Yup…windblown sugar. We can pound with deep ESE flow, but those are few and far between with snow the dominant ptype. Usually there’s a positive V component feeding in colder/drier/downsloping air here otherwise.
I’ve been seeing the extra screw zone on qpf in the CRV in Mass. I haven’t looked at it too much yet, but with that shitstreak attempt into Maine I’m a little worried about some low to mid level dry air feeding in up here.
