CoastalWx Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Wow, it must be absolutely ripping along the 495 belt SE of here near Milford down to Franklin Yeah maybe that area is a separate mini jackpot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCPSUSuperstorm2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 CCP I worry about a solution that really pounds the M/A and is so intense it doesn't make a lot of N/S progress or wraps almost NW before collapsing ESE. That is one monster setting up on the NAM, Day After Tommorow type stuff. I see what you mean, the fact that the EURO is the only model that occludes the low that quickly is a little suspect. Maybe the model's bias is in play and that is a concern. Snowing now, it looks nice outside, still have about 4" on the ground, more where the higher drifts were. I wonder if that TAN is taking a little while longer with the AFDs to maybe contemplate issuing a WWA for some of the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I think it was the 06z NAM that had a pocket where the theta-e surfaces were vertical...around 18z over eastern areas. This would make sense I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Snow has almost shut off here for the time being. heavy, heavy downslope here. these lingering lows and everything associated with them can go to hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would make sense I guess. NAM all things considered has done pretty well. We should have a break after this first push but it may be short.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Can see the later night feed setting up.....look SE to NW near Nova Scotia heading into Downeast...... as the mid level feature rotates under us through EPA that will drop SW. Let's hope it can be a pinch stronger and slam that band west before it comes south and rakes all of us. http://www.rap.ucar.edu/weather/satellite/displaySat.php?region=ALB&itype=wv&size=large&endDate=20101222&endTime=-1&duration=5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott mentioned how the patterns with the H5 lows going underneath us tend to overperform. TAN updated local forecast now expect 1-2" tomorrow of snow for Harwich, MA. Still have yet to update the AFD, wonder what they are waiting for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 -sn, probably about .5" or so new since 1:30. The are roads mostly wet, but I finally have over an inch snow pack for the first time this year. Looks like the good stuff is just to the SE like less then 10 miles.

PWMan Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Disappointing here so far. It's been snowing lightly or flurrying all day, but with zero accumulation. I keep watching what appear to be good returns rotating in from the NE, but the intensity hasn't picked up. With temps at or slightly above freezing, it's basically looked and felt like a drizzly day. The surprise 3" from Monday are long gone aside from a few piles thanks to yesterday's 39 and rain (on strong NW winds!), so it's pretty depressing out there. Get this marine crap out of here....

The main event for the GYX area is still quite a few hours away. Midnight probably. This little prelude is kind of unrelated to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 It's hard to measure on the grass, but just by eyeballing it, I'd say we've picked up maybe a .5''+ so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCPSUSuperstorm2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 TAN updated, mentions that confidence remains low on potential widespread 4" amounts and mention SREF shows zero probs for 4" or more, they got burned by this model with the 12" of snow that had fallen Monday night.

No WWA issued. Given temps and uncertainty I agree with the way they played it. We have no idea where that band will setup. If by 9pm it appears to be more inland great, but right now it hasn't even formed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Great mood snow here in Hubbardston. On the ride home west on rte 2 I would call it mod snow with about 1/4 to 1/2 mile vis Good flakes. Sticking on all surfaces here. Maybe a quarter to half inch on railings on the deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Everyone keeps called fore most of the accumulations to be alone the coast, but the heaviest bands are setup in the interior along 495, is something going to change overnight? if not, most snow total maps are going to be completely off.
