Got a photo of this observation from earlier... heavy rime ice last night and today. Probably even some snow grains and almost like frozen drizzle accumulating on the upper slopes.
-
Light snow falling at home now. Great to see big flakes in the flood lights.
-
That is nuts!
-
Hey dude! I remember you for sure! Great to see that name. Were you in the BGM area at one point? Trying to remember your old posting location. Thats great to see a familiar name from the EUSWX or earlier times. Some -SN in Burlington per a video I just saw. Snow showers moving in.
-
Yeah I was wondering if we see widespread -SHSN or flurries tonight. Sky has that virga snow wispy look. In fact Mansfield just disappeared in snow it looks like.
-
That ICON looked a lot better for a stronger finish. More of a legit CCB look from NE Mass to E.CT. BED goes from like 41F to 32F in like 2-3 hours of heavy rates.
-
The more impressive part of that run though is south coast of CT looks like they have a shot now. That’s a congrats Ginxy.
-
Oh I know, I remember that story. Ha.
-
Wow. In October none the less.
-
Huddled in a corner on the ground, bottle next to me, iPhone in hand hitting refresh on the ARW SREF members off E-Wall.... good times. Those m'fers pumping out 970mb lows over BOS like candy with deform bands over ART/MSS, all the while Scooters wife is wandering the neighborhood looking for him thinking he's drowned in the snow somewhere in Weymouth.
-
It’s a good warm up for life in NNE. Hang on the GGEM and the general rule of when the forum is buzzin’, we are usually watchin’. But nice to track a winter event and see the usual faces popping back up. Also no Stein talk after the larvae hatches is a good thing too. Hopefully they can trend this back into a more intense CCB, that would spread the snow out more in SNE.
-
I think his latitude matters more TBH. It’s cold draining down from the north.
-
I’m starting to really like your area now, ha. The shift south from Dendrite jack, to now HubbDave to Methuen. We slinking around.
-
Crying in my milk. Will never recover. Man, a good snow threat gets everyone busting balls so it’s fun. The south loves stealing snow from the north, totally get it lol.
-
Heh, yeah I guess that’s what I saw too. Several hours of -SN vs 40dbz of thundersnow and wind in a flash freeze.
-
Yeah I still think the dynamic runs we saw earlier where a band of 30-40dbz curling through SNE would’ve been better for snow to be honest. But I get the fear of some of Dendrite gets jacked. I still think those other runs would’ve given more excitement in SNE too, but to each their own.
-
Those runs had ridiculous banding for you guys though too as it exited stage right. But now it’s more of a lighter steadier snow transition instead of going rain to 1-2”/hr with thunder. But yes the jack would’ve been like Dendrites area.
-
It seemed to do two fold... it would snow further north but then the dynamic strong backside had a much heavier flash-freeze blitz through SNE with thunder/lightning. But I agree for southern folks like you, Kev and Bob this is likely the better way to go.
-
Where suppression depression happens in October lol. You’ll get used to it when DIT goes full weenie, it’s not a good sign.
-
Yeah I’ve seen some snow grains this morning, almost like a frozen drizzle lol. Rime ice layer is real low, like 2,500ft or a bit lower. Trees really frosted up last night.
-
It wasn’t clear it would take place... hating on any and all precip chances, muttering ratter winter all day long, fears galore... but all it took was a couple snowy model runs and she hatched big and beautiful.
-
It’s been a stunning change lol. Stein is dead and a beautiful butterfly has emerged. All precipitation is magically no longer assumed to miss east/west/north/south.
-
UKMET is full snoozer. Went from this: To this: Precip stays mostly south of RT 2. Even ALB only 0.25” QPF total.
-
Interesting 00z trends.
-
ICON like there... boring. Never gets going.
