MillvilleWx Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Just now, psuhoffman said: I’ve noticed that it sometimes struggles with lighter precip at the start of an event and in those cases will default to surface temps. I don’t know if it takes a bit to calculate or if light precip is an issue for its algorithm but it does much better with heavier precip once an event gets going. That certainly makes sense. That's likely the issue. I still like that radar a lot. Just have to be wary early on in these types of setups. Enjoy the snow up there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 You can almost see a little pivot to the radar right now, which hopefully with get a tiny bit more cold air in here to change me over and also force some of the dark greens and yellows up my way.

Deck getting a little slushy, but everything else still wet. Seems to be picking up on the intensity. Liking it more and more. See you on the sledding hill.

dukeblue219 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 This is a nice pretty snow to watch at least. It may not accumulate much beyond the grass, but I love watching big fat flakes fall when it's calm and quiet outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
