 What a cold tuck. Still struggling to get out of mid 20's along the sea coast region of NH away from the immediate shore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about clearing round 1 yesterday evening but got lazy. Other than the top of my driveway, I think I made the right decision. All told between the two rounds of precip, it looks like 4"-5" after compaction from the sleet and freezing rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell we still had a coating of sleet otg from the previous storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I think this should have been viewed more as an arctic front with a cold antecedent airmass out ahead of it from the beginning--that at least has been my best understanding from three days out.

Eh, even if it torched, it's getting replaced in like 20 hours, lol. But gonna be hard to melt off the snow/sleet pack over the interior with only a few hours of 40s...esp once the drier dewpoints start advecting in.

tamarack Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 3 hours ago, Ginx snewx said: Nice, SR 13 new Glad to see the mts got dumped on. For a multi P-type event, depths were surprisingly similar from the coast thru the foothills - usually there's a gradient as one moves inland, unless there's a qpf cutoff. I measured thrice in this event. At 7 yesterday I had 0.7" from the overnight puff, with just 0.02" LE. At 9 last night with snow rate just shy of heavy, I added 2.5" with 0.24" LE. Then the overnight brought 2.0" of snow/IP with 0.49" LE. No ZR; temp was still barely above 10 when precip quit about 7 AM (almost exactly as GFS had modeled - at least it was close to correct somewhere.) Ratios for the 3 measurements were 35, 10, and 4. Storm total 5.2" from 0.75" LE. Thanks to mucho sleet, pack only grew 3". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
