CapturedNature Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Ryan and Scooter say we are at 85 inches You've got to be higher than that because I'm at 85 or 86" (I don't have my numbers in front of me) and I know you were under some better echos for a couple of storms and had a few more than I did. I'm a pretty conservative measurer between you and the Staffordville guy. I say that several of us break the 100" mark this season with the 1+ month that is left.

Damage In Tolland Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I hope so, it would be a shame if anywhere in CT beat us considering where we are located Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Watch the daytime tomorrow...low rates = melting. I'm basically taking QPF and subtracting 20% for lack of snowfall rates. These past few night have been teens and single digits this am, There has not been much warming, Temps don't look to go above freezing here tomorrow so i don't think even in crap rates we see much melting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 The ORH snowfall record is actually 132.9" in '95-'96, not 120.1" in 1992-1993. I suppose "officially" it is still '92-'93 in the NCDC data base, but strangely enough at NRCC at Cornell, the 132.9" figure is listed in their April 1996 news letter. NWS BOX I believe recognizes this as well although in their snow table for ORH, they still have the incorrect 97.9" listed for 1995-1996. http://www.news.cornell.edu/releases/May96/NRCC_April96.bpf.html Thanks for this info., Will. Hopefully, that error will be fixed. As a side note, the dates on the Regional Snowfall Index site (http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/snow-and-ice/rsi/societal-impacts) showing snowstorms in various parts of the country are also off for various storms.

dryslot Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Not exaggerated at all. Up in ME, ratios will be pretty solid with this so QPF numbers may be misleading. If anything, They are probably low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

met_fan Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Man--looking at Syracuse's departure makes me feel so very good about this season. Buffalo must be having a terrible snow season...not even top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Wow we absolutely rip tomorrow morning on the NAM. 6-10" final call. Looks like a dryslot then maybe another inch or two on top after that but who knows if that works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Love the change back to snow all models have for us late afternoon// evening tomorrow. Hopefully can sting down another 1-3 on top No model shows a change to snow for you. Sleet or rain is more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air temps are 8-12F here while roads temps are in the 40s already. I was more referencing roads, not so much grassy surfaces. March sun does wonders. You'll RIP after 21z tomorrow though.

moneypitmike Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 If I can eek out 10.5", I'll break 80. Disappointing for a season that held so much promise. Seemed all season long I was like a player listed as "day-to-day". Could never quite get in the game. Alas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 RPM and NAM both flip us back to snow with the southern part of the stinger late tmrrw Incorrect. The NAM does not. Not sure about the RPM... I didn't look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 RPM and NAM both flip us back to snow with the southern part of the stinger late tmrrw It may be tough for you because it's torched aloft down there.

CT Rain Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Really? Isnt' that snow on the back end of the NAM down that way? No... here's the QPF from hours 27-30. And here's the 850mb temperatures at 30 hours. Temperatures remain too warm for that to stay snow south of the Pike. Sleet or rain (or in the NW Hills of CT... freezing rain) will be the rule.

CapturedNature Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Whats the coop dude in Staffordville have YTD? Honestly I don't know - I would suspect it's similar to yours or at least 8-10" more than me which is would be in the 95-96" range which is close enough statistically to you.

Damage In Tolland Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Yeah I'm thinking like a 2-3 hour period of flip back to snow after sleet /zr all afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 It may be tough for you because it's torched aloft down there. It could occur if this stays a bit se though. If the whole thing trended colder... possibly. But at least right now we're torched 775-850mb so when we get that second wave we're still not cold enough for snow. I could see us rip pingers though.

Baroclinic Zone Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Haven't been able to look at much but what are we thinking will be the sleet transition line? -2c 850 iso? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I think we will do better than that. NAM even upped the QPF... If we don't torch aloft and can stay snow after the lull, then yes maybe more. But I think 6-10'' is the fair call right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be one of those deals where VVs rip and can help flip the column over to snow. It's tough to really call that down there..I think you'd have to see how the GFS and Euro look. Might be better further north obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 In fairness, Ed was talking pavement temps Yeah I was. And you guys in ME will def get at least 10", if not 15" lol. I just think during that "lull" during the morning tomorrow will see non accumulating snows, even though the models are adding up that 0.1-0.25" qpf.
