    Crushing fatties right now. Prob not for long but it’s accumulating now.
  2. ORH_wxman
    Ripping fatties now. Lift has temporarily washed out warm layer. Starting to stick
  3. ORH_wxman
    Started off as snow here mixed with a bit of sleet. Not typical pellets though…almost like rimed flakes
  4. ORH_wxman
    13th has front end snow too.

    I think we need another good sized snowstorm in the Jan 15-25 period to go into February with a decent chance at an AN snow season. You can sometimes afford to whiff on a decent pattern and still do well overall for the season but that’s usually because you already weaseled a good storm or two in a garbage pattern…but we haven’t done that this winter since we punted December.

    My grandparents had a chestnut tree in their backyard that didn’t succumb to blight until 1994…they had a large open backyard that was cut out of the woods….so I’m guessing the tree being isolated from the rest of the forest probably helped it last as long as it did. Worst thing was stepping on those damned things if you went too close to the tree in your bare feet. Once the spike coverings dried out they turned extremely sharp.

    1/16 actually does look pretty interesting on most guidance. Inhibiting factor right now is lead time but Euro obviously has it, GFS was kind of a close graze at 12z and GGEM was a hit at 12z.

    Yeah that's not right. Maybe he measured where the tide meets the sand?

    If there’s a decent high to the northeast, usually NNE will do well on cutters and sometime SNE gets in on the act. It’s the cutters that have no highs that are destructive to snow pack and that’s what December 18th had and last winter was the year with no highs to our north, lol.

    Flickering hope in SNE. It needs to trend better in the next day or so or it’s junk. It does look decent for NNE. They may actually build a decent pack over the next week since some of the spots are going to get a solid net gainer on 1/10 too even though it eventually flips. Both of those systems would have been nice if they were weak vort maxes but these are both on ‘roids so they are able to overcome some initial confluence.

    Nice fatties falling now but doubt they’ll add much of anything. But good winter feel out there just now with the puffy flakes and snow draped on everything.
  12. ORH_wxman
    Possible but uphill battle. Need to tame that western trough and/or really compress the heights over SE Canada enough to turn it into a SWFE.
  13. ORH_wxman
    Passing 15” on winter hill in ORH.
  14. ORH_wxman
    Just a shade over 9 inches back in Holliston…don’t think we’ll quite make 10” unless that band rotates down and rots over us for an hour or two. Solid storm though to get off the warning mat.
  15. ORH_wxman
    Ray’s area into far Se NH was fairly consistently modeled for the jackpot inside of 60 hours. Nice job by models to pick up that area cleaning up.
  16. ORH_wxman
    13” on winter hill
  17. ORH_wxman
    You should be good for a couple more I’d think.
  18. ORH_wxman
    About an inch in the past 40 min from this stuff. Very high ratio powder compared to the paste last night.
  19. ORH_wxman
    Best snow growth of the storm right now. This is prob line 15 or 20 to 1 fluffer stuff with temp of 24F
  20. ORH_wxman
    Looks like CF is through all of Boston except maybe dorchester now.
  21. ORH_wxman
    Looks like it’s through davis Sq down through Watertown eastern Newton and than bends back a little southwest toward Needham
  22. ORH_wxman
    Yeah perfect setup for him….big snows and then some epic flooding rains.
  23. ORH_wxman
    That 900-950 layer seems to crash pretty good from here on out
  24. ORH_wxman
    Might be pretty good for eastern areas that got a bit skunked last night..esp those areas like 5-10 miles west of water. With CF crashing across 128 now this CCB stuff can accumulate fairly efficiently.

    @moneypitmike will recognize this part of route 9
