Cold Miser Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 2 hours ago, Damage In Tolland said: If you listened to people who get the pattern you would have expected a couple inches Thats what i meant. Many seemed to under play it. I suppose since 6+ wasn't coming, or because other events tomorrow and next week looked less productive overnight. 1-2 always seemed to be a legit call.

wxmanmitch Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Dumping...probably around 1" per hour stuff now. Upstream radar looks good with a nice WSW conveyor of precipitation. HRRR keeps us snowing until 3-4 AM. Measured 1.75" at 4 PM during a lull, but we're likely at least 3" now. Will measure in a bit. We never broke freezing and winds have now swung around to the west, indicating the cold front has passed so I think we should be done with warming. DDH and AQW both got to 42° F and 44° F respectively while I was fogged in with temps in the upper 20s. I've since risen to 31° F thanks to post frontal mixing. DDH and AQW are now dropping with -RA so they may flip back to some wet snow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our roads were finally salt/sand free but that just came to an end again with tons of salt/sander that went by. So no clean cars until the next rain event. Urrgghhh! I’m not sure that underperformed where you are. Models seemed to have it mostly S of the MA/NH border Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. 1-2 was the call for the interior of the state. Some reached around themselves and tugged it too much though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was measuring around the yard yesterday and average was about 2 feet with some spots 30-32". Sunny, southern exposure spots are 6-10". 5" new so far today as of 1050 pm with moderate snow, 30° F. Upstream radar continues to look good, looks like this may be turning into a nice little overachiever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An amazing drive up 7 tonight. White rain until I got to the 1500’ sign and it was dumping with snow covered roads. Heading north down to Manchester it went back to rain. Then snow again as I got above 1200’. Still a solid foot or more in the woods here. Excited to see what’s even higher up tomorrow morning at Stratton.

tamarack Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Overachiever, and my 20:1 ratio guess was too modest. Finished with 3.8" from 0.14" LE, ratio 27:1. Now 15 at the stake, down an inch from last evening - no surprise given that fluff factor. The pup loves the snow. Her TX origins aren't even in the rear view mirror.

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 7” here in Winhall SVT. The 4” that fell last night is incredibly high ratio. Has to be something like 30|1 which is super impressive for April. Those cold 850s got it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 7-7.5" total this morning, which averages to 7.2". Lots of blowing and drifting since the snow is powdery on top. Turned into a nice little event. Deep, deep winter with cold winds. The Woodford measurement of 7.5" on WeatherNet6 seems accurate this go around. Sometimes they're pretty close, other times not.
