CoastalWx Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 This may get people mad but i believe Nemo was better than Juno due to the fact that Juno underperformed as compared to modeling (30 plus was not as widespread) while Nemo overperformed with a greater area of 30 thank modeled I think that's subjective as there are many metrics to gauge storms.

In Connecticut there's just no comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 can someone tell me which MR and SR guidance did well finding nemo? I'm not Ginx where I can pull up verification scores from the 10 computers I have running in my basement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have anything quantitative but here is a frame of the 02/08/13 12z 4 km NAM and it seemed to pick up on the band decently: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice1972 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 So epic......probably my fav in the 11 yrs we've been here.....Feb 2005 a close second..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteLawns Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Feb 8 is my birthday. Three yrs in a row with snow on that date but '13 was in a class by itself. At around 11:00 pm it was zero vis, and just wailing. The tree damage here to S shore was very extensive. I remember some structural damage in NB. Haha same here never fails.

But nam was all over the place, I hear, leading up. I know gfs was way east, prob had weenies nervous. I imagine euro did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Lol the band had already formed when that initialized No, it initialized on 12z Feb 8th...the band was in the evening between about 00z-04z (Feb 9th in Zulu time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 NEMO was exactly my fifth favorite storm, lol. Only 17 inches here. Jan 05 and Juno were my favorites, I got 35" in 05 and 33" in Juno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NAM just had to pick the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what you mean...that CT band really didn't originate in it's uber-intense form until the storm was starting to mature to our southeast that evening. The CCB was already developing down by Delaware or just offshore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I thought it was all the same band, but I take your word for it if it just looked like it I see what you are saying...it's essentially just the CCB core and banding will tend to regenerate over the area of best ML fronto...so as it propagates up the coast, it can look like one continuous band if the ML fronto if in a consistent spot. The CT band intensified much more than further south and also compared to further northeast...one of the reasons that event was so special down there.

It's my top storm that can remember, but the one thing that bugs me about it is that it happened so late. I stayed up for that mega band but I fell asleep before it pivoted back from central CT. The other thing that was cool is that it kept snowing for what seemed like forever. It's like the last band just slowly dissolved over my head.

That was a great storm...probably #3 on my personal list behind December 1992 and April 1997. Last year's January blizzard was close...we actually got more snow in last year's blizzard vs Feb 2013 (34.5" vs 28.7") but I thought Feb 2013 was a better storm...it had higher winds and a more "true blizzard" feel to it vs last year. January 2005 had a true blizzard feel to it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father lives in Fairfield 2 towns east and ended up with 35 inches. We "missed" the band and still ended up with 22 inches. Amazing storm.

I wish someone here has a video of what the crush band looked and felt like. Another amazing fact is the 22 inch line went all the way to the NYC boarder in Yonkers. If u get a chance look at the NOAA totals for the storm and the consistency of 22 inches in every town is amazing. I think the Bronx section of NYC even got about 16.

EastonSN+ Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Another amazing component was the merge of the 2 systems pulling the mega band west and getting 16 inch totals all the way into northeast NJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 It's prob a good thing I missed this cuz I might have MPMed my way to 20", missing the crush band by 20 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
