Brian is not too far from the Merrimack and neither am I, but we both are on hills. Andover is on a line a bit more for me I think and Danbury on a line directly to Brian given how the streamers were oriented. I am the nw side of Boscawen close to Webster.

The map is a little weird as it should be rotated clockwise about 20-30 degrees. There had to have been a weenie sliver of 6-8" going back to those Windsor county VT obs. The 7.9" is Danbury. They had 7.9" with 0.35" liquid which was a similar ratio to my 6.9"/0.25". Pretty cool. For Brian, but also in case GYX is interested: Very big differences in close proximity. Got off at exit 19 on 93 and it looked like there had been a sizeable snowfall, consistent with 6-7 " I could tell partially by how much snow had been plowed off the road and how much seemed to be on the ground on top of the existing few inches of sleetpack. Drove up to Knolls Farm Rd towards the east side of Northfield and quickly it was clear there was less snow. Probably 2-3" Drove over to Rt 3 in Tilton to drive towards Franklin. looked like a 3-5" snowfall West side of Franklin near rt 127 looked heavier again 5-6" maybe and that continued to the north part of Boscawen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torch Tiger Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Everything about this winter has been really good. Burning through 1.5 months of early-midwinter mild and nearly snowless, thunderstorm outbreaks. late Jan and Feb it snows itself out for a few weeks before we blaze into sun angle and baseball talk.

Torch Tiger Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I know NP claimed to have arthritis issues, similar to Phil Collins for ex., but you have to wonder if he had been battling cancer for a while too. He was a very private person, not sure he'd put that out there. Great drummer and musician. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, many of us drummers had been wondering why Lifeson and Rush called it quits so suddenly. Surely, superhuman NP wouldn't let a little arthritis get in the way. That is just like Neil Peart, though. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Deer everywhere around here. Have had a few close calls myself but went to get dinner with my wife and sister and law tonight and On our way home we smashed into one... broke both of its back legs. Sad, but completely unavoidable. Police came and the plan was to put it down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 4 Seasons Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Video from a late effect band that dropped 28" in 4 hours. This is an average rate of 7"/hr which means it's very likely that at times the rates we above that number in the 8-9"/hr range and below that 7 too. I realize this is pure fluff probably 20-30:1 but in the video it really never looks more than 2-4"/hr rates, visibility looks to probably drop to 1/8th mile. I would think at 7"/hr or more that vis would be reduced to near zero or just a couple hundred feet. What do you guys think? I believe him, it's just the video isn't really reflecting those kind of rates (to me) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 That video is unimpressive and looks nothing close to 7”/hr. That would be complete and utter no visibility. That is nothing close to that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had times where we approached 5 or maybe even more last March briefly in some of the most intense snow rates I’ve ever seen and it was near zero vis.

dendrite Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Fake effect. I will say though that the super large dendritic LES snows tend to have higher vis for the same rates. Of course it's huge amounts of 30:1 fake fluff. idk about 28" in 4hrs there. Where did he get the 28"? Did they measure before every time they snowblowed? In a 4hr sample like that you shouldn't be clearing at all. So I have my doubts. 4hrs of 0.25" liquid at 30:1 would give you 7.5"/hr and 30". But again, by hour 4 the weight of that is compacting the earlier snow below it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
