  1. Maybe John Henry can write the postmortem on this winter. He'll be able to put lipstick on that Alaskan pig.
  2. I have more snow now than I did that whole season. And it was my first full winter up here too.
  3. I'll take sensors wherever I can get them. Edit: Weather sensors, weather sensors...
  4. I'm learning Italian for a vacation later this year, and my language app is throwing phrases at me that use demonstratives. Just got: La primavera é in ritardo quest'anno Foreshadowing 40 and sheet drizzle in the months to come?
  5. I would say verbatim it's a net gain for most of NNE. I still have 5 weeks of indoor golf league left, after that we start worrying about melting the pack off.
  6. It's frozen, Dendy could work with that.
  7. Kirkwood Mountain in CA has a sensor by "Chair 6" gusting to 209 mph in the last couple of hours. That's dangerously close to taking MWN down as the tops in the USA.
  8. I know. That's what I'm saying, there are more ways for 11-15 to suck on the warm side than there are to be good on the cold side. So yeah it may actually feel like warm verifies and cold does not.
  9. Lol at the redo over the driveway. Kept breaking through as well. Told my wife I wouldn't be long.... Same. Two passes just about covered it except where I had to drive over it to and from work. Better than a sheet of ice though.
  10. I look at it like cutters. It doesn't matter if it cuts to BTV or cuts to ORD, it's still crap for most of New England. Likewise the pattern doesn't matter if it's +5 or +10, it's still likely crap.
  11. It's possible to run an in-house WRF on a computer for a small domain. More likely they just pay for some proprietary service that only they have.
  12. A 1.5 gust factor is well within typical ranges, so that's not a red flag. I know the WV showed a real dry patch develop on the leading edge of the wind. Figured that could be an area of enhanced wind.
  13. Based on the way the satellite looked around the time, I wouldn't be surprised with a rouge extreme gust in P-town.
  14. 4.8" from the initial WAA yesterday brings me to 45.1" total. We've managed to stay just ahead of normal (37.5" for the date) just about all season despite a torched January.
  15. We were overruled. We wanted to do two separate systems (advisory snow Thursday/some warnings today with advisories for freezing rain) but our neighbors wanted to group them together.
  16. I saw BGM ripped off 0.32" liquid in an hour with heavy snow. Heated tipping bucket working overtime.
  17. It's part of the fraud five for a reason, but every once and a while the backlash snow comes together.
  18. Some academic types have a very specific definition for sting jet, so we may overuse that phrase (I'm going to have to read more up on specifics) but this is impressive however you want to categorize it.
  19. Not really seeing any gravity wave signatures on pressure traces, could just be a good old fashioned isallobaric burst coupled with a good descending jet.
  20. Seeing a lot of sustained 30+ knots. Pretty impressive.
  21. There appears to be another wave just south of LI (can see it in low level WV imagery). I'll be interested to see if there is another burst of relatively higher wind gusts incoming.
