Almost a streamer going into the MA/NH border region 

 

 

The ocean effect into the Islands is equally as crazy, ha.  Awesome radar.

Coworker in Barnstead has a large tree that took out powerlines across his driveway and road. Can’t even get his car out until the tree is removed.

Wild for 40s in Maine, mid-20s here, and single digits NYC and sub-zero in PA.

Not something you see often.

Hosting brunch and Christmas dinner tomm. No power. Can’t get the generator to turn over even a bit. I can feel wifeys icey stares as we listen to the wind howl…if you listen closely you can hear the food going bad. Thoughts and prayers pls.

Every time I check the temp it's down 2 degrees 26 now from 52 earlier.

Really impressive stuff. I’d be really happy with single digits tonight.

High of 59.1 and I’m at 17.4 now and dropping. As impressive? Low pressure of 977.1mb earlier today.

Saw that earlier on the models, white Christmas for the Islands and parts of the Cape.

You wonder if this is the new norm

I've lived in Townsend for 35 years and have been at the mercy of drying downsloping events that whole time. This is by far the biggest event of this sort I've experienced - 2.5" so far and still S+. It could be another 35 years before I witness another such event, and of course it was virtually unforecasted. Best Christmas gift ever!

[DavisStraight]

My sister up in Maine near the coast said it's wild up there with trees down and power out. No snow yet though looks like that squall is moving towards her.

Awesome. That’s the best…getting the unexpected white Christmas from a squall that sort of stalled over your area. 
 

Still going too

.23" rain yesterday, 1.95" today for an event total of 2.18".

Currently a nice snow squall and all white... 26.2 off of a high of 54.3.

Rumors of White Christmas’ another 20 years and it will be a summer holiday. 

[weatherwiz]

Shit power flickering and there’s 3 minutes left in the game. Please hold off from going out until then 

[ineedsnow]

Picking back up a little here might break 3

You and I both were overdue for a pleasant surprise such as this.

More or less turning into Horizontal convective rolls allowing them to remain stationary like a LES streamer.

At least it is cold enough you can freeze food outside and refrigerate in a garage or somewhere a bit warmer

Who was the guy on the board who used to take a lot of Maine pictures?  Lighthouses and such. He may have even sold them.

[CoastalWx]

Will be interesting to see how the cape and islands to.

MaineJayHawk… he’s still around often. Best Maine photog I’ve seen.

[radarman]

Almost 3" just along and N of Rt 202 through S Hadley/Granby/Btown.  Maybe a little channeling S of the east/west running Holyoke range?  Only 1.5" at my house, with the streamer slowly sinking south.

[DavisStraight]

There's going to be some cold weather football games tomorrow. Hopefully a snow game.

[CoastalWx]

@OceanStWx what were some of the high end gusts up there?
