You’ll still have a shot at 20 this afternoon/evening. At least unlike bigger coastal storms, there weren’t a lot of notable subby zones in this. If you got enhancement, it wasn’t at the expense of your neighbors this time around.
-
I’d be shocked if you didn’t grab at least 2”. Could be 3-5” if you get into some nice fluff bands this evening. IVT seems to enhance the dPVA snows as they hit eastern areas after 21z.
-
Cape Ann with a lot of 20-burgers. What a great storm for them. Not sure there had been a place more screwed in SNE over the past 5 years than Cape Ann area….and that might include Scooter’s area. They should grab several more later too.
-
14z HRRR drops a quarter inch of QPF today over eastern zones. 12z NAM not quite as enthused
-
15.8" "new" storm depth (that is not including the few inches still OTG from last week)....18.1" total for the storm clearing every 6 hours. Hoping to grab a couple today to make it a 20 burger
-
That mini dryslot filled in quick for eastern areas. Crazy how just when it was lightening up, now it’s completely choking flakes again. This has been a really fun storm.
-
This is the best snow here in hours. We weren’t even necessarily getting better returns than the last few hours but the dryslot approaching is probably helping.
-
Snow growth has improved considerably closer to the dryslot. Absolutely choking flakes right now
-
Yeah you can kind of extrapolate where the pellet line is based on the cape and RI. Looks right through plymouth.
-
Didn’t melt anything down but it’s prob around 13 to 1 or so. We had some great ratios earlier in the afternoon but recently it’s been baking powder.
-
We’ve had pretty bad snow growth since about 6….but it’s been absolutely puking snow so it’s still piling up quickly. CF is knocking on the door but no change in snow growth yet.
-
Prob around 11” or so
-
You know it’s a good airmass when ACK is gusting over 40 knots out of the east but they have S+ at 27F.
-
Just measured for real. 9.4” as of 5-6 min ago.
-
Extremely low vis in this stuff. Snow growth isn’t amazing but it’s decent. It’s just puking though
-
You lost your more stable BL when the CF went through.
-
Prob 1/8th vis now. Eyeballing 8” or so.
-
Getting destroyed right now.
-
My buddy in Stonybrook is pelting pellets.
-
Closing in on 6” eyeballing it against last measurement of 3”.
-
It’s not very often you cannot see any dryslot yet when zoomed out on the NY State radar view
-
Incoming with another very intense band
-
This is probably the best radar I’ve ever seen that wasn’t a coastal…and even with the coastals, prob only a few would surpass this look…your firehose type events or maybe just incredible intensity in a large CCB like Feb 2013.
-
There we go. That’s 2008 style right there. That’s gonna really suck too since it’s cold behind this storm. Lot of people without heat.
-
Pingers trying to reach NYC now.
