That one was an overachiever too for CT(picked up 7.5" in that one to start off the season), and had very good snowgrowth and was a nice event to start off the season. This one and that one are like the "Bookends" of the winter...Nice way to go out imo. Except there’s 2 more events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 1 minute ago, CTValleySnowMan said: I believe codfish got 3 which is pretty linear with reports of 5 BDL area and 4 here not necessarily a bad valley screw job there just a bit north of the most persistent banding. 52.5 on the season is above normal here despite the lousy retention and valley shaft jobs. He said a page or two back that he got boned again....and just a few miles away had more. So that's why I stated that in my post. Perhaps it wasn't as bad?? Maybe he'll chime in and clarify??

WinterWolf Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I'm not thinking I see anything Thursday night/Friday. Your elevation may help you with that set up...but not so much where I am.

Times Square cam as usual didn’t show much accumulation. Great image. I never imagine the inner city cams like Time Square showing much unless it's a huge event. Urban snow on tall buildings is always kind of meh looking anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be nice to get that sfc low "under" us. The GFS tries to CAD us up here and force the low a little to my south, but ultimately doesn't succeed. Any flip back to snow is probably just post frontal showers/flurries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Miser Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 47 minutes ago, CoastalWx said: Basically you had good WAA aloft, say 5-8 thousand feet above the surface. This lift translated well into the snow growth zone which was maybe 10-15 thousand feet above ground. This area of forcing sort of pushed NE and then E which led to a few hours of mdt-hvy snow across CT into RI and SE MA. Thanks. I need to get myself more educated.

They have been a relative weenie spot since 2011. The first three March events here were disasters, first was 3 degrees too warm, second was subsidence hell with NJ cashing in. Third was banding 25 miles east of me and dealing with 34F light crap. Jan 4 was a great event here though, end of March event definitely produced and today was a treat. I have 48” for the season and I’m on the low end of Long Island totals-north shore is 60-70”+. Glad this Nina could produce for us, sucks to be south of Philly and struggling to 10”. Good thing about NYC is that we can produce in both Nina and Nino patterns, but also blow chunks when the cutoff is 20 miles south or east of us. NYC is probably the worst to forecast for among the major northeast cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
