walthsnow Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I measured close to 6 in Natick so that belt did pretty decent. Hopkinton maybe was slightly too far SW or that poster was a local min. Cool. I was probably closer to 6 than 7 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Cool. I was probably closer to 6 than 7 then. You might have had 7 if that's what you measured. Someone had to jackpot in that band that was sitting there for a couple hours yesterday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Snow was surprisingly dense. Think there was a lot of riming too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 So I'm done shoveling and I'm going with 4.5" on the bubble here in the Webster Hill neighborhood of West Hartford.......wut a joy that was to shovel compared to the sloppy mashed of Friday......nice pack right now and for once we're looking at a late season pack.....dare I say a Morch pack? Lolz...... Only 3.5" in the elmwood section of town.... 0.27" of liquid so basically 13:1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walthsnow Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 You might have had 7 if that's what you measured. Someone had to jackpot in that band that was sitting there for a couple hours yesterday morning. I measured 7 in a spot that was sheltered from the wind. Other spots were closer to 6. I was surprised at the persistence of the bands. Nice event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Mind you I'm just taking an educated stab at it, but I think that's probably the most likely mechanism for what happened. It's a smaller scale version of the nocturnal LLJ on the Plains. You develop that inversion and the winds can really start to rip just off the deck as they lose frictional drag with the ground. Once you bust the inversion, you have a brief window for some larger gusts before things settle in. Yeah the models showed a decently mixed boundary layer around daybreak when it was fairly dry. As the boundary layer moistened it became a whole lot less impressive. I feel like sometimes we get our best gusts before the snow even starts when the boundary layer is a bit better mixed even when the LLJ becomes much stronger a few hours later.

backedgeapproaching Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 1.4" on .11" LE Guess that falls into the meh category . Highest total I saw in VT via NWS ALY or CoCoRaHS was 4.5" in Woodford at 2K+ in far SVT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Valley Snowman Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 2.7. Looks like a local minimum but I'll take it, I haven't been home during the last two storms so measuring after the fact I might be a tad low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Solid event for you guys. Saw Savoy had 7.0" That's great, it was disconcerting to see bare ground in Savoy SP last week. That place is the SNE king of snow retention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Big white pine damage here at work all over the place, literally hundreds of branches down and 1 whole tree. Being close to Cedar swamp in low elevation the cake remains . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Had 3.2" on 0.22" LE at 7 AM, with light snow falling - might have gotten another tenth or two from that and/or the late morning flurries. Reached the low end of GYX prog of 3-6 for my area. Yesterday was about 1/2° BN after a 15-day run of AN that averaged about +13. Seasonal total now above 60% of avg YTD, still 3rd lowest of 18 for that parameter, and after Sunday it will be dead last as the big storms of 2/10-11/05 and VDay 07 are included.
