dendrite Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 A little rant, but you would think we could put temperature sensors that can get below -40F at the AWOS sites in northern latitudes. A lot of these sites petered out in the middle of the night after hitting -39F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After -39C they go into hibernation like Ray in the summer. Not all of them stopped reporting though...I see CDD kept going beyond M40. Maybe the others have outdated sensors?

Expand It was fun. He told me he wasn't that cold, despite being out in in from 3PM until 10:15PM with a 30 minute break. Whiteout at times We had 2" at my house, but a bit hard to measure due to the blowing. Best weather day of the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin Co came in a little under NWS forecast (even up at the elevations) but only because of baking powder poor snow growth not lack of QPF. 4.25" of semi-dense here, about 5" up at MPM's place according to my friends up that way.

tamarack Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Finished with 5.1" from 0.47" LE, so didn't reach the 6-10 forecast though close - mostly SN- with a bit of SN. 1st 3"+ event this season with ratio over 10:1, and that rare all-snow storm. Squall came thru a couple hours after my 9 PM obs on 1/30, so that 0.4" is recorded in 1/31. Month finishes with 33", 160% of my Jan average.
