powderfreak Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 12z NAM missed a close in forecast this afternoon. A few miles to the south. GFS and EURO both had a great showing at 12z. Not the NAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Bring 'em down? .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... As of 831 PM EDT Monday...Several additional tweaks needed to crnt fcst which include increasing snowfall amounts acrs central VT into the NEK, lowering hrly temps under the heaviest precip rates and making the required ptype adjustments. Spotters, NWS employees and general public report 1 to 3 inches of snow from the western slopes into portions of central/northern VT, mainly above 800 feet. Have seen an uptick in power outages this evening, along with web cams confirming some slick travel acrs the higher trrn mainly above 1500 feet. As heavy wet snow continues for several more hours, anticipate additional outages acrs central/northern VT into portions of the NEK tonight. Will re-issue sps to cover this potential. Water vapor shows classic backside deformation/commahead appearance in moisture structure, while deepening and closing off 5h/7h circulation shifts from central VT into central Maine. RAP13 shows heaviest precip and best 700 to 500mb forcing lifting from near BTV to MVL to Lyndon thru 03z this evening, before exiting our cwa. This will result in additional snowfall of 1 to 3 inches mainly above 1000 feet for central/northern VT mtns, including the NEK with some localized totals in the 3 to 5 inch range possible by morning. Radar shows back edge of precip slowly approaching the western CPV, so anticipate another couple hours of snowfall acrs the western slopes. Expecting storm total qpf in this axis to range from 0.50 to 1.0 with some localized higher amounts possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Beautiful morning. As much as I want warmer days, you can’t deny the beauty of a snow covered landscape lit up by sunshine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisrotary12 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Were there storms yesterday. Only managed a few sprinkles here. This dud of a weather stretch continues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 I was actually wrong about yesterday too...I had thought any frozen would have been more grauple as opposed to hail given the super low freezing levels. Thought I read stuff years ago which mentioned grauple is more likely when WBZ heights get below a certain level. But perhaps this was off-set by the few hundred J of hail CAPE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
