I have been so frustrated with this storm. Really wanted "the big one". A couple of runs got me up to 1.2" or so. Everything is now backing down. 18Z NAM still gives me 1" but that is always overdone. I was hoping for 10". Now I will settle for 8" although better ratios up here on the hill may help me.

Yeah for sure. I wouldn't mind if it were January but it is getting late. I wasn't feeling this from the beginning but last night had me ignoring that for a bit and then it went against us LOL.

This will be my 10th 6" or greater event this winter which seems like a lot. No big events, just a whole bunch of medium sized ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I have heavy snow, vis perhaps 750 feet. I wonder where the pivot point will set up? Can see that band of very heavy returns just sitting. We still have the shot next week too although the 18Z GFS reversed its trend a bit and went back south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing with the previous map, it looks like things were scaled back a couple inches on average, with some spots a bit more and some a bit less. Most notable was that change to Winter Weather Advisories in the Champlain Valley and off to the west of the Northern Adirondacks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Extremely heavy snow right now. Snow globe. That band over me moving NW is intense. Meanwhile, S NH is getting lighter snow. Beggars can't be choosers but wish this was during daylight. I marked various trees with the drone but have no idea of actual vis, must be around 1/8.

J.Spin Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Event totals: 0.5” Snow/0.06” L.E. Details from the 6:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.5 inches New Liquid: 0.06 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 8.3 Snow Density: 12.0% H2O Temperature: 33.8 F Sky: Light Snow (2-10 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 5.0 inches The only snow accumulation as of 6:00 P.M. observations time was the ½” from earlier today, but snowfall was just starting back up at that point and there’s definitely been an increase in intensity over the past couple of hours.

J.Spin Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I was just checking on the point forecast for here at the house, and it’s got another 6-12” of snow over the next couple of days. That's good, but I also checked the Mansfield elevation forecast, and it’s pretty impressive with something in the 10-20” range over the next few days. We really haven’t had many of our typical multi-day snowy stretches this season, but maybe we’ll get one with the way this storm behaves. The graphical point forecast has definitely got that look (the actual days and days of snow, vs. the fraud one we keep hearing about in the forum that never seems to come anywhere near fruition): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 4.0" pretty much on the dot in Stowe via the old car roof top method at 5:30am. Oddly enough, there's only 3" at 1,500ft at the base of the mountain. And it certainly looks like it. 3" of fluffier snow at the mountain with 4" of what seemed to be decent density at home.

tamarack Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Had 0.1" at 9 last evening, looks like 9-10" now though I've not been out to measure. Still mod-hvy snow, looks like several hours more before it lightens up. Edit: Can hear the plow outside - that will help when I go out to clear the driveway.

powderfreak Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Models are more robust today than I thought they would. With 4" if we can get another half inch of QPF we could make a run at something decent today. HRRR through 10pm: 6z NAM... 6z RGEM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 It isn't the big one but it is photogenic that is for sure. I went around taking shots early this morning. Still snowing here. I hope the trees hold on to it for a little while longer for later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
