Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Come on...messenger posted for the past 2 days why we should follow the globals and bashing the BAM. Did you miss that? Granted I don't know there were many others...people were just playing it safe considering the amped solutions the NAM was offering. The nam sucked too last night. Temp profiles were awful so let's not say it nailed it. So did yesterday's mm5 which couldn't place the low within 100 miles. Go look. I was wrong on the track, but has anyone seen a widespread 2-3" qpf yet through the entirety of ct/w MA like the nam had? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sankaty Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 16" new. It's slowed down a little, but looks to pick up again when the band to our west moves in. The picture of the deck includes 4-5 inches of snow already on the ground, obviously. We probably have a total snow depth of 20" or so. Ryan was right, the valley can rack up the big totals! Hope is restored for future storms. Rock on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostonseminole Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Now is not the time to argue about the models...let's enjoy the snow. +100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Cornelius Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 That happens sometime sin strong nor easters due to downslope....but usually the affect isn't that insane. But this storm was a good setup for a W ORH hills screw job. Its not over yet though. When winds go NW if there is still synoptic precip around, you might pick up another 3" in a band while I pick up a half inch. Ya, that's my fear more often than not lately. It just seems like we've been in the screw zone more often than not the past couple of storms...like the CT valley screwzone is expanding its' borders east. Oh well, still nice to wake up with 9.5" after going to bed around midnight without the first flake even flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collinsville Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 what do you have now? We didn't pick up much from 530-8 either here in Southington. Maybe an inch or two? 12.5" or so at 8:00 AM but right now its 1/8 mile SN+, jesus its ripping all the sudden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeVries Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Yeah, but BDL will end up adding 10" at the end BDL's total shouldn't be too crazy because there was little snow before midnight. They get confused when it's a true two-day event and add pre-midnight totals to the overall final from the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteOut56 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 It's still pouring snow in MBY in ORH. Now that I get a chance to survey the "damage" in daylight we have more on the ground than I first thought. I'll go out to measure once it winds down, but I'd guestimate 15" right now. The ONLY thing holding this back from being an all-time classic is duration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
