  1. Mine was the Halloween storm in 2011 which shut the grid down for a week in my neighborhood. My initial reaction was, what the eff was that?
  2. I am hoping the warm bump makes its way east. Right now the Temple mountain ranges says no, but I think it will see 35 or 36 for an hour or two. Still 32.7.
  3. If you have a generator and a wood stove, its all fun and games. I would hate to go through it with out the right tools.
  4. GYX just updated our high temps, down a few degrees and realigned with current temperature readings. The last update had us a 39 degrees at this time period. High was supposed to be 41. Now calling for snow showers this afternoon. Thats new.
  5. The '98 ice storm was incredible. I remember driving up from Manchester to visit my parents in the Wolfeboro area on that Saturday. It was the first day it would get above freezing and from their back deck all you heard many trees cracking as the ice softened. The Ice acted like a support structure, until it didn't.
  6. I have been bouncing between 32.5 and 32.9 since i got up 4 hours ago.
  7. About 1/8" of ice. 32.4 degrees here at 300 feet. Hopefully we get a few hours above freezing to eliminate any possible damage from the winds.
  8. Topped out at 38. Now 27. Slowly decreasing. GYX saying we bottom out around 26 and end up at 38 at sunset tomorrow. Still calling for 0.4" of freezing rain.
  9. We rebounded to 38 from a low of 6. Impressive. Milky sky. Revised GYX forecast had us topping out at 36. Sundown temperature of 32. Calling for about 0.4" of freezing rain followed by 37 degrees and 0.25" of rain, hopefully enough to minimize the power outage threat before the winds move in tomorrow night.
  10. I do appreciate that. 1 inch of ice is worse than 3 feet of snow in many cases. I do not feel that the local stations are mentioning this event past a minor nuisance.
  11. SNH could be in for a problem Monday morning. Not a December 2008 issue but something to monitor. Latest HRR
  12. 13 here. About 4 degrees lower than expected based on GYX forecast.
  13. This was a weather station less than a mile away from me but +500 feet.
  14. Our temps held out much longer than forecasted on the 19th. It was a good 3 or 4 hours longer than forecasted by the local mets. Where I live, its in a valley with 500 plus foot elevation change just to my north (within a mile). I took a drive up over the hills after that storm and they had lost all of the snow, while we kept a covering in the open areas. This should be an interesting storm.
  15. GYX mentioned that models have a hard time handling CAD this morning. All eyes on how quickly the clouds move in or do not Sunday night. Cold snow pack and how much radiation cooling takes place before the clouds move in would seem to be a key item. We are supposed to hit 38 degrees here tomorrow. Eye on that as well.
  16. 3". Based on the way it looks, we must have finished with some giant flakes. 15 degrees.
  17. I can't help myself. Been sitting on this for an hour. Giggity.
  18. Maybe NAM is picking up on the dry air issues. The axis of the heaviest snows does not really move, but the north east extent of snow is definitely affected.
  19. Long time lurker here. The moderators finally gave me my wings... thank you! I will chime in with some observations now and then. I am trying to think when the last white Christmas was here in S. NH. I think its been 10 years or so. Maybe someone can help with that. I don't count snow banks, 60 degrees and rolling fog to be a white Christmas. Cheers. Got down to 7 degrees here last night.
