    Really fun storm . I figured it would get to Wolcott and Bethany, but not Higganum lol. We had about half as much ice as you did . For anyone that has ice on your trees, you are going to have a loud and wild night and day ahead whenever the wind starts to rip. First hand experience 

    This type of airmass is hard to dislodge in February especially. You’ve had decent cryospheric build-up all winter and now you are gonna try to run this low into Canada…not gonna happen that easily. The little messenger tickles in the secondary reflection weren’t too surprising.

    Man…Freak is posting banks from the front end loaders now to really rub it in. As if the regular ones aren’t big enough.

    You can tell he was just waiting for one of those winters where nothing melts there with tons of upslope while we’re :stein:for long stretches…and then when it does precipitate for us, it’s ptype issues everywhere.

    Euro is an inch here. Hard to even conjure up a scraper. Gotta see start seeing a reversal at 0z or 12z but it ain't looking good attm. 

    [tried to tell em] no not really, a whiff was always on the table 

    Def worth watching down there.

    it's interesting it seems it's been biased SW over interior MA cause we were up to 35, than about hr ago it was 31 out of nowhere.  The rain on the car top and windows is webbed now so we're glazing ...won't last much longer but.  

     

    Def near 495 right now

    Seems like HRRR wants to end much of interior as snow 

    Don’t see it. A few flakes maybe for N ORH County down to NW CT…upslope spots in Berkshires could pick up a bit of accumulation. But really nothing east of those areas. I guess a few flurries later this evening could happen.

    This has to be the first time we had KUs dangled in front of us in the medium range only to have the rug pulled twice in the span of a month.

    2010 was pretty bad for that. We had two busts in Mar 2018 as well but that pattern was so good we scored 2 monsters anyway.

    Been a slow grind south but the CF just slipped through. Probably starts moving a little quicker SE this evening 

    Looks like it’s dropped all the way through pepperell and about to go through Groton in MA.

    Yeah, I remember on my old android phone that could barely load anything, trying to post obs during Earl.  It wasn't that cold so I didn't understand why you were freezing. :D  Earl sucked in FMH, 55mph.  Noel however was really roaring, lots of trees and limbs everywhere and no power.  easily 65-70mph gusts maybe 75

    I think we got a handheld at 65-67ish on the beach at CHH in Noel and that is obviously only 6 feet off ground and not 10m. There were def some hurricane gusts in spots during that. 
     

    Irene was pretty good on the Cape too. Earl was kind of a bust.

    what exactly is the trainwreck north of ME?

    You have some random vorts rotating down east of the block over Hudson Bay. We need that to ease just a touch to allow the huge ULL to amplify the downstream ridging a bit more.

    I remember we were hanging onto that metal post on the beach in the wind 

    Remember all the damage when we drove back to my grandparents house in Yarmouth? It was damage everywhere. Really impressive storm that was. One of the few that lived up to the hype.

    Torch Tiger was there. Or was that Noel?

    Wasn’t Noel. Noel was actually an epic chase. That was almost legit Hurricane conditions at CHH. We found that shit tavern that was open to get inside for cover. You literally couldn’t look into the wind because it was sandblasting everyone…that was despite downpours…wind was so strong it didn’t matter. It couldn’t mat the sound down enough and we’d just get blasted.

    if you met me in person you wouldnt say that usually the life of the party :lol:

    I did meet you in person briefly. Think it was during Earl on the Cape at Chatham light back in 2010? I’m playing around. You’re just a huge weenie.
