Yea, I'm not sure what elevation he was referring to. Any real elevation (2K+) would mostly be near 30" or higher going up in elevation I think like you said. Lower elevation sites throughout VT, yes, that is more comparable and higher in NJ than some of the VT spots.
-
Yea, I mean they just had 3ft. Here is this morning. There is only 1 station that had more than me as of this morning. I guess they added some today? I didn't follow closely down there.
-
Well, coastal was a dud here. Only .7" Have to rely on some bread and butter I guess. Some pre cold front lift producing some huge flakes now.
-
This is the first event in a long while here that has had hideous snow growth.
-
And yes PF, depth isn't outrageous here either(18") but everything is stacked so nicely with with most events being no wind and nice snow growth.
-
Yea, true, peak climo for I-95 crew. Moose Farts and Trout burps can keep the winter vibe going in Northern greens and over to Phin/Alex and to a lesser extent even here, but the Gene/dendrite/dryslot areas need some well placed shortwave. I'm sure we will get some synoptic events also, hopefully not a 09-10 suppression for the next weeks.
-
Yep, hate to see it. Phin gets his cold air and suppression. Obviously day 7 jacks will fluctuate, but verbatim its -5F here while DC is S+.

Quick Hitter Obs/Nowcast, Feb 7-8th

You must be in between some areas of forcing because its been snowing here for about 1 hour. 25F with SN. -
GFS went south a bit on the 2/12 event. Also went south on the Tuesday wave also. Not liking those trends--but it is the GFS.
-
That day 5 system could still trend back north a bit--wouldn't take much. Trying to get your -30F fix I see...lol
-
Airmass certainly looks OK--Its in the single digits most places north of the Pike at the start of the precip on that day 7 Euro prog...lol
-
GFS and Canadian have lots of chances moving forward next few weeks even if this one misses NNE. Pattern looks nice--serious Midwest cold dump too.
-
Baby steps, but like Dendrite said in his melt last night--these type of systems have happened ALOT over the past 10 years plus. SNE gets crushed and the NW crew looks at artic sand on the fringe. Amazing how many 12" storms they have had down there considering their average snowfall, guess that's how they get to climo though. Certainly not bread and butter.
-
I mean its' still 48ish hrs from the event, maybe a few more bumps NW or maybe it clips the Cranberry bogs--certainly been bouncing around on the models. Tuesday looks more interesting at this point in time.
-
Seasonal NW trend continue for Sunday? We always have the SREFs and RPM--what could go wrong?
-
Even here ALY wording was "snow showers" with less than 1" accum. Picked up 1" in 30-40 mins little earlier, about 2.5" new.
-
Getting some mod to almost S+ snow at times. ALY Disco mentioned "light dustings". Looks like 1.5" on the board. Temp rising up to 29F now--getting pasty.
-
2" new. Prob like 50:1, pretty much translucent. Had some really nice dendrites for a while. Some -SN now.
-
Finally got some moisture coming in down here also. 25F with some -SN. Need Mr Froude to share his number as flow looks pretty blocked along the Taconics. Rensselear plateau special.
-
Yea, the storm never actually passed like normal. The ULL is just sitting and spinning over SNE-normally the storms are strengthening at this latitude and then moving up into Eastern Canada somewhere allowing the backside Upslope on NW or N winds. This thing is just sitting and rotting over us. You can see those bands out in CNY, they have been there for like 24 hours. Some spots got 12-18" just last night.
-
He's been here long enough now. Its pure greed. He's just honest about it, the NNE version of Ray..lol
-
Yep, Schoharie County west of ALB, 16-24" from this one and around 30" from DEC.
-
Right, thats what I was thinking the main issue would be kids school. Awesome experience this winter though that they can have as a lasting memory.
-
Not sure about NY state, but in VT most spots were 8-12" in this event. So no outrageous totals. Yes, I'm around 85" which is the most I've had at this point in any winter season.
-
Are you (also BWT3650) going to try to come up north full time moving forward in winters? Going to be hell to be stuck back in the mid atl for subsequent winters if not...lol.
