PhineasC Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Temp has been creeping up here. 32. I assume that will crash back once the low gains more latitude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the temperature of the ice in your margarita on a Florida beach? We've risen a few tenths above freezing now too at 1,500ft. Solar gain is still happening despite the clouds and snow. No real CAA from anywhere, probably dips a bit with sundown in like 7 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 The interior valleys are always death sentence in marginal events with easterly flow.....remember I was saying that I'd rather be in my area, along the interior coastal plane? This is why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Man even a hint of an antecedent airmass and this would have croaked many. Just having 850s below 0C prior to precip would have been enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mob1 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Congrats to everyone seeing snow today, it's always a treat this late in the season. I'll be at Killington Sunday and it looks like they're just about in the heavy deform band, though not much going on just to their west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone under that? 15 miles west of the meat of the band and its ripping here. 33.4F so not super efficient accum. Im sure elevations above 1500' are stacking up.

TheSnowman Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Well this sucks. Only got 0.5” at Most and then melted away. ANOTHER Disgrace of a snowstorm in NE RI. Even Western RI is doing well. Time to do a weenie drive at 2pm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 The size of the flakes under this band are incredible. It’s almost like they’re fluffy but it’s such a wet snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavwtby Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 about 3 here in boxborough, only about a half an inch when I left winsted at 5 this morning...but the drive in, from about belchertown to auburn was a nightmare, then up 495 it wasn't bad, until I got here, then goose feathers put a couple inches down in a matter of less than an hour, just mod flakes now...congrats on those under that band, good April dumping, reminds me of I think 82, or 83, when we got hammered during spring break..

Looks like one of the best events of the season unfolding, as sad as that is. I won't lie, I'm very jealous you are in Florida. Fun event back here but not as much as over that way into NH/ME mtns (or apparently Rhode Island). I'd go beach right now . We've been stuck around like 3" for a while at 1,500ft back this way... snowing steadily but just at like the same intensity as the melting from the wet ground or melting from above. Like watching it snow for the last 3 hours to maintain the depth. Above 2,000ft in this area is where it really ramps up to 6"+ as we didn't have the precip rates. MVL ASOS has been snowing between 0.5 mile and 1.0 mile but at 34F I bet it's not more than a sloppy coating at my house. Radar showing a decent band approaching so maybe we can start to outpace the melt again at 1,500ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuts Yea, like Ginx or someone mentioned, seems to happen in these event where best maybe be 5-10 miles west of the band? I'm sure it's crushing directly under the 30dbz echoes too.

Would've been a monster snowstorm for pretty much all if yesterday morning we had 0C at 850mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
