  1. The HRRR is a particularly low skill model with a meandering coastal low. For example, look at this 7 hour forecast of the current (10AM) radar. Not a very good representation of the mixing line and the intensity.
  2. Bummer. That's pretty low regionally. Hopefully you make it up on the pivot band coming through in an hour or two. I would say we are a hair over 7" here.
  3. I'm in the lower W 230s. It has just lightened up, but it's mostly been heavy or moderately heavy since about 7 AM. A few miles has made the difference in this storm thus far. Overnight we probably only got 2-3", while CPK was 5".
  4. I'm in Riverdale. Definitely concur. Last night underperformed up here due to dry air, but this morning has more than made up for it.
  5. Any one have observations from the New Brunswick area? The radar there is insane and the HRRR is spitting out 6" hour rates.
  6. Yeah all the frames with "rain" are essentially <0.01" of QPF on the Euro. That's the typical frizzle you get after big storms, and I do expect it to happen here. Could it compress the pack? Sure. Another reason to make sure you measure frequently with this storm, as it's a long drawn out event.
  7. All snow here in Riverdale. Coming down light to moderately now. I'd guess about 1/4" accumulated on non-pavement surfaces.
  8. I believe this is the highest anomaly recorded in the 80N spatial area, FWIW.
  9. Right. In the near term, the record slow refreeze means very little in terms of "climate feedbacks." The extent in May and June have much larger implications on lasting arctic warmth due to the sun pouring in at that time. The argument can be made, however, that a record slow refreeze could potentially cause a less solvent ice pack moving into next melting season.
  10. Perhaps this has been touched on earlier in this thread, but does anyone know what's caused the slowdown in methane rises from 2000-Present?
  11. Got about 22-25 inches from this storm in my neighborhood. Very rarely are we the bullseye in mid Atlantic storms (except 2011-2012, of course)
  12. How could one worry about wind mills and not complain about the massive amount of ecological and human damage fossil fuels have caused? House cats and automobiles kill about a million times more birds than all windmills in the world combined. Sorry for the off topic.
