  1. I shoveled 4, 6, 3 and 2. Very unofficial 15". Sleet held off to the very end when it was meaningless.
  2. Interesting that Fredericksburg still reporting mod snow. But you're right, this isn't good for us.
  3. The advance of the sleet line is way behind schedule in the MA region. How is that for weenie map analysis?
  4. The Mayor Lindsay storm, or the ENE staller? The Lindsay storm is my first real memory of a full-out blizzard. Complete surprise too.
  5. To the best of my recollection (and it is foggy at this point), it was a clipper that went straight east of the VA capes by about 200 miles, then made a hard left turn to the north. The best precip shield was NW of the surface low., similar to what AI is showing. 30" in Newport, 10" NECT, 6" back to Springfield. I do not recall Boston...but it was rain in Maine. On or about 12/5/81.
  6. Euro AI monster for the 4th. A bit like December 1981.
  7. For the most part yes. GFS was a bit screwy. For instance, what are we looking at here?
  8. Do you have sleet shoes, lol? The interesting thing about these sleet depictions over coastal CT....is how close it is to all snow. The sounding below is for our hood. Lower that h750 temp by .5c?, maybe .25c? And it is a whole different ballgame here.
  9. Well stated Wfella. The 12 hour period before a storm is my absolute favorite. And prodromal...I learned a new word!
  10. Does anyone have AI maps that show p-type? The freebies that I can see don't, but I do see our thickness never exceeding 546. One would think the AIs would excel at something like this...lots of history upon which to refer...
  11. I hope so, because it shows me sleeting after 5" of snow.
  12. Unfortunately, one op NAM's (few) strengths is in the handling of mid-level warm noses in SWFEs.
  13. I don't get the reduced snow depths along the immediate shores. The warm air is not coming in from the ocean, it is coming from the SW at 850mb and above.
  14. That's an interesting point. When I look at the soundings in the regions depicted as sleet on the maps, I see the only violation of 0c is the narrow nose right at 700mb. In reality, I wonder if it is sleet mixed with snow that forms below 700mb?
