JJBASHB Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 SN 32.5/32 accumulating on all surfaces here in Rindge, estimating about 0.5" so far Impressive gradient along that band. I'm just to your southwest and at the time you posted I was out clearing the driveway a bit. It was 37-38 and you could see the sun. Finished up and turned around to head in when BAM wind gusted to 35-40. Within minutes the skies clouded up, and it started to snow. 31.7 now, sn- to sn and accumulating on everything except the more exposed pavement.

powderfreak Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 2" in 2 hours between 12pm and 2pm at 1,500ft. Almost 3" in those same 2 hours up at 3,014ft. Then we had a pause. Now it is dumping again. This looks very promising this evening. Totals so far in the past 36 hours are 5.2" at 1,500ft and 7.0" at 3,000ft as of 2pm today.

tamarack Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 +IP/RN and a few rumbles of thunder That stuff arrived in AUG about 2:30, lasted till 3. Thought I heard thunder (wasn't really listening at first), but the second time I heard the noise, I realized it was snow sliding off the slate roof across the lawn and hitting the ground 50' below. Barometers around the area are 980-85, should make for some wind with the CAA. ME/NH mts have WWA for 3-6" and near white-outs, foothills 2-4" w/o advisory. MBY typically does poorly in these sort of CAA-burst events, probably gets some downsloping from the taller foothills N & W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 How much did you get? 1"+ everywhere but the pavement. We wasted some of the heavy snow on the very wet surfaces. Nice surprise. BOX could have gone with a WWA here, the roads got pretty tough and are freezing now. Two days two overperformances here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 it's not a whiteout if you can see something Q16. What is a "White-Out? "A16. 'White-out' is the term used often to describe any condition during snowfall that severely restricts visibility. In the Glossary of Weather and Climate published by the American Meteorological Society, a whiteout is defined as "an atmospheric optical phenomenon of the polar regions in which the observer appears to be engulfed in a uniformly white glow as a result of a lack of contrast between an overcast sky and an unbroken snow cover. Neither shadows, horizon, nor clouds are discernable; sense of depth and orientation is lost; dark objects in the field of view appear to "float" at an indeterminable distance."

powderfreak Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 it's not a whiteout if you can see something True but its pretty damn disorienting up on the mountain. That was in the base area, on the mountain when the wind blows, you really can't see anything. You should come up and enjoy some snow. I'm sure its been rough in New Jersey. Even BTV is ripping 1/2sm vis moderate snow this evening. Its always nice to see the "heavy snow" icons out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
