I have no idea happening in my neighborhood. I must be trapped in some weird microclimate. There are reports all around me of 4-5” of snow, including downtown Greenfield.
Meanwhile I’m 5 miles northwest of town with some elevation and there’s hardly anything here. Maybe 1” of slop. I must be in some weird shadow or temperature dam.
34/29 in Greenfield and light rain. Temp has not budged in hours. Precipitation is also much lighter than radar would have you believe.
You are not much higher than my location but you are 10 miles further from the CT River which must make a difference.
Some wet flakes now mixing in. 34/29 RA
Big elongated rain drops, freshly melted. I bet if I drove 2 miles N up my street it is probably dumping fatties.
It will be fun to be a school admin for this storm. Parents will be sending some colorful emails, when school is canceled and they wake up to bare ground and pouring rain.
That's a little concerning because it does show the Greenfield-Brattleboro shadow screw zone. Along with the Keene, N Adams, Pittsfield, Bennington and Albany shadow screw zones.
I think models were overdoing the shadow effect but obviously surface temps still a big issue. The CRV needs this to absolutely go to town with rates. Nowcast all the way I think.
No matter how their map changes elsewhere, BOX has had Greenfield pinned at 6-8” for three days now. With current modeling I’m thinking probably closer to 10” here. I’ll buy gas and test the generator this afternoon.
