PWMan Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Just had to have one of those difficult conversations with my 13YO: “Dad, how can it be 8 degrees and not snowing?” Someone should really put out a meteorological facts-of-life pamphlet for curious adolescents. Otherwise they’ll just get misinformation from their friends at school... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last forecasts/discussions I’d seen didn’t anticipate the surge of upper warmth until around midday. Hoping for some back-end accumulations I guess, but the forecast 12+ seems like a lost cause right now. I'm pretty sure we had the mix getting into the PWM area around 12z. Widespread double digits is definitely not going to work out, but Kittery and Cape Neddick are over 10" so some places near the coastal front are working out.

NECT Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Made it up to 32º around 6:00 am. Back down to 27º with light drizzle and sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Snow/sleet here since the start, probably about 6". Blowing off my roof with the wind gusts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deciding if i should blow now or wait for it all to fall on top of the snow and clear it later...worried it may be impossible to clear the stuff that falls from here on out on its own..... Im in the teens here in plaistow, pouring frozen rain/sleet/pellets....probably 5-6" on the ground I cleaned the 6 up. I rather go back out and move two inches of slush than go out once and try to move 7 inches of cement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sankaty Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 11.5" with moderate snow in Reading, VT. 28F in Middletown. Any ground truth from the Middletown area? I'm assuming (and hoping) for sleet vs. ZR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowlieSnowstormson Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 WOW. Temps were unimpressive when I went to bed and I thought this was going to be a flop. Woke up to 27 degrees and pouring freezing rain. Have to give mad, mad credit to Will for doggedly sticking with his reasoning on the cold air drain. I shouldn’t have doubted.

BuildingScienceWx Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 After our two inches of snow, we've been recording ZR for the past 7 hours. I measured ice accretions a little over .25". Getting scary out there. 31/30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
