  1. Saw 5.5" in Weymouth as of 5pm for the max in Norfolk Co. WUZ that U?
  2. We BIG snow! Probably the most 40"+ reports in a NEUS storm other than March 1888 and Feb 1969.
  3. I know what CoastalWx is thinking now w/ the 00z HRRR -- March 8-9, 2013! Not quite the 600 mi SE of ACK the sfc low was then, but it still 300 mi! 30" at MQE in the 2013 event. One of biggest modern day fcst busts here for snow! The 500 low elongation axis is now just W of the region, and the low cuts off a decent distance S of LI on some models. So a weenie pseudo "backlash" OES combo appears likely.
  4. Given how crappy the previous 4 winters have been, this winter has been outstanding. We can't always have a 1992-93, 1995-96, 2004-05, or 2014-15 every time for a "good" winter. CoastalWx mindset: "If it is not a Bliz of '13 RIPPER w/ everything but the kitchen sink falling out of the sky, I'm dissatisfied!"
  5. It's PT time for CoastalWx! RRFS FTW! Such a slow evolution of the 500 trough over New England Sat-Sun. It just doesn't sweep though, it elongates and cuts off for some really good OES weenie bands IMHO. 500 temps drops as low as -38 C, which is about as cold as you will see them in the NEUS. -40 C at 500 in the CONUS does not happen too often, and I think the limit at 500 for temps is around -50 C (coldest I have seen in NAMR is -51 C). There is some physical atmospheric reason why it can't get colder than this I recall, but I forget the reason why.
  6. I was torn between this song and "Working On It" by Chris Rea!
  7. Yes, talk to him in the third person! CoastalWx gets what CoastalWx likes, ALL HAIL WINTER!!!!
