HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I give them credit for opting against the advisory I thought would follow after the gfs yesterday. Not sure the extent that this stuff in the Greens and ENY might pull east later. If it does someone out there could see 4" yet I suppose. Was there anything in Amherst or B-town?

tamarack Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Nah, Just put Winter Tires on. Sand in the Trunk and you're good to go for the most part. That combo - with studded tires - got my '69 Nova coupe (1st new car) thru a lot of storms. And if things go sour, you've already got some sand to help out. Measured 1.3" at my place about 6:45, with maybe 3/4" in Auigusta when I got there 7:30. -SN since then, maybe another half inch, temps low 20s.

jamesnichols89 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Surface low is developing just SSE of the benchmark at 1008mb, soon the winds will turn to the northeast and cold air will drain southward at the surface turning the rain over snow here on Cape Cod, MA. Those southeasterly winds really can turn on the furnace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIcoastalWX Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 33.1/31 - LIght to Moderate Snow About 3/4" of new snow. Winds have gone from calm to a 5 to 10mph NW direction. Snow consistency has changed from large flakes to smaller medium sized flakes in the last 15 minutes - visibility remains between 1/2 and 3/4 mile.

tavwtby Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 From ALY AFD this morning: Near term /until 6 PM this evening/...as of 930 am EST...snow has become moderate to heavy at timesacross a large portion of the forecast area including the capitalregion...northern Catskills...N-cntrl Taconics...and southern Vermont as thestrong differential vorticity advection from the short-wave troughcoupled with low-level convergence evident in the Mohawk/HudsonRiver valley and a saturated column are focusing the snow.An additional 1 to 3 inches is possible...and the advisory willremain up to the north...and we will extend it to 1 PM in terms ofthe snowfall. We will use Special Weather Statement statements outside theadvisory...instead of flip flopping back and forth on the headlines. This is not a classic clipper...since a secondary low has formedjust south and east of Long Island /more of a hybrid system/. Expect a 2to 6 snowfall across most of the region...with isolated higheramounts...and isolated lower amounts. Highs temperatures will be close to current readings in the 20s to l30s.An Arctic front will swing through this afternoon.There will be scattered snow showers around and perhaps even anisolated snow squall this afternoon. However the big story will bestrong gusty winds reaching 35-40 miles per hour most places which will beginto drive temperatures downward. After cresting midday...they willdrop back through the 20s during the afternoon/teens Adirondacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Timing and road surfaces were initially wet but quickly refroze sort of like what happened on VT Rt 89 during a 1/4" squall this year. Oh yeah that 1/4" every 10 minutes squall that left 3-4" in an hour, that the one you were thinking of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea cuz that 1/2 inch squall traffic issues from melt refreeze never happens in the great state of Vt, please. There are hundreds of accidents every year across this nation with an inch of snow, its not how much, in fact deep snow is easier to drive on. Your earlier comment was wrong.

jamesnichols89 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Lightning developing on the southeastern flank of the upper level disturbance fueling the secondary low development off of the NC coastline. Watch this explode over the next several hours could favor further west development of the surface low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Back then, your nova was just a car. Would you drive your nova today in the snow? ... That's why I'm not going anywhere today. Btw, sorry for the o/t. Sure, especially w/studded tires. It had better traction than my current ride, a 2011 Ranger 2WD with all-seasons (haven't bought the snows yet), even with the firewood I put in its bed. And my commute includes the aptly-named Mile Hill, a 300' elevation gain with a sharp (and reverse-banked) corner at the bottom, negating any run-up speed. Very light snow now in AUG, with tiny flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
