Difference is lift between the NAM and those shorter term mesos. Those shorter mesos just go bonkers. NAM is more subdued. Lots of 33F rain on NAM.
-
12z RAP might have even been more violent than the HRRR. It has like 8-10” of spackle even on kuchera maps. It’s an isothermal blue bomb for pike region over to Scooter and BOS and north to Ray.
-
Let’s get a March 24, 1993 mini blue bomb at Logan (over 8” of pure spackle on a weak but juicy system running into a Quebec high with marginal antecedent airmass)
-
Ray will get 4-5” while everyone else gets slop or nothing and he will declare it the best event since 1/7/24.
-
18z euro starting to show the dendrite-drift on the high middle of next week. That’s gonna be my new term for Quebec highs trying to nose down and ruin torches. It’s the high pressure version of the messenger shuffle. @dendrite gets the honors since his area is usually first on tap to get screwed by these.
-
Yeah that def helps too. We'll see what the real dews do to it early next week.
-
Some guidance had dews well into the 40s today, but I saw lots of 20s and low 30s glancing at the sfc plot this afternoon...so yeah, prob the main reason the shade didn't melt much of anything today.
-
Congrats BOS on borderline warning snowfall on 18z Euro.
-
Lot of dripping in the sun today but kind of shocked at how pathetic it was in the shade (as evidenced by the ice not melting on my walkway in my picture)…I assumed at least my walkway would get cleared regardless of sun exposure.
-
All about the sun…damned walkway is still a sheet of ice where the sun didn’t get to it this afternoon.
-
It has a pretty legit ice storm near the pike and into S NH. Snow north of that.
-
Goofus is frigid....basically a warning snow event for BOS after some sleet. Gets ZR into most of CT
-
The real test is how long does the sun today take to melt off the 1.7" of snow from yesterday evening on top of existing snow.
-
3k NAM near BOS. Mini snow bomb? Lol
-
Yeah it’s gonna take a beating this weekend and early next week. Esp if overnight mins are coming in solidly above freezing. I feel like the damage will be relatively minor until after Friday system passes. Maybe tomorrow gives it a bit of a hit if we can get enough sun and 50s.
-
Is 51 vs 46 really that different? If there’s enough sun and some mixing I bet we’ll spike 50 but if we hang onto low clouds longer and mixing is crap, it could get stuck at like 40-42F in places.
-
Depends on mixing. Ironically a place like BDL is more likely to be stuck in the upper 30s or low 40s than Tolland. There could actually be a mild sea breeze too so Scooter might get shot back into the 30s if that occurs.
-
Account from yore in a 12/16/07 event back then: ”We endured 4 hours of blinding snow in the northeast gale. Up to thy knickers by the finis. The courier was dumbfounded to find a snow tempest in Plymouth MA after riding through heavy ice in Tolland CT.”
-
Looks like pingers about to RT 2 in ORH County and N of the RT 2 further east. About to Lowell now. That was a good event though for Rt 2 and northward....even here overperformed my own expectations.
-
Radar looks good for you and Ray’s area for the next couple hours before you flip. Easily should reach advisory snow totals.
-
Getting pingers now. 1.7” final snow before the flip.
-
Trying to make a run at 2” anyway, won’t quite make it, but for basically 75 minutes of snow, that is solid
-
Ok right on queue…parachutes increasing in size.
-
Just took this…def some aggies in there but it’s not the classic silver dollar parachutes right before you flip I’m sure those are coming soon
-
Looks like we’re maxing out now on the rates. Heavy snow and 28.7F Those yellow echoes from BOS to my hood are all snow right now
