wxeyeNH Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I'm in the car right now. As a passenger... On Route 93 in central New Hampshire. They have large DPW trucks with large cylinders on them and some kind of spray system spraying liquid calcium chloride on the roads. I have never seen them pretreat the interstate like this before a storm. Maybe they're doing it because this is the first time the roads have been treated the season I don't know?

It's 10' in East Windsor. You have to remember that it is sea level to Hartford and tidal effects can be seen as far north as Windsor Locks. But, this is not the thread to discuss elevations. Bottom line is that it's not 160'+. You can look it up yourself on a USGS map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHDOT does that before pretty much every storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Def a sick arimass.... ORH is 25F at peak insolation of the day and their record low max for this date is 30F in 1996. They are also threatening the coldest maximum on record prior to 11/20...the current record is 27F set on 11/16/67. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-treating roads is becoming more and more common in NH. The brine is less expensive and less corrosive. And it is safer for the environment.

Typhoon Tip Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 seems like we repeat this a lot. Event after event after event... Clear indicators in the models... overthink kicks in, suddenly ..we know more than our own experience and we're down to Advisories clear to almost Glenn Falls NY with DPs of 10 F and 40 of units of UVM riding over top... Sometimes I wonder if we just invent reasons to doubt ... and sound intelligent while doing so, too. So the Euro comes in late second with a sleet bomb and ...well, whatever. I think it's a relative win still going with warning for general impact - Euro can hiccup too. But 5.5" of snow then .5" sleet then.1" of icing then drizzle at a balmy 33 F is a nightmare to a non acclimated public so ...it's better in the PR of the thing.

DomNH Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 FWIW I'm looking at the 12z Euro soundings for ASH and I don't see any sleet at 06z. Maybe the in between hours between 06z and 12z but it's snow through 06z verbatim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really don't get into the front end thump like further south, Just seems to be more overrunning stuff up here with a burst somewhere from the mid level fronto band.
