Outside of some of the coastal areas it wasn't too tough compared to some of them. Great job dude. Exceptional coverage.

What a friggin disaster, people don't listen carefully I mean didn't help that some of the other stations in the market had 1"-3" for Hartford right before the first flakes fell. There were a few things that jumped out at me. 1) The air mass was *really* anomalous out ahead of this thing. Looks like BDL tied their record low max temp. A 1040 hpa high really primed us. 2) The synoptics and mesoscale ingredients were there for a really nasty thump and at least .2 or 3 hours of really good rates. The NAM, RGEM, ECMWF all were pretty cold for at least a good chunk of the thump. 3) the WPC snow probabilities were beyond atrocious I have no idea wtf was going on with those.

I will wait to measure this one last time before I go to bed but I can tell you based on my experience, that I may be closing in on 8" of snow on the glass table right now.

The airmass was over performing all day too...so that also could have been a clue to anyone still really gun shy. ORH not only set their record low max for the date...it was the coldest max temp on record pre-11/20. The most impressive part of it, is it was achieved without precip falling.

MOS busted big last night because of the cirrus shield... but NAM and GFS MOS were printing out 11F for BDL. So the air mass was pretty sweet.

Dotb Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 My first check-in of the year. Gotta be right around 6, maybe a little more now in Andover. Really strange night too. It's so bright out there, it looks like it's twilight. On top of that, the wind stopped blowing for a couple minutes, and a whole bunch of leaves just literally fell out of the sky for a couple minutes in my front yard. No idea where they were blowing in from, as there are no trees in that area, and all of the trees around the neighborhood are already bare. They had to have gotten picked up and carried from a long way away, and just came down when they reached here and the wind died out. Never seen anything like that. Kind of freaky really.

THOSE are Incredible Stats. Looks like Ray's Forecast is off to a Good start. Especially since when the first storm outperforms... it's usually a good sign. IE November 2004 with that 6" storm.
