wxeyeNH Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 Yesterday's Euro was way west with rain. Today's Euro was 30" of snow. 18Z GFS is a total miss. I'm glad I'm not an on air Met trying to narrow this down. Just sitting back and watching. Quick snow shower left a coating of snow a bit earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Pretty decent squall line just hit the mountain. Looks like a quick 1-2" so far on the snow cam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STILL N OF PIKE Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Had snow/sleet/Guapal in Merrimack nh for a nice 20 min around 330. I was taking a walk w a woman and she just got a photo message from her husband (He’s in NW mass working and it was legit snow storm looking photo with at least 2” on ground) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 J.Spin has to be getting crushed by this squall. 30dbz over him right there at I-89 and the county line. That usually corresponds to 1-2"/hr rates at least, just depends on how long it lingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was snowing fairly heavily there for a bit, it was that crazy sort of snow with a mixture of different flake sizes and descent rates where it seems like you’re getting snowfall that is from multiple sources/levels in the atmosphere. It didn’t last all that long, but it did put down the quick half inch that we picked up. After a lull for a while, there’s actually a bit more moisture coming into the area on the radar, but the snowfall is fairly light an nothing as potent as that earlier passage.

The snow board here was 1/4” but a mix of grauple balls and flakes of varying sizes. Some big fat dendrites did help tick accumulation up but for the most part it was sub-optimal flakes. Looks like it's nearing 2" at 3,000ft and above. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#NoPoles Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 @powderfreak. What's the temp/dp threshold to make snow? Bretton Woods hasn't fired the guns back up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hum, don't like the look of this storm. Mid to even upper 30's Saturday AM dropping to 32/33F for much of the storm. Another birch bender like 2 years ago. Did a lot of tree damage and power problems at my 1100 foot level. Could this be a repeat? We can start locking in a path after the 12Z Euro. Time to get gas for the genny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need some cold snap to start frezing the grounds and ponds. For snowmobiling, getting a bunch of sn before that makes for a sloppy mess on the trails.

PhineasC Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Could be a NNE forum divider for sure, although Maine needs this one. I could end up on the outside looking in if this keeps sliding east. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
