wxeyeNH Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 4.4F Light snow and some blowing snow. About 2" to 3" What a ride with the models on this one. In my hood every small adjustment changed my snow amounts greatly. It was fun to try to figure out which model run had the most credence. Which one ended up being the best? I guess the GFS was better than the Euro? Thoughts? In any event this storm is an easy cleanup with no wet snow or mix to deal with. Just a regular snowy day for me, nothing out of the ordinary unlike our friends to the southeast. In the end the storm worked out to how I expected it to. Snow of various intensities but I was surprised that the wind was so light all day. The temperature fell all day from 15F at the start of the snow to a low of of 3.7F but now the temperature is actually rising a bit. This was a very cold storm but there was one a few years ago where the temperature was around 0F all day. Now that the visibility has come way up I can look down over Newfound Lake and see that the wind is just howling down the lake creating blowing snow that is hundreds of feet high. I have never seen that but the wind direction must be perfectly lined up with the big lake. I'm always amazed how the settlers in 1795 picked my site to build our house. The wind is so light here while it is howling in all the north facing areas. On to the next event. Seems to be trending colder with a mixed or even an over running ice event. Lots of time for adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmcginvt Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Practically calm in Waterbury Center but definitely blowing in Morrisville. The windsock at KMVL looked cool as I drove by. 29 17:54 N 15 G 31 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Man oh man, just had two back to back gusts that had me moving to the side of the house furthest from the trees. It's just roaring. Cranked up the heat just in case. Overall lame storm but with a sweet grand finale. B- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backedgeapproaching Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Going to be some SNE peeps flying up the snow table standings blowing into top spots, well outside of the top 3 that are locked every year of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot21 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Had 3-4 hours of light snow but I doubt it even got up to an inch accumulation. Could hear trees straining and snapping in this wind. Feels cold out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Realized that today I never turned the heat back up after I got back from skiing, but just keeping my fireplace going has kept the downstairs at 72 and upstairs at 75. I switched supplier and this firewood is incredible. back in weather news, measured 7” an hour ago and it’s intensified again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 Any word from @jculligan? I see Wildcat is reporting a foot. More wind from this this than I have seen in prior storms. The light nature of this snow meant it was easily blown around. I have some interesting drifts and little canyons around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
