powderfreak Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 About 4.5” total after a half inch overnight. Essential sand, you barely sink into it. Should be some decent squalls with the ULL later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had several very close strikes down by the greenfield rotary. Saw a few firetrucks head over to Bjs. Pretty sure the restaurant itself or the immediate area got stuck twice. Both times the entire computer system went down due to surges. Had several outlets in the kitchen throw sparks. My cooks freaked out, lol. Lost the ability to process credit cards for a few hours, which sucked. Between that and the water main break outside the store on Saturday night, I've had a few unlucky shifts at work. ... it's times like this when being the guy in charge isn't fun.

tamarack Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 At 7 we'd had 3.5" from 0.46" LE, tiny flakes at mid 20s for a 7.6-to-one ratio. Only need another half inch plus to make it the season's biggest event so far. The good bands seem to fall apart as they move north from Androscoggin County to Franklin, though maybe that's due to increasing miles from GYX.

Yup.. echo that visage over here in Ayer. Looks like we did end up with ~ .2" of accretion from this thing after all, and 2 .. maybe 3" of cement on the ground. Icing was having difficulty taking place prior to last evening. We were either IP, or wet snow much of the day, then got interesting. We had a couple of thunderstorm around supper time - of all things ... Nary a peep re thunder in any forecast efforts that I saw prior to the event. Nonetheless, flash-boom-ba, with very large sleet pellets - probably stuck together... We then settled back into moderate sleet and ZR, in a fog of pixie dust, with temperature sliding into the upper 20s... Worse part of the storm for us over here was definitely between 5pm and midnight last evening, with anything prior to quite forgettable. It was tough getting around and just nasty out of doors last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our glaze is the 'gray' type, because it's 90/10 water and pixie crystals mixed, which just means there a bit of air trapped in the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked back at mos and it was by far the best in the MHT-ASH corridor. Far better than 2mt. I guess it should be, but it was more pronounced than most events.

We figured - climo and experience - that the models wouldn't really see that discrete of a detailed behavior because it is still outside their resolution wheel-house. Something about the planetary/atmospheric interface ... the geo-physics are missing? It needs furthering science and evolution, because it's an area of modeling that as far as I can tell, is invisible to them. So, they set up but don't do the push, or that tornado ... you know? ... But it's up to human interpretation and experience to then modulate/fill in for those disadvantages. The art is not going overboard with buns and ketchup, heh And to your point, .. MOS is a climate sloped product as we know, so it performing better intuitively fits there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually warmed a bit inside 495 up to Ray, but the drain was certainly in the interior. I thought we did well calling that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 12.3" as of this morning, and still snowing. Time to dig into where guidance whiffed on this since I wasn't on shift and looking at the trends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
