ORH_wxman

About 14” on winter hill so far. But man, literally about 5 miles northwest where they weren’t flirting as close with the 0C line at 925 overnight, they have 20-24” (and then another 10 miles further north is where the 30 burgers might happen) There was both an elevation gradient and a geographical one around the city of Worcester because that 925-950 0C line was almost overhead for about 6-8 straight hours last night.

Well I can sympathize with Don…tracking is fun so far as you actually cash in on a couple of them. You expect many to miss…that’s fine, but you except at least one or two to get you This winter has just been like a baseball player in a 0 for 33 slump or something. You expect at least a few hits to drop in out of shear luck when you are in interior CT, even in the valley. There’s a reason the average is almost 50” there. So when you reach a point where you have tracked your 15th failure in a row, it can start wearing on you. That said, we all know if the threat starts looking really nice inside of 4 days, we can’t resist. It’s why we are here. We all have a sickness for this.

Incoming for ORH county (and metro west)

Closer to BOS should start finally getting some measurable over the next few hours

Stuff getting more organized now. Hopefully we can rip for a few hours

Yes. Esp in lower elevations. They would’ve been horrible though in the hills and mountains. I think a lot of them had like 8-12” in N ORH hills and many of them pushing 2+ feet.

Things starting to fill in again

ORH already beat that in 2015 too. Not sure why that isn’t in the NCEI database. What a disaster that data set is.

Yeah something’s weird with that number. I know for a fact that ORH had 31.9” on January 27, 2015 alone (34.5” storm total)

There will be some accumulating snow into BOS later imho. It won’t be 6” but sun is going down when that stuff rotates down and it could be moderate to b briefly heavy. Could be a couple inches from that.

Should start filling in over the next 60-90 minutes if the short term mesos have any clue (and to be fair, they’ve been pretty bad).

Firehose out of east will def cease pretty soon and we’ll see more ML type stuff fill in. I think we’ll see some pretty good bands redevelop.

Pure grease on winter hill

Yes it is all snow in Holliston. Snow line is clearly down to about Medway right now where those 33s meet the 36s and 37s

Prob not too much further north for dryslot as it is pivoting. Just a firehose for metrowest right now and up into Ray’s hood

I wonder if we can get a clap of thunder for metrowest given that they flirt with the edge of the dryslot. More unstable near the edge there.

Gives another inch of QPF after 11am for ORH eastward down into N half of RI. Southern part gets over a half inch but has to wait for dryslot to sink south.

495 belt is playing catch-up right now with this stuff. That is just a firehose of poundage

Yeah you can see the dryslot pivoting in RI now

Yep…7.5” now on winter hill btw. Absolutely pounded this morning…3” on the clear area from 8am

What a firehose

Yeah and it’s prob really notable down in ORH where the snow was really marginal for much of overnight.

What’s your elevation? There’s about 4.5” on top of winter hill.

Pounding fatties on winter hill in ORH.

You may be as close to a lock for a 30 burger as one can get in a storm. At least 2 feet anyway.
