moneypitmike Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Who cares you end up gaining 3-5 inches of new snow and ice. I'd give a few balls to be in your shoes I'll be happy with 3-5. That's what they had this morning, too. I thought there would be a change back to snow on the back end, though. From the WAA, it's going to end as rain. 34.0/13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 well enjoy your flood watch...it's the only flood watch you get. I don't know why they issued one. It's not warranted in N CT unless it's for ponding on rdways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 With a little luck, I might actually get a net gain out of this...3" of paste on the front end, some brief 31-32F ice, then a 34F rain to mat down the 3" of paste and then a flip to snow at the end for a quick inch or two. At the very least, it doesn't look too damaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I just took a gander at FOUS and see there are some issues...may have been discussed. ME is in great shape...even PWM may eeek out all snow and most will book 6-10. NH/ALB. has potential sleet contamination during the first half of the event at CON extending to ALB. BTV looks like 6+ but fluff vs cement. I was surprised to see the sleet signal at CON/ALB to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, its probably more of a tease than anything if the monadnocks get hammered and I'm stuck with wet snow changing to 33F rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 That mechanism is called the human brain. Unfortunately it's often biased with emotions so the leaning often goes against our strong rational deductive skills and leans towards the snowier model(s) Yeah but it's impossible to split the difference mentally or even manually. I'd be really interested to see a true model mean for the two OP runs but it'll never happen. Loon and shawnee are likely all sn Sunapee I could see a period of pl and fzra Wawa will be wet mostly imo Thanks Think of how HarveyLeonardFan and Messenger felt. 10-15 miles away getting crushed. There isn't a storm this winter that I felt like we got robbed. HLF got hosed a bunch of times. I think I did remarkably well all things considered the last few events.

Brian5671 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I don't know why they issued one. It's not warranted in N CT unless it's for ponding on rdways with temps and dews in the high 40's and 1.50-1.75 of QPF-it's warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I may finally be able to beat Ray in an event. If you don't, I don't wtf would've happened. Maybe 6" for you and 1" for Ray to close in on the snow totals? I know Ive set it a lot, but I'm glad I'm going north tonight. Probably 1-2" of slush back home, while hubb dave gets like 5".

DavisStraight Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Absolutely.Disagree...Perk's offense is abysmal and he hasn't looked great post-injury.

BTW... don't get depressed if you have WMUR (NH station) on tonight... although their wx team is very solid, a lot of times they tend to under-do amounts in cases like this!

In the end, its probably more of a tease than anything if the monadnocks get hammered and I'm stuck with wet snow changing to 33F rain. It's a lot of rain, but even over an inch of rain on that snow pack should not be catastrophic at 34F. Then throw in a little snow possibly on either end..you'll come out ok I think. I wonder if it's something where HubbDave is a mix, but Sam is ripping for awhile back in Keene. Looks really close. You'll truly be able to walk elephants across that snowpack of yours, by Saturday morning. With any luck, that next system is similar..or at least a good amount of ZR for you.

B Dawk 20 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I was going to suggest that you give yourselves plenty of time. It's school vacation week here in Mass, that means extra folks heading to VT for the weekend, driving through snow on winding mountain roads. Where are you playing? Wobbly Barn. Of all the times I've played there, this is the first time I'm travelling with a storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The freezing rain could be heavy at times. High near 47. Light wind becoming west between 12 and 15 mph. Winds could gust as high as 34 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 the flood watch is pretty much for ponding. It mentions urban and poor drainage flooding...some small streams to near bank full. I think it was yesterday that BOX/ERC ran a scenario based on 2" of rainfall and no rivers reached flood stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
