Damage In Tolland Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Snow bordering on heavy. Great flakes. Edit: border cross. S+ You look like you'll easily get 3-4 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Good luck to those up north, radar says this is a no show on the south coast. CNE and NNE should do well, enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 KCEF reported a reading of -14 at 5am. At 2pm the reading is 25. So in other words the temp has risen 39 degrees in 9 hours there. Just asking does that seem a little bit suspect ? No... that sounds about right in a strong radiational cooling pattern. There was one day in late October or early November where Saranac Lake (SLK) in the Adirondacks rose exactly 40 degrees in 5 hours between 7am and noon.

powderfreak Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Radar looks really good for the ALB-DDH-FIT/MHT corridor... I could see this one making it over the mountains and its high ratio fluff. I bet someone in that area sees 3-4" where BOX has a forecast of less than 1". MPM looks to be about the jackpot for this, aside from places like Woodford at 2,000ft in Bennington County, VT. Up north here, I've got an inch so far and steady light snow continues.

OKpowdah Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Precip shield transforming into distinct squall lines, probably with decent vertical velocity couplets, albeit weak.

I have decent elevation that might be helping out a little I'm only about 7 mi. W of the River with steady snow and .5" down while RadarMan down in Northampton is only seeing flurries.

That;ll be cool. Right on that cusp level of "do I clear it from the drive or just let it sit". Tough call. Guess I can see what the 12z runs look like tomorrow.

Guess I can see what the 12z runs look like tomorrow. If it's going to be more wet than wintry, screw it. What are you expectiv up there? My point forecast had 1-2" today (and actual was 1") and then another few inches tonight. If I had a gun to my head I bet we end up with around 3". It all depends on how much upslope response we get behind the clipper... models are showing some residual moisture getting wrung out on a NW flow, so my thoughts were around 2" from actual clipper then another 1-2" from upslope flow. Upper elevations of Mansfield (top 1-1,500ft; above 3,000ft) might see up to 5" of airy fluff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd hate to have an icy mess there if Wednesday turns out more frozen. Rev would love it, most sane people wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
