mayjawintastawm Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 Dang, we have friends in Moorpark, only a few miles away, fortunately more or less upwind though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 I've got a report of 14" just south and 12" just east. 10-12 seems right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted November 7 Author Share Posted November 7 Yes, we got another 1.8" for a total of an even 10", and the band just south and east did not hit us, so those reports seem solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 Interesting coincidence at this time of year, early November. It's not exactly an analog, well, not 100% match by any means. There was a deep trough in AZ/NM that created a heavy snow storm for the Plains in 1991. It was coincident to the Perfect Storm. It's partially because the Perfect Storm blocked up the ridge in the east. There was 10"-20" by Pueblo and Trinidad. The snow continued up the Plains with, I believe, 15-30" by Duluth, Minnesota. Maybe Mayjawintastawm actually was in Massachusetts for the Perfect Storm's waves. Maybe you saw George Clooney sail out on the Andrea Gail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 First round of snow seems to have come to an end. I wouldn't be surprised to see my totals be in the mid to upper teens. Then more again of course tomorrow afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted November 8 Share Posted November 8 Several days ago I just couldn’t believe the QPF that the euro was showing. It looks like it largely nailed it…but having only scored about 3” up here, I am indeed rather jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an overnight ED shift in Philadelphia where I was a resident, and so had the day to sightsee before I went to work. The surge on Long Beach Island was something I didn't anticipate and nearly trapped me and my car- was able to drive through hubcap deep seawater and get onto the bridge home with probably less than an hour to spare. That was almost a GIANT oops.... but got some fantastic pictures. I should have known to get out of there when the only vehicles around were news trucks...

Chinook Posted November 9 Share Posted November 9 downtown Denver and Colorado Springs and Fall River Road/RMNP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted November 9 Share Posted November 9 This is epic. The great storm of December 1st-5th 1913 had over 40" in Denver and this says 38" east of Denver. By the way I did a quick check of the biggest snowstorm in Colorado Springs (Airport) in modern times and it was something like 19.5 in October 1997. (1997-1998 El Nino) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Looks like 32-34" for my back yard based on area reports. I flew out of town Friday morning. Took off 2 hours late due to various delays and an insane 45 minute deicing process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never had heavy snow, just almost continuous x 84 hours to get to our 22.4". There was at least one band just east of Parker that you probably got into.

mayjawintastawm Posted 21 hours ago Author Share Posted 21 hours ago 18 hours ago, Chinook said: blizzard warnings, hurricane force wind warning offshore, high wind warnings And a Red Flag Warning for the entire state of Massachusetts. I spent over 30 years there, and fire danger in November wasn't ever a thing, even remotely. November has always been a time of cold drizzle and depression from lack of sunlight, for the most part.

Chinook Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago Sea-Tac had 55mph wind gusts from the ESE, and I have heard 500000 are without power around Seattle with similar circumstances with some easterly downslope winds. I've never seen a low pressure get down to 945mb so quickly unless it was a hurricane, I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
