9" measured on elevated surfaces within 24 hours is a solid snowfall (1-1.5" before the flip). Closing in on a half inch per hour average over an entire calendar day. That's a good shot of snow for the northern Greens as the trough moves through.

That makes total sense too... probably a tenth of an inch of liquid or so ahead of Mansfield. With these good ratios, 2-3" storm total increase makes sense. Say a 9" vs 12" event. This was 5pm at 1,500ft.

Agreed. The default is certainly more progressive... it has to work to amplify, like all systems do. It's why we know the Messenger ticks are a thing. It's probably a more SNE/CNE event rather than NNE.

Still cranking away. Storm total is what's on the stack plus 1-1.5" that was there between 5-6am before the board flipped. The base area probably is only an inch behind or so.

Blizzard conditions at times this evening.

Ha it was in jest as a joke. Personally, I want it over like metro-west of BOS, lol. I feel like it’s my duty as a white walker north of the wall for a comment here and there… but in reality it is nice to see enthusiasm and hope again on the forum. It feels a bit like the old days on here for the past 48 hours or so.

That’s one helluva band right through ALB airport area.

Ugh.

Yup, it was 3” in 24 when I posted that. Two hours later it’s 5”. Really not much difference between 1,500ft and 3,000+ feet. 1” last night and 4” since 6am.

4” overnight plus today up there? Must be a sweet powder day. Its been snowing for a couple hours (1”/hr) and about 2” new today after 1” overnight. This is accumulations since about 9-10am in the base area.

It must be, only does it during standard time. Unlikely to show feet of snow during daylight savings time.

I couldn’t resist . It was either that or post something about how that run is suppressed. I’ll go back to watching from a distance and come back on Sunday when it starts to unravel again.

Meh, need more amp than that.

We just don’t know. Could be lower.

180 hours out. Unlikely as modeled but the chances will be there as the seasonal baroclinic zone sags south in the means.
