NeonPeon Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 1 minute ago, Baroclinic Zone said: BID and HYA too Makes sense, cheers. Was hoping we'd just about make it but just shy of the necessary winds. Still a really fun storm,and I'd take the wind over more snow, but between never getting under the heaviest banding, and losing 3 hours of snow to rain this morning (which was NOT as predicted) Newport found a way to a relative min, as it usually does, one way or the other. Snow was quite wet though. This storm made a lot of people very happy, awesome stuff, can't wait to take a walk in it in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lava Rock Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Not a huge storm up here but the intensity was great for short time. Winds whipping now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Just now, CoastalWx said: I guess all I am saying, Ray...is the NE MA lull was more synoptic in nature. You could see it on the models. It even extended down into this area. Yes, true....mechanisms were different, but if you looked at an accumulation map, it still had that appeal.

SR Airglow Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Measurement average so far is around 10.5", but individual measurements ranged from 9" to 14". It's almost impossible to get an accurate number with this one considering all the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 got there, 15" total. The last 2.25" from the back build band that popped up and iced the cake from 1-4pm. Great storm. Lets go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I said the oes component was insignificant. I do think that low level convergence may have been augmented by cf at one point...though this was more synoptic, yes....just so happened to match said scenario qualitatively speaking...

On the N side of town. Also good to do it every 6 hrs. Even the Quincy and Randolph guys who can be low has 10-11 earlier. I know the Randolph guys..former co-worker.

CoastalWx Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Probably getting some enhancement as H5 moves in and helps aid in a burst of lift. Almost a weak TROWAL too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 From 6am today "I like a general 10-15" MAX for this event. Someone could lolli more but i think with the way this is so consolidated we are asking for a bust forecasting any more than that. I think there will be some areas that take a bit longer to get steady rates going while others rip for hrs prior (and i don't mean western areas first) I like a general forecast of 8-14" forecast for this event with the higher end more likely down by SE CT, RI, SE MA" not a bad call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
