George001 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Most of the accumulating snow in eastern mass is supposed to be tonight. I’m not giving up yet though I will admit things don’t look great right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn’t much accumulation forecast prior to 18z (1-2” range for your area). The forecast still has 5-7” left, so you’ve really just lost the high end amount at this point. Chris the comment in the GYX discussion about 600' being the key elevation was right on target. My house is at 625. We had 8" about an hour ago. We have a 1500' driveway and it is about 525 at the bottom. There was an inch less at the bottom. Drove down our road towards the main road (King St.) in Boscawen and as I descended through 400' it was mostly wet slush and maybe 3". Friends in Canterbury were at 3" and were shocked to hear we had 8. Our trees are caked dangerously and they had no issue in their woods. Remarkable local differences.

Light-moderate with wet streets. Power out where he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally the dim sun is gone and light snow about 3/4 vis. Actually as I type I just ticked to 33.0F as the snow is picking up. Radar looks good for us as everything rotates in from the east. Interestingly the wind was really blowing this morning but has really calmed down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a really strong elevation signal on guidance leading up to this. That seems like it’s mostly going to be on track. Lower elevation is running into trouble because models struggle to really hammer ratios down. I’m probably like 5:1, and there’s no model out there that will incorporate that as part of their forecast. Cobb can do a fair job, has PWM around 5-7:1 the rest of the event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 There will be some accumulating snow into BOS later imho. It won’t be 6” but sun is going down when that stuff rotates down and it could be moderate to b briefly heavy. Could be a couple inches from that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb can do a fair job, has PWM around 5-7:1 the rest of the event. we've transitioned to that fun kinda snow, with small flakes, blowing almost vertically....I guess 1-2/hour? It is drier and this has helped some of the hardwoods shed snow but the pines are still somewhat loaded. If we get much windier and if the intensity continues, we could get near blizzard conditions.

Yeah when using cobb method on bufkit, majority of the ratios were within the 6-7:1 range. This is exactly why the snow maps are garbage. I get they're useful in they can really help pin down where the gradients will be and max/min's. Maybe keep the maps but remove legends and values hahaha.

I know some seemed bummed b/c the storm didn't "bomb" out as shown, but that's probably a good thing...delay the occlusion and keep the moisture inflow alive, even if it's on life support.

I mean I was originally thinking (Saturday) like 8+ inches here then kind of lowered hope once the screwzone signal became more apparent. And then it got to a point to where I had zero clue what to expect...I literally went to bed last night expecting perhaps nothing. But I woke up and was very happy.

That nice green lobe south of Fundy has some NW in its track (at present) but everything west of there seems to run WNW by W and would stay to our south. Edit: And we're more than 200 feet lower than the key elev, though I don't think Mile Hill at 800' has done any better so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
