powderfreak Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Glad NW CT and Berks got good snow. They deserved it lol only this winter is 3" of fluff "good snow". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 4 Seasons Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 3.3" after taking three measurements and averaging them. Lots of drifting. Bit dissapointed thought it would be closer to 4. Very light sugar right now. Snow is heavy and dense to shovel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Radar looks like garbage up here right now Dry air is killing us up here. MPV at 1,200ft has been under some good echos even borderline moderate, but 10 minutes ago is 25/0 with 30% RH. Hey at least getting virga is an upgrade on this winter. Big step in the right direction. Even if it doesn't make it to the surface, we can at least watch the radar change colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Met hobbyist question. What caused that dry down burst of winds this morning. I saw the pressure drops,all I can imagine is like dropping a rock in a pond the biggest wave is the first. By far way above any other winds we had today.

bristolri_wx Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 According to BOX, blizzard conditions met at six sites... https://nwschat.weather.gov/p.php?pid=201602082238-KBOX-NOUS41-PNSBOX Also noticed this tidbit on the 4:30 discussion... "One possible contributing factor to varying quantitative precipitation forecast solutions from the models leading up to this event was the lack of special 06z/18z soundings/balloon launches leading up to the developing ocean storm along with the lack of any dropsondes from aircraft." You think a storm this big they would have some additional investigation, I guess that only happens for potential blizzards in DC/NYC ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Blizzard conditions can occur without heavy snow though. I don't think low vis with wind was in question. The amounts were just too high. Live by the NAM, die by the NAM. As I said, eventually the NAM will bite you in the ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
