wxsniss Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Great rain-snow flip story Tip. My fondest memory is still 3/31/97. Awesome storm to track tomorrow. I'm most confident in ORH northeast into NH / ME. Farther west? With this nuking out as quickly as guidance suggests, I'd think western extent of biggest accumulation might not be as far as we'd usually expect from midlevels... Also given how quickly this nukes (and some downstream ridging) I would not be surprised to see a closer track... For Boston metro area / eastern SNE, we were threading the needle of dynamics + temps yesterday with a slightly further eastern track... with these western tics, the 4+ amounts are at risk. Will be extremely close and fun to watch with dynamics, and still think a quick 2-4"/3-6" is possible. Euro has not been jumping around as much as other guidance, let's see...

klw Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 On 12/4/2020 at 5:16 PM, Typhoon Tip said: Yeah...as amazing as that storm was ... and it was multi faceted ( there was a wind damage and a tide problem at shore communities all the way down the Jersey shore/up to eastern Ma and coastal Nh in that too ) it was not a prolifiic snow producer over inland 'shadow' topographies. Someone can probably drub up the snow chart from that - it's a easy google effort no doubt. But the CT River valley and the like, ...I think Springfield Ma only got like 2-4" but that may be just my memory - heh. Meanwhile places like Sutton were up over 30 inches.

Sunday 3/30: 63˚, biking in shorts. Prediction of 10-14 overnight Monday which no one believed. Monday 3/31: 45˚ and raining in the morning 8 SM W of KBOS. Prediction of a flip between 4 and 6. 1030 math class, bored looking out the window at the rain. Look back at the board. Look back out the window and I couldn't see across the field. My middle school math teacher did not care for my weather report. 1400: All after school activities canceled. Our bus driver usually left the door open and had to be woken up when it was time to leave but had to open and close it for everyone getting on to keep the blizzard out of the bus. With all activities canceled, we had about 80 people on the bus, sitting on laps. Barely made it up a couple of hills. No school Tue-Wed, since many streets hadn't been touched.

The morning activities were called off and everyone piled in to go home.
