wxeyeNH Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 As storm ends it has turned to light rain 32.1F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Going with a final of 5.5" although the depth of the lumps goes from 5" to 6". Just did a core sample and the water equiv is 0.84". Franklin Falls Dam to my west comes in with 0.91". I may have lost a little to the brief mix with rain if some drained out of the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I'm thinking Paris to Norway got crushed the most along this stretch of 26. I haven't been out in about 2 hours. Based on crude measurements (1.5ish iPhone 5 depth) I figured 7 or so inches and we for another few after that. I bet the mountain reports 6-10 ish as it was definitely accumulating faster earlier at elevation. Nice storm. No mix ever here but only the heaviest echoes produced the fluff. Everything else hurt at speed while skiing. I don't think the heavier snow extended even 10-15 miles nw of here based on radar. Mountain really needed the snow. Was fairly dense too good base for them on the unopened trails. Epic Monday skiing incoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Being up here the lack of obs in the PNS is funny. Not as many people of course but also probably more used to the snow?

Allenson Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Glad I've got a few more days off, including today to clean this mess up. 7.8" is the final tally for here with a water content of 0.72". Ended with just a touch of ZR last night after rates sharply dropped off. Temp didn't move overnight: still 31F. Awaiting the cold front now...

tamarack Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Beautiful fluff-bomb at my place, 11.0" in 8.5 hr, with about 8" from 7-11 last evening. Interesting drive home from Farmington about 9 PM (after our once-postponed Christmas program finished), saw 3" in the church parking lot, and 5" at home. That core was 0.33", for 15:1 ratio. Snow was finished by 1:30, and at 5 AM I measured the after-9 accum at 6.0", with only 0.28", ratio 21:1. Total LE of 0.61 for a surprisingly high ratio of 18:1. Temps were near 20 throughout the hvy stuff, lovely dendrites and aggregates drifting in the light wind. Now 22" at the stake, will probably be a couple inches settled by tonight.

Definitely one of those events where the winners were really winners and the losers were really losers. We had isothermal soundings at the office to around 3000 feet last night. We happened to be isothermal at 30ish, PWM was isothermal around 32, you would have been isothermal around 20 (-7 C). So basically those areas isothermal in the low 20s had a very deep snow growth zone, good for high ratios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkO Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Ellsworth is.the town to my left reporting 9. I would guess 8 for here without measuring. Got a crust on top, with some light snow happening. Nearly lost power 5 times last night. Nice overperformer. 28.5/25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically those areas isothermal in the low 20s had a very deep snow growth zone, good for high ratios. This time the Route 2 snowshield worked in reverse, with some towns along/near that road getting a foot or more. The GYX lqiud forecast for the area was pretty much dead on; the ratios made for a happy bust. Also noticed this AM that the BD didn't get all that far SW, as many NH points never got under 30.
