powderfreak Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 42 minutes ago, OceanStWx said: Stringing things out is definitely a problem, we need the rates for something special below 1000 ft. But the HRRR tends to be a little too warm in the boundary layer, so likely has trouble producing snow. Yeah I think for even 1000ft you would want 0.5”< QPF in a 6-hr period to have a shot at high end advisory snows.... I think you’ll have to go to the 1500-2000ft+ mid-slope elevations to get like 0.05”/hr rates to work. But yeah for any shot under 1000ft someone better be putting at least 0.10” per hour through the tipper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Mitch to Monads ...WCB could have some nice elevation snows even in southern (CNE) elevated areas ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I should because I just updated the forecast to increase amounts there. The consistently dry layer lingering around the DGZ is problematic though, because that will hurt rates. I would like to see some hi-res guidance spitting out 1"/hr, but I'm really not seeing it. That's why I think elevation may have to drive things more.

OceanSt, how come you didn't go with a WWA for Grafton County NH? Lots of elevated areas. Most of the population is on the east side of the county.

I was cleaning brush along our wall and in front of his driveway yesterday and could see through the woods they were in the yard. I just hesitate to be too neighborly and walking up the driveway to say hi or to ask Matt what he thinks. So he’s a family man now eh? Hopefully a few inches for you. It’s definitely more strung out, unfortunately. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the mid shift's call not mine, but sometimes we don't sample above certain elevations on purpose so as to not skew averages over a zone. Likewise having more CT River elevations can skew us away from impactful amounts of snow where people live. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That WCB is really going to town West of Albany Was surprised to see some snow on cams around and over 2K SW of ALB already i wonder how that will translate E / NE as far as holding together and rates lots of 33’s around 1800-2k on W U sites in middle of day out there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm expecting the bulk of that to slide across my higher terrain areas, but I'm not sure my coast can get into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 Nam really cuts back qpf here. Very little happens this evening on this run. Every model run is so different. Dews sure dropped 48.7/18. Noticing visibility well to my SW is dropping. Kearsarge and closer ridge lines still below virga levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
