CoastalWx Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Fluff is fun for about 30 min after it falls, and then you get aggravated by how it compacts. That’s why Jspin gets 160” a year with a constant 8” pack. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why Jspin gets 160” a year with a constant 8” pack. But what if the fluff kept falling? That’s the key. Like today you get another 3”, then wait a couple days and get 3-5”, etc. If Tippy’s dopamine drip continues, you don’t notice the settling lol. Its totally different from a single fluff event in urban areas IMO. But we know where everyone stands lol. If you are going to get one in a month, make it wet I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have a different opinion if it kept falling. It was more to make a joke. I knew it would fire up the upslope community. Lol. My snow is rather fluffy, but was wetter than the champagne stuff some had. It compacted a bit, but not to the extent the champagne stuff does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the debate because I do truly enjoy the fluff. Sitting stacked nicely on the tree branches this morning. Just straight up. But when I was growing up in ALB and never knew when the next flakes might fall, bring wet paste and give me suburban snowbanks lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacked up nicely as you said. Probably first time in 3 years I could measure on the car roof and be confident lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to stay inside curled up in a warm ball in bed but chicken duties call. Looks like a pretty cold stretch potentially with multiple strong cold shots being modeled with H5 support. It’s going to be a long month if it ends up cold and mostly dry. Are you feeling any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m noticing a significant variability in the 1.5 mile drive from Cohasset to Hingham. One of my boys has a hoops game in South Hingham later this am. Curious to see the difference in depth.

They may be similar because latitude mattered with the initial band. So it might be drier there, but in actuality less snow may have fallen. I saw 7” downtown Hingham? That seems awfully low, though it is at the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe an outside chance at something Thursday/Thursday night too. Some of the guidance actually had a storm offshore but the onshore flow was causing OES on the south shore…Ray might want to fire up a blog post about that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEX numbers are 0F+ for LCI and CON, but I think I’d undercut that. I’d assume Jan 19 was the last time you were well below 0F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
