Euro looks like a lot of cold rain over the next 10 days. Quebec up in the St Lawrence Seaway just gets clobbered though. With 40-70" on the ground up that way from a season of getting clobbered, what's another couple feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thermals are real close to a good 3-4" burst in the hills of NNE. Those thoughts seem quite consistent with what I’m seeing in the point forecasts around here – a touch of snow in the valley with a few inches in the hills.

wxeyeNH Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 12Z GFS has me in the 2-4" snowfall range. Seems plausible if we get the qpf. 36.6/5F with clouds thickening. Lots of room for temp to fall as sun angle decreases late afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Event totals: 0.5” Snow/0.11” L.E. My wife said that the precipitation was a mix of rain and snow as she headed through Waterbury this evening, but snow by the time she got here to the house. I’ve had the rain gauge in summer mode, and there was no liquid in it, so I guess it’s been all snow thus far. We had a good burst of snow for a while there visible by the 30-35 db returns on the radar: Details from the 10:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.5 inches New Liquid: 0.11 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 4.5 Snow Density: 22.0% H2O Temperature: 33.3 F Sky: Light Snow (2 to 6 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 10.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for 2001, 07, 11, spring snow has consistently come in way under forecast here. The 3 snow vents this spring (not counting the unexpected 0.2" flurry last week) were progged for about 8" total, and brought a bit less than 2" - typical. This one seems to have better legs - Farmington's 90% chance/most likely/10% is currently 1/6/11. Past experience says the 1" may be closer. We're driving to WVL and back midday tomorrow (wife's cataract #2) so it could get interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PF has had a post or two, and I’ve had a post or two (and you’ve had a couple of posts), so I’d say it’s about the usual in the thread for what’s there in the models. From what I’ve seen it’s just not a rock solid “yep, that’s a foot of snow for the spine” setup yet. The skins are certainly on the skis and ready though. Actually the skins are still on from one of our recent outings at Bolton when we were anticipating having to skin because of the winds, but they were able to run the Timberline Quad. There are some encouraging runs, but things can be a bit more tenuous this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 NNE Musings: Enjoyed my hour of sun earlier. Looks like that's it. At least it got me into the 40's. Im very much doubting the upper 50's as models are showing. Chimney guy came and swept out the chimney and stove is off. Burning the oil this AM. Why does the house feel so cold with oil heat vs wood? I guess its the up and down on the thermostat, on/off cycle. I hate the noise the furnace makes. A mouse made it into the bedroom at 345am. Lots of squealing and 2 cats running around and crashing into things. They couldn't get the mouse. He's hiding in there someplace his hours are numbered with our felines Just not feeling it with these snow chances. Im too far SW with tomorrow AM and not on board with Tuesday but this is just gut feeling. I've posted lots of animal pictures from the weather cam but last night tops them all. I counted 40 animals between deer and turkeys. 26 are in this picture more were around the other side of the house. Total zoo out there as the pastures continue to open up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
