Damage In Tolland Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 looking at the radar some areas are going to get some really good snowfall rates for a bit Just all depends which side of 10:00pm we change over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 That's one of the values I include in my sig just for that reason. If I want to know what the chance of snow is at either location, I look at that value. What is your conclusion based on those obs at both sites? It's 38.3 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 weird just went to wunderground to check temps around the area and they have this for my area tonight seems off compared to nws usually they are the same Friday Night A mix of wintry precipitation this evening. Then periods of snow expected overnight. Low 31F. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph. Snow and ice accumulating 3 to 5 inches. I think Wunderground, like the Weather Channel, stopped using NWS forecasts. They use their own automated system based on their network of stations. Either that or since they are owned by the Weather Channel are trying to hype it up.

HoarfrostHubb Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Someone like dave is in game for 5"So some say, but I think the under is a better bet. I'm upping to 2.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapturedNature Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 What is your conclusion based on those obs at both sites? It's 38.3 here It needs to cool some. Wet Bulb is about 37° here. Temp is 38 or 39° depending on here or in Union. You can tell which way the cooler air is coming because my WB is lower than Union's 600' higher than me.

CapturedNature Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Just all depends which side of 10:00pm we change over Look at AVP - it doesn't work in all situations obviously but one of my rules of thumb when I was forecasting 20 years ago was whatever happens there, happens here about three hours later.

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Got a long way to go here before we even entertain the idea of snow. Looks like we have a 2-3 hour window down this way. If we are an hour or two to late, anything but a coating is toast down here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Sarah Wrobowlski has a decent 3-6" swath Very tricky setup. It's a race with the cold. I felt pretty good for your area, but this is one of those deals where we have ranges for a reason. Not sure if I would go 3-6 though. One thing is for sure, this will bust for some in either direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 What? It's not me dummy.My guess is its a combo of a few of the mods/ mets . Probably some pm's / texts exchanged behind the back to set it up. It's kind of disturbing that a few folks would be so obsessed that they'd have to make a fake user name up to troll me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 I'm at phi with no internet and have been in an all day meeting. so im completely in the dark.........can someones give me your best guess as to what I should expect at the pit? Also scheduled to land at BDL around 9:30 or ten. Hope not to be delayed more than I am now. 34.1/32 at the pit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 These kind of events usually display a sneaky element of kindness toward interior ne MA.....2-4". Those appendages of snow from ORH co into ne MA usally work out well here. Just a guess....anecdotal, and largely based off of past obs, as I have been swamped in work all week.

CapturedNature Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 So you thinking 10:00 ish? How about amounts? I;m not sure. he told me It's over. I'm hopeful for 1-3 Maybe mixing around 9 and change over 10-11 would be my guess. I think your call is fine. I'd expect 1-2" with a 3" lollie maybe in Union. We'll know in a few hours...
