OceanStWx Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 18 minutes ago, ORH_wxman said: Sometimes you can get really heavy bands just north of the dryslot there. I guess we will see tomorrow morning. Precip overnight looks pretty meh just about everywhere. Maybe a bit of a band in S VT and S/C NH but not all that intense. Seems like most of the show is really going to be between about 10z and 18z or so. Maybe if a little mini-stinger can develop it will linger into 21z....but for SNE I think the window is mostly tomorrow morning through about lunchtime....if it's going to happen. My biggest forecast concern is how persistent the forcing is in the mid levels. That could mean one narrow stripe ends up with the goods, with meh to either side. It's possible some narrow band tickles over 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 When I left Shelburne at 5:30 it was raining lightly--and all the way to Portsmouth. I'm awaiting to hear from my wife whether it's snowing there now. 31* here in Bath. The start time on this just seems to become later and later up here.

I think the best forcing is a hair north of me and I may get stuck in lighter/showery returns and end up closer to 2-3'' than 4-5'' but we'll see. NAM/HRRR definitely banging the W ME jack.

Looking to me like it just gets going too late to do much there. The whole thing looks kind of ugly right now. RGEM def looked the most organized, but a lot of these HRRR/RAP runs are less so. 3km NAM was pretty disorganized too. There's competing forces it seems on these disorganized runs...just when it looks like a ML weenie band will get going, the convective stuff near the dryslot robs it and the sim reflectivity turns putrid to the north...then that stuff turns showery and a weenie band tries to get going again, but then rinse and repeat. The HRRR kind of shows these competing forces with a second enhanced band down in MA south of the main S NH one. But who knows...I've seen these things pop really fast at the last second and all of the sudden you're wondering what happened right when you were ready to throw in the towel on a decent event.

I don’t think so...aren’t those more from Alberta? I never found the paper Tip mentions from time to time. Bozart I think? edit: Lance Bosart. Alberts has nothing to do with it. Just a smallish looking event that sometimes blossoms...not sure why Original source would help me maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 I think some wet flakes are mixing in here but it’s hard to tell. Hoping to wake up to white and solid mod snow but preparing myself for wet roads and mangled flakes. We’ll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually surprised to even see snow mixing in here already. Radar extrapolation would suggest maybe that steadier, heavier stuff out near Binghampton moves through here later?

I think if someone is gonna pop a 6 spot, it's gonna come tomorrow morning as the low starts intensifying south of SNE and heavier stuff starts blossoming nearly overhead.

Its a very good sign if you have 1-2" by 12z....good chance you might not have much of any accumulation by 12z...and most of it comes after 12z.

I really hope nobody S of Dendrite was planning on that given the tenuous nature of this system and November climo... I will be thrilled to have gotten three accumulating events in the 3rd week of November. #all gravy this early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 50/50 here but I am on the N edge of town. After all the elevation discussion in the other thread today, this is actually one of those instances of how a few hundred feet can sometimes make a difference.

JJBASHB Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 All snow in Ashburnham, accumulating on everything but the roads, when I left my parents house around 9. It changed to rain around Ashby Townsend. Currently a slushy rain in MHT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkO Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Weird system. I just took the dog out and was surprised to see wet flakes mixing in. Still about 90% rain, but the occasional mangled flake. Temp down 1/2 degree 34.5/33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
