Sugarloaf1989 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 What? 28.8 here at the Pit, high of the day. http://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KMASHELB3#history Fog is thickening as is the glaze that's steadily building up. Trees quickly getting the 'winter wonderland' look to them. Is Leon getting larger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Looks like GYX was a snow hole, just 4.7" But it's 6.6:1 almost snow making kind of snow. Same ratio I had for the stuff that fell after 7 AM yesterday. Though I was in AUG all day, I saw no evidence of any IP at home last evening when I was clearing off the car (the Subaru had stayed in the driveway all day) or the porch steps, just sugar. Maybe that ratio change marked when the warming aloft reached southern Franklin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was freezing drizzle too, as my car was iced up on the north side. But mostly it was just pixie dust snowfall all evening that probably had terrible ratios.

powderfreak Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Plus you have people that call and say, "I have 6 inches here in X town" but you really have no idea if they mean it looks like 6 inches or I estimate 6 inches, when it's actually 4.5. Haha, that's why I always try to send a photo in with my reports to BTV. I notice sometimes if I send a report without a photo it says "Public" but if I send a photo of one of the mountain snow boards or my backyard snow board my report will say "Trained Spotter." lol.

powderfreak Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Who doesn't love a good FZFG glaze? Yeah talk about wintery appeal....not sure anything does it better than a good riming event. The type of stuff that turns evergreens into snow ghosts on the upper mountain. Like a mix of freezing fog and -SN drizzle. If there ever was a snow drizzle, it was last night. It dropped an inch of really dense small flakes that stuck to everything and just helped the rime accumulate. Then another inch of fluffier stuff fell this morning with good snow growth showers. The end result is a scene that is about as aesthetically pleasing to a winter lover as it can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w1pf Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 was hoping for the 36F predicted today, actual high IMBY was 31.7 .. hopefully we'll get some sun tomorrow to melt the permafrost.. I was driving back from the inlaws in VA when this mess fell and solidified, so I have a bit of a mess in the driveway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I'm not sure how much zr will be an issue tonight. Temp is already up to 28.5 and most spots outside of NE Mass are in the 30's. And that doesn't even touch upon the warm ground issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Event totals: 6.6” Snow/1.12” L.E.

So the above totals represent the final numbers for the storm at our site. Details from the 12:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.3 inches New Liquid: 0.01 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 30.0 Snow Density: 3.3% H2O Temperature: 34.3 F Sky: Cloudy Snow at the stake: 6.5 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
