weathafella Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I have a solid 3. Walking the dog earlier made me realize the streets needed plowing. That said, it's April. These rates and temps a month ago would have given me 6-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just one of those storms where you could be ok or even good with the details but still wayyy off with the impacts (e.g. accums on paved surfaces). I'm confused. You were arguing boundary layer? I was saying it wasn't the real issue verbatim. Even now I was 31.8 in the snow. But I also was meh on Boston and even that was overplayed lol. I admit not studying other areas...just somewhat happy Boston didn't get like 10" when we had 2-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 3-6" for BOS and 4-8" for NE Mass/ORH County and even that may be too much. As I said along with jbedenet, lots of red flags...warm mid-level temps, lack of a strong SLP in April, long duration E winds...this was a set-up that rated to bust in April. To get a big late-season snowstorm, you usually need one of two things: 1) Arctic airmass: See 4/7/03 2) Wound up SLP: See 4/1/97 or 4/6/82 This had neither.

ORH_wxman Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Looks like Ashburnham has 8.7". Pretty solid. Though I would have forecasted closer to a foot for them before the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how we have the technology to do these types of videos with not a whole lot of money respectively (obviously there are price ranges in drones though). It wasn't too long ago that in order to get this kind of video you had to watch those "Over New England" or other PBS type fly over shows. Very cool indeed.

Temps were near zero in N. Maine 1-2 days before the storm. (And record cold NYC north during.) Added another inch-plus thru the day, a bit surprising given only light snow and temps 32-33. Of course, that accum only happened atop existing snow - even my white pickup couldn't hold snow. Now that the sun has lowered to mid-Jan angle, looks like the snow is petering out. Doubt I had a tenth of those deluge precip numbers from E.Mass, but a snow core thru the 27" pack today yielded 10.35" SWE, almost 40% water content. The multiple crusts had softened a bit, so I may have gotten a better sample than the ones 2 weeks and 6 weeks back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
