  1. Past hour
  2. Just finished with outside. I shoveled out my downspouts and oil fill area, this stuff ain’t going anywhere with more to come. I really hope we have an easy slow melt when the time comes… I also already benched and moved some of my piles to make room for whatever’s next.
  3. Now what can go wrong, lol. This would be better than march 1980
  4. RDU reported .28 ZR which is totally bogus. I had less than a tenth.
  5. Very, very glad I waited to shovel the snow. Our strategy for moving the glacier was to take a hammer and break the ice crust into very large pieces, and to lift those pieces and toss them aside. It actually worked really well. The sleet crust cleanly separates from the soft snow underneath which was easy to shovel.
  6. Are we in the interesting predicament where the GFS is the only odd person out without this being a hit?
  7. 18.8 and that seems conservative based on everyone clearing their walkways and driveways. There is a shit ton of snow.
  8. I just did spit take drinking my coffee and seeing all of these outputs
  9. Much worse. Very progressive and out to sea. Trough never gets close to neutral and 500mb doesn't close off. Run of the mill weak progressive wave on the ukie
  10. But wait, there's more. We got 1/4" of snow overnight, bringing our total up to 12.0". I feel beat up after yesterday after shoveling ~18" worth of snow (3.5" of sleet has the mass of 10.5" of 10:1 snow and we had 8.3" of snow that was probably about 12:1 or ~7" of 10:1 snow). And driving wise, as I showed last night, driving on sleet is probably worse than on snow as it slides more easily, plus it melts more slowly. My 12.0" is higher than most in my area, but that's because I followed meteorologist Bill Syrett's (from PSU's renowned weather lab) guidance to measure the sleet separately to avoid compaction (would've been 11.0" just measuring depth); until this storm I've been lower than folks in Metuchen and Edison this winter.https://theconversation.com/how-is-...-how-volunteers-tally-up-winter-storms-175628
  11. where you been bro, you don't post on the main threads anymore
  12. I still think there are others on that map that are questionable, maybe not. I'd have to believe the CoCoRaHS folks know what they are doing.
  13. Yeah... it would be. 1kt to 1mb conversion suggests that 73kt sustained middle BL flow into coastal Maine all the way down... It's just one solution. We don't need hyper bombs to get the point across here. I will say though ... I'm not surprised we are seeing these solution ..erupting - for lack of better word - out of the canvas given to the way the indexes have been ... anyway, I figure we are watching for this still.
  14. Yes. While we were getting shellacked, the Canadian came in with 5" - 10" at 12z and we all laughed. Then the Euro came in with 15" - 20" and suddenly we knew something special was happening. There was a last minute bump north, but that was mostly because the block was decaying and it allowed for more poleward movement at 500 mb. We do not appear to have such a scenario this time around. It's a healthy block.
  15. LFG! Makes me feel like I'm 15 again. Snowpack for weeks and weeks
  16. Geniunely don't know how they make forecasts. A pure copy and paste of the fucking GFS would be better than what it was printing.
  17. 12z GFS is very close to being an epic blizzard but still just a little too far east. Not a bad place to be at this time .
  18. That was about a 300 mile NW shift by the Canadian.
  19. Just picked up another half inch of fluff, bringing my storm total to 14.6". The sun is shining through now and really making everything glisten. 43.9" on the season now. Hopefully the road to 100 comes into clearer view next weekend
  20. Energy doesn’t sync up and it quickly scoots of to our east it doesn’t really have a storm for anyone
  21. UK a later phase and we get an inch or two out of the northern stream energy but the rest slides off the coast
