codfishsnowman Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 better snow burst, road quickly covered....several hours of this and we have a mid winter like snowstorm here, certainly a mid winter like day anyways this is some of the coldest daytime snow i have seen in many years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostonseminole Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 moderate snow now..wow.. much more than I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjn Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 This is for like 5 miles north of the south coast of RI. And is probably the warmest profile for the next 18 hours. It's the RAP btw. Time to revise the maps, again. I'd like to say I knew things would be further south than progged yesterday, but I certainly didn't think decent totals would get THAT far south.

geo1 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 If this keeps up I may have to shovel for the 3rd time this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 moderate snow now..wow.. much more than I expected. Yea, this is much better than yesterday. No complaints...won't JP, but that is fine.....respectable event, especially given time of year. Antecedent air mass helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 This area may end up being the JP for W MA. Should break 4" in within the next half hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like January...I would not know that this is an April event......even light fall rates adhering to windshields.....often tough to pull that off in latter Feb.

CoastalWx Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The GFS had a weaker area of lift up your way Hippy into VT and NH. Sometimes there are hints you can look for. It actually worked out well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually worked out well. Was a good spot for H7 too...decent saturation in SGZ for the first half of the system before it dried out a bit...I figured yesterday they needed to see some good bands by 10-11 am this morning, and they definitely were able to get them.

Yeah agree. NAM was a bit too dry there, but GFS was better up that way. Better forcing from Jet too up that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually worked out well. Sugarbush, VT reporting 7" of snow since 6am. I have my doubts as that's way up here and the highest total anywhere I've seen.

CapturedNature Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Mid 20's? Have you been living in Raleigh? He must have missed the couple of events last year when we were in the low teens or even single numbers while it was snowing or referring to April but then it appears that it's never happened so I don't know how it could be years.

ORH_wxman Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 This area may end up being the JP for W MA. Should break 4" in within the next half hour. You have a good chance at 5" if you are already almost at 4"....still a solid 1-2 hours of good echoes west of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
