Typhoon Tip Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Did you see the HPC prelim maps? Looked like a cold high trying to build in from Ontario with a low on the jersey shore. They like Euro Ensembles from 0Z They usually do, particularly when CISCO is at the helm, who has on few occasions championed the ESENs means. Hey, if it works, it works it works. It seems like judging just by last Friday and now today's almost carbon copy result, it may be unwise to go against colder The 12z ECM somehow transitions that into a snow storm interestingly enough - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cja1987 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Jesus, 49 back in my hometown of Randolph and 37 @KBOS. About as tight a gradient as I've seen between those two places. Any snowpack reports from Randolph/Canton/Braintree/Milton area? Before I call the folks later, they have an extreme low bias so Id rather hear it here, lol.

I told her that wasn't good news and she was confused. I guess she doesn't understand snowpack>bare ground. :lmao: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 There was a nice glazing at the high school earlier before we went to 36F. It was cool with the ice on top of the new snow. Usually when we have an ice storm on top of snow its been around for a while so there isn't snow still on the trees. 34.9F now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is holding in the high to our nnw? With a strong gradient like this, it has to lean one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a strong gradient like this, it has to lean one way or another. There is a -EPO type ridge over interior eastern Alaska and the NW Territories of Canada around Ds 5-9, and that assists the generation of intense polar sfc ridging during said time, downstream southern Canada. Will it happen? Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Very interested to see if we held onto ice back at home. Here at work in Leominster it flipped to reg. rain and seemed to clear things off a bit. Looked like 1/8" accretion when I was able to look around 10:45AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Seems like we accrued somewhere in the vicinity of .25'' here. Not enough for tree damage, but the highway was full of rollovers/other accidents this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Not much ice here in Hubbardston.

moneypitmike Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Temp ticked back to 31.5/30 from 31.7. Thought I'd cross the threshold--maybe miss by a hair. Anamometer may be frozen. I'ver recorded 0 for several hours. It's calm, but not sure if it's that calm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Mixed out in the low 40s now with a W wind. Front went through about an hour ago. Never warm sectored, but the post frontal mixing warmed us up. Reminds me of what always would happen during my met school days in Plymouth, NH.

butterfish55 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 48.3/48 Full blown torch This high dp soup is blasting through the snow. This is the kind of air we've been able to avoid for the most part this winter. Even when it got over freezing, we never had really high DPs....until today.
