DeVries Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 For a little while there I was having some doubts about getting to 20", but now I'm feeling pretty good about that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 6.5" here in West Hartford. Epic, epic, epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stellarfun Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Low looks to be going up the CC canal at around 972 millibars. Pressures rising on Long Island. East of the low on the Outer Cape, winds from the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 6.5" here in West Hartford. Epic, epic, epic. What do you think made this storm such a screw-job for CT and parts of Mass? Was it the subsidence on the east side of the NJ/NYC mega-band, drier air to the northwest, or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC48 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Low will head northeast and graze Nantucket. Check Cloud radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 What do you think made this storm such a screw-job for CT and parts of Mass? Was it the subsidence on the east side of the NJ/NYC mega-band, drier air to the northwest, or what? I think it was missing out on the mega frontogenesis northwest of us that really boosted snow west and we were never to get into a good band of lift through the column. If you look at the IR you can see we're just generating a lot of low level junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the IR you can see we're just generating a lot of low level junk. It sounds as if many people were expecting a MECS/HECS and just got a moderate snowfall. I know Matt Crepon in Watertown, CT also said he'd been fringed with this storm. I've had a respectable 12" in Westchester County with some very high winds, but this was more of a NJ storm for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Here on the northwest fringe.... I had 3 inches at 2 AM. More now, but I'm on the laptop in bed in my PJ's so further measurements must wait till dawn. Snowing moderately and blowing and drifting a lot. Occasionally we get a heavy burst. I would guess ALB has 6"+ now and probably pushing 12" in parts of the county east of ALB - Rensselaer 6.5" here in West Hartford. Epic, epic, epic.

I've had a respectable 12" in Westchester County with some very high winds, but this was more of a NJ storm for the most part. Just didn't pan out. I was worried for a lot of C/E Mass last night and everyone laughed at me... but I just didn't like what I was seeing. Sometimes localized mesoscale effects can save the day and other times they can reall F you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I assume the 30"+ in parts of NJ and Central Park possibly pushing 18" by the time it ends makes this a MECS anyway.

mattmfm Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Just gusted to 53mph at Conimicut in Warwick. It's brilliant out there. Now, if only there were two feet of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Looks as though things are finally "building" now. RAD improving. Have about 8", here and snow looks to recommence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmfm Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 06z NAM (lol) drops another 5-8" from this developing band, from PVD-ORH on east.. But then that's it. Deform band out over WNE, as expected, just rots in place and finally exits as nothing more than some light snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inverse of the way it eroded earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
