It’s weird how different that looks than the WxBell 850 temp maps. Had more pockets of 0C stuff in VT, NH, ME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those WSI maps look like terrible resolution... yeesh. Then again maybe we are spoiled with maps that show these little couplets of upslope cooling to -0.5C and then downslope to 0.5C on every axis of terrain. It still amazes me that the models can see easterly flow and cool a pocket on the east slopes or the same with westerly flow in the other direction. Just these little things that maps like the WSI one will never be able to handle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 We have the same high resolution. On some model lab sites it’s the standard res. They work fine overall though. I’ve never had an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah normally you don't need to worry about those little nuances. They rarely matter but on a verbatim solution like that they might. But don't worry, it won't matter in another couple cycles.

Ha yeah I mean I haven't been very excited on this one... we've been between the forcing (NNY and then the WCB along the coast) on every single model run. Even the snowiest runs looked like half an inch of QPF, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sympathize with the skiers so I don't actually wish for rains to Maine. I don't mind if ya'll smoke cirrus a few times but I hate seeing warm sectors shooting up to the Canadian border. Hopefully you all at least salvage a bit of base builder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Most ski areas used the optimal temperatures of late to make tons of snow. Ski Sundown fully recovered from the thaw and has deep base depths. Very cold temperatures and the lack of wind was a big help. MLK weekend was also very busy, so busy in fact that Mount Snow ran out of rental equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 It's only January 22nd, Winter still has two months to go. Let's see what February does. 24.25" of snow here so far this season. Last year was 40" total. Can't complain right now, full snowcover and lows near zero the last two days. Beautiful weather since Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier in December, high res pivotal had exorbitant amounts of snows with marginal temps. I couldn’t figure out where it came up with it as the same areas were just above 0C. My point was just to take those snow maps with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You like to jog, maybe you would like cross country skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
