16.8'' for an 830pm report out of west hartford vt, 20 minutes from me. I think I'm a little under that, estimating roughly 15'' or so.
-
If they factor in non Northeastern states it may border 5. Estimated damages were in the 100 billion range, over 1 million without power.
-
Wow, massive hit
-
Light snow still ongoing. Haven't checked how much has fallen since 2pm but I anticipate a few inches as my car is covered yet again :/. I imagine we are somewhere near the 14'' mark.
-
Big aggregated dendrites, moderate snow in lebanon. As usual, the radar is not picking this up lol.
-
Moderate to heavy snow, large dendrites in Lebanon.
-
Light to moderate snow Lebanon, ~8-9'' on the ground in 3 places. Looks like near a 10:1 ratio assuming we got modeled level of precipitation - 0.8-0.9. I imagine possibly another inch or two over the course of the day to bring our total close to 10''.
-
Snow intensified quite a bit since I last checked.
-
Measured ~6-6.5'' in 2 places, there may be some compaction but overall this is less than I imagined it would be. Still snowing at a moderate pace, 4F.
-
Such an impressive swath of impact.

I was wondering if someone with more knowledge could help me understand the soundings and non-optimal snow growth we're seeing. Looking at the observed 0z Monday sounding for GYX that just came out, it looks like the most saturated parts of the column are in the DGZ, but the saturation is incomplete. I'm wondering we have the right temps here but the reason we're seeing finer powder / plates instead of large dendrites is the lack of saturation. Am I understanding this correctly?
-
There's a snow spotter report of ~5.5'' from 430pm. Looks like they're doing fine.
-
~5'' in Lebanon. Small, sparkly dendrites + finer powder.
-
Dendrites and fine powder with the 15-20 dbz returns here in Lebanon. 1F
-
First flakes hit lebanon maybe 20 minutes ago. 1F
-
Still dry in Leb with light echoes overhead, humidity ~50%; 2F.
-
2F in Leb with atmosphere slowly saturating. Looks like the QPF consensus is ~0.9 or so, very excited for the fluff en route!

Rise of the Machines: January 18-19 Winter Storm Obs Thread
Dalfy replied to WxWatcher007's topic in New England
Started snowing lightly in lebanon perhaps an hour ago. Dusting on my car thus far, very fine powder. 30 F -
My bad, haha. Well here's to a really generous pattern after the upcoming warm-up.
-
28F, and moderate snow here in Lebanon, very excited for the 2'' padding. Having lived most of my life south of 40 N it's nice to not have to sweat over the r/s line for once.
-
Yea our snow climo is not so good. Storms usually get suppressed south [N Arkansas and missouri bootleg] or miss us north [NE MO cashes].
-
St. Louis finally cashing in on a >1'' event lol. .18'' rain equivalent has fallen as of 12:51, I'd garner 2-3'' on the ground with maybe 2 hours to go. Rates have been really good [~1''/hr in the last hour] and we've had a few reports of thundersnow in south city. Temp is 31, wind steady 16 with 20 gusts. Trying to enjoy this assuming it may be the last full snow storm of the year in our parts.
-
Thick glaze over everything in St. Louis, temperatures are now right around the freezing mark. Per NWS airport obs, we have ~.15 of precip that's fallen.

Did Someone Say Clipper(Hybrid)!?! 1/18-1/19
Dalfy replied to Frog Town's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Great little band has setup in east MO including St. Louis Metro. Not sure how long it will last, but may bring us up to just over an 1 given we have a heavy dusting now. Temp 26. -
Nice band has setup in central MO though we've been dealing with virgo for the last few hours in St. Louis Metro. It's looking like some precip is falling in Jefferson and radar looks juicier just west so I anticipate the column to moisten in the next hour or so. LSX is calling for up to an inch which is more than I would've expected. Excited to pad our maybe 3'' season total with another inch lol. Temp is a balmy 9F.
