radiator Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Power outages starting to ramp up in CT. Still near 0 for UI, but CL&P is up to 1,582, mostly in the Eastern portion of the state... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 The problem is/was ...and this goes for a lot of Mets as well, they are on autopilot with their assumptions about the models when the reality is, one needs to pick and choose what situations what tool is going to be better for. You don't send a plumber to a seamstress convention - 4 days ago I hammered out all the reasons why the NAM would be superior for this type of meso-beta scaled scenario, leveraging in not just model type but in situ environmental conditions too. Then, ensuing days and threads went by - I didn't sense that folks either understood what I was talking about, or ignored perhaps. I don't know. But no one has any excuse as far as I am concerned because it was written on the wall back then and is verifying rather nicely. I do, however, think that while the NAM will have embarrassed the GFS's SE low track (up until the last minute, too) the QPF on the NAM may bust a little high. That is okay, because the other parameters are nailed so tightly. We'll have to see how that goes in the end. Ayer, snow now up to the top of the tire wells of my car. Bluish tint to the air in snow mist and snow. 1/3 mil vis. 27F. S/S+ LOL, who ignored you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 No reports from Dave...Hopefully he at least got 9"... Hi... 10" so far... hoping for another 2-4"... What have you gotten so far? Wondering where the jackpot will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 So...will this be a KU? Yes. NYC had 9.1 as of 7...probably close to final but CT burbs are closing in on 2 feet. BDL/PVD/BOS should be a foot or more by the time it's over. PWM/BGR/CON/ASH/EEN/ORH all getting a great dump seals the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaineJayhawk Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Ray, you promised me 30"... about 10" out there now... not coming down as hard as earlier. Really high ratio stuff. Wind has made big drifts. Waaayyyy better than Boxing Day debacle For sure on that. It was my only decent event of the year but it was a suckjob in that I had 12-18 forecast. This? Kicks ass.

Alpha5 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Hard to measure with the 7" on the ground prior to the storm. Goes into the books as 14.5" here Not a bad storm, and 14.5 in basically a 8 hour period is not bad at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semper911 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wish I had a wx station, but here are my obs from Woonsocket: Everything plastered, the row of pines in my backyard look like a cathedral, blasting gusts in the last few minutes, sky still dumping snow, and I'll guess around a foot on the ground so far. And the radar is still being good to me. Heavy, heavy happiness here in N. RI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambone Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wow, just took a peek at the thermometer. It was at 31.8 at around 5 AM now down to 27.8 In the time it took to post this it dropped to 27.6 13", flakes are smaller now moderate snow.

Sn0waddict Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 What a storm. Can't believe I had that band sit over me for all those hours. I guess I'll just go to sleep now, best of luck to the rest of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Hoping to break 18" here...but not sure we can make it like the snow hounds in SW CT. Got 13.7" now...but the bands are becoming a bit more erratic...but we still have a few hours to go to see what this final CCB might do...maybe this final fireworks show I predicted will never happen either.
