ORH_wxman Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I dunno... it's a lot of low level stuff. The ripping dendrites are still across western CT/MA. The IR loop is really telling. We don't need cold cloud tops to get good dendritic growth...just lift in the SG region. It has been pretty good snow growth here for awhile and the pic in Boston showed very nice dendrties awhile ago when they had that band over them. That's why often W of the CF gets destroyed, because they get enhanced low level lift in the 750-850mb region which is like -10C...good for snow growth in a higher salt nuclei environment. We won't get the deeper lift that is over the frontogenetic band in E NY and NNJ, but it can still be quite effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Ryan, I measured 3.1 at 8:30. Doubt I even reached 4 yet. Seemingly all snow grain crap. It's like salt blowing around my driveway Yeah eastern areas are really getting screwed with a lot of horrific snow growth. I've been 1/4 mile for hours and am barely accumulating 1" per hour. E/C MA/RI/ E CT are all going to continue to have that problem. The real jackpot in this one is going to be even west of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Looks like another Central CT fail. Dry slotting now will be a miracle to get to 10" Yeah...don't know it's even snowing right now. Can't have more than 5". Might be a bit premature to say it'd be a miracle to get 10".

powderfreak Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Look at that band out in eastern NY. Anyone from Albany in here? Getting crushed right now in eastern NY... confectioner sugar, beautiful dendrites at 15F. This stuff is starting to blow around and I suspect as winds continue to ramp up, we'll see some serious powder drifting. +SN 15F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattdWX Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 bigtime update, we reached 30 in melrose (7 miles north of boston) but we have now been dropping (down to 27). this is a sign that the rain snow line will likely not push any farther inland. We have heavy snow continuing with 1/4 mile vis. We have at least 7-8 inches. The rain snow line i think is crashing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesun Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 So, will the 12-18 verify? Can't see it happening here.

Radders Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Poughkeepsie has been under that band all night long... Somewhere between there, down the lower hudson valley and into northern eastern NJ will bring in the biggest totals.. This is their storm.. Yes, it is unbelievable here near POU.. Closing on 14 inches now and the band just keeps sitting over us.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're accumulating rapidly and 2 hours ago many spotters in Boston reported 6+...I'm probably 7-8 at this point and it's pouring snow with decent dendrites.

CTWeatherFreak Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Yes, it is unbelievable here near POU.. Closing on 14 inches now and the band just keeps sitting over us.. Congrats.. It never fails.. I moved to the west hartford area last december from White Plains and was counting on alot more snow.. After all, this area usually receives a foot more snow each winter on average.. Yet last winter, and so far this storm are showing me that bad luck follows me wherever i go Im sure we'll see ours sooner or later, but this one belongs to you!
