katabatic Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Nice front end thump so far. Oscillating between all snow and a 50/50 sleet/snow mix. WSW up for Garrett County but mostly along/east of the divide. I've picked up a quick inch imby as the temp fell from 32 to currently 29.7. Hoping to hang on to this as long as I can before it washes away. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabatic Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Wow. Intense rates of snow continue in MLP. This was not expected in this part of Garrett County. Temp has fallen further to 28.8 with the heavy snow. Since 3:30 AM when it started, we have picked up 4.8 inches so far (accumulating currently 1 1/2 - 2 inches per hour). Waiting for the pingers to start, but knock on wood, none since the precip began. Very small flakes currently although I think some of that is due to the increasing wind (currently out of the ESE at 24-30 MPH). 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. This whole area is being de-conditioned to...actual winter.

87storms Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Clouds following a storm might be the most predictable weather to forecast around here, at least in the cooler months. The day will start out with a period of sun and then the trough moves east and you end up with a stratocumulus cloud deck…or something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 The wave cloud action is interesting, though... https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/sector_band.php?sat=G16§or=ne&band=02&length=12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the smarter folks on here...what causes that? Is that the gravity wave thing factoring in here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the gravity wave thing factoring in here? Yea, they actually mentioned the gravity waves in the LWX disco. I think what happens is we have leftover moisture from these storm systems and the combo of cooler air swinging through the next day and orographic lift causes these types of clouds. I haven't looked up the exact reasons, but it happens a lot in these setups. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleocene Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 do we have a discussion anywhere on solar panels? my new array hit 15kwh generated today (it was installed in december). pretty cool to watch production increase bit by bit as we move away from the solstice. clouds are now my enemy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Got a bike ride in today over at Little Bennett. More muddy than I anticipated. Not the whole trail, but definitely some slick spots. Small streams were visible, too. Gonna be a healthy spring at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
