Lava Rock Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 That would put your total 1.1" ahead of mine, with Raymond leading the pack. Had 5.5" total with 0.46" LE, the initial 4" about 10:1 and the final (after 9 PM) 1.5" about 20:1. Now 21" at the stake, 18th winter of 22 reaching the 20" mark.Yeah it's nice to be slowly climbing the ladder and leaving those sne guys behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthShoreWx Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Just had a nice snow squall near Jackson. My son noticed it first as the mountains across the valley started disappearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten years ago this month brought the late great Feb slopfest, in which I got 10.7" of 4:1 mashed potatoes plus 1.1" of 34° RA. I wondered how the "Temple 1.8 W" cocorahs (noted in Jeff's post of GYX snow reports) could've gotten 3X the snow (26.4" vs 8.8") of the Farmington co-op, just 6-7 miles away. Using Google Earth I followed the only road heading west from the small center of Temple and learned that at 1.8 miles the elevation at the nearest house was about 1220', or 800' higher than the co-op. Given that event's character, the difference suddenly made sense. (And made me jelly!) Of course, yesterday's storm was of entirely different character.

I've known the elevations of all of these people for awhile. They'll report similar water equiv sometimes with 2" more in moderate events to totally skew against everyone else's ratios. There's not a lot of elevation difference around here anyway and I'm not in that much of a low spot for the town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m always hard pressed to call anyone out around here knowing how vastly different the snowfall can be in very short distances, like 1” wouldn’t even be a red flag. But you know your area... heck I’m at a higher elevation than JSpin by 250 feet but 30” behind him and he’s the next town south. But it’s legit. Even if someone two miles from me said they got a couple inches more in a synoptic event I’d believe it, ha. Even in those with strong low level jet there can be decent orographic changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and southeast flow really downsloped that area. Not that it upsloped on the east side but being on the edge of the precip shield AND downsloping really dropped totals off fast east of the Spine... from like 2" to a heavy dusting. We had the worlds smallest flakes yesterday up here... looked like arctic sand type snow you'd get when its -5F but it was actually in the 20s. The squalls this morning probably doubled the "storms" totals, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
