I have been thinking storm around the ides.

imagine 1500 ft of that

There must be a big storm over the Mediterranean that could get a hankerin for some Portuguese Kale Soup and then before you know it, its sucked out into the Atlantic into a ginormous negatively titled trough covering the entire North Atlantic. I know this sounds crazy, but what if it then feels the gulf stream? Then what? Does it get pulled even further west towards the benchmark? And it brings a quadruple phasing of Mediterranean, Adriatic, Gulf, and Atlantic moisture. I think there's a record of something similar happening on Pangea, before it all split apart, only there was less moisture involved so this would be a bigger record setting storm of multiple feet every day

It ain't happening Ant?

Snowing very very heavily, at least 2 in./h rate but radar says it doesn’t last. Check out the High DBZ band up here

I was surprised to see 2-4 of snow in my forecast for tomorrow. I hadn't been on here much very good Maybe it'll be 1 of those things that they say it's gonna change to rain but it doesn't really do that till the end and we end up with a nice snw. Ends up being a pretty snowy February.

I love when they meditate like that. They're just soaking it in. When I take my girl out at night sometimes when there's a bright moon reflecting off the snow she just sits and stares at the moon.

unreal awesomeness

Go big or go gardenGo big or go garden

A in this form we call those scooter highs, just saying

Its a thick water-logged mushy snow. 10-14 in the fields and 12-16 or so in the woods (maybe 18)

Does this mean that you have abandoned your forecast for multiple storms in March with multiple feet in each storm and 80-90 inches in Boston for the month of March?

Don’t you do that to Mama Cass

I think with long significant blocking episodes there’s also what i call an echo pattern of blocking returning for periods over a few weeks before it finally ends. Guidance doesn’t handle that well.

Jeff going 3-6

I’m just happy it’s an overachiever

Just was issued a winter weather advisory for a total accumulation of 1 to 3 inches. We’re already there. I’m wondering why they didn’t go to to for 3 to 5 looking at the radar

Overachiever 4 on the table

What’s your assessment of the radar? Do you have a better radar than I do but it looks like there’s still quite a bit of moderate snow at least with some heavy birth still to go. My visibility is below a half mile although I don’t know if it’s below a quarter mile. We’re almost 2 2 inches as well

It’s not a strong wind or anything but it looks like the snow is now coming in from the Northeast, Meeting on a slight Northeast breeze Before it was coming in from a south breze

This is a nice snow so far, and there are a lot of radar echoes to go. This could overachieve I guess.. Solidly moderate snow here with pretty low viz, but temp still rising, now at 32.

an inch of steady light to occassionally moderate snow now. hopeful for another mod-heavy burst to get us closer to 3 in the end.

some heavies at times.

Not heavy yet but bordering on it. Snow growth greatly improved. Temp up to 30. Viz definitely below 1/2 so might be heavy now or shortly. Here's our girl and her best lil buddy.

started a half hour ago and coming down nicely. small flakes but not sand.
