ORH_wxman Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I had 2" in that....11" in the st Paddy's day and .5" on March 2nd...that was the mnth for me. The St. Paddy's day will always hold a special place in my heart, though because it was my 2nd major event on this board, the first being the vd event....I had to wait an ETERNITY to experience a decent event on here, that winter. That winter was so bad in the beginning. Think about where we were on February 1st that winter. ORH had 5" for the season. :lmao: Compare that to where we were this year on Feb 1st. Feb and Mar made a nice comeback but it wasn't even close to enough to make up for the abysmal first half. NNE was able to make for it, but we were too far south to make up completely. The St. Pattys event was nice, but being so late in the season it kind of had a bitter sweet feel and even that one was still sleet contaminated. Dec '07 erased the bad taste pretty quick of the previous winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ski MRG Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 30/23, sn, winds are just howling, seem to be getting stronger as the night wears on. Winter's back here on the East slope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Still worried about the north trend and taint on the models, but the strung out look and PV will hopefully limit that somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Score. Woke up to some decent snows. Good fluffly flkaes coming down. Perhaps an an inch or so it look slike. With the blowing , hard to be sure,. 29.6/26 and breezy.--a little . Edit: Curiously, since this post my temp had dropped to 29.4 and is suddenly back up to 30.3. Guess the warmth is giving some resistence. Listening to teh wind roar, though, that resistance will soon be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Hey, Kevin--I see you have joined in. Are you going to lock in 2-4" for tomorrow night/Monday? Looks like a safe bet. Low end will verify if/where there's tainting, high end where there's none. 29.0/25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Nice to wake up to an almost regionwide 3-6 inch event except for extreme south coast. Maybe some spots can grab 7 or 8.

Hopefully you can get a little from the area just west of ORH. Might clip you or be a near miss. Can see the dawn lightening the back edge of the clouds from the line that brought us an inch or so. Nice to make the post-torch snowpack appear to be fresh. Kind of like the "starts without make-up" slideshows I've seen--that make up can make a lot of difference it seems! lol 28.1/25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropopause_Fold Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 LOL. I don't think he means that. yeah that wasn't my thought at all. more just exactly what you said above. it's not a traditional SWFE with that PV there. maybe the thermal profile will behave somewhat similarly...i don't know...but the qpf distribution might be a little different than what folks might normally expect.
