Hazey Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Quite the storm raging in Winterpeg. Getting rocked with 16" of snow and 50mph gusts. Would love to be there. Good ol' prairie blizzard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a tiny bit of shore ice on Long Pond (typically late to "catch") this morning, though I had my 1st single digit min - 8 or 9F. I'm hoping my low-LE snow cover can last into the weekend's cold air and get temps below zero. The November climate. 23 is the warmest ever low for the month at CON, and 2nd warmest ever at PWM. Month's low here was 17, tying 1998 (first year here) for mildest. The Nov. avg was 6th mildest, over 2F behind 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metagraphica Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Stepping down nicely now... 25 this morning IMBY. Coldest morning of the year. Local beaver pond was 90% skimmed over with ice. Starting to look and feel like winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Actually had some ice on the local shallow pond near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup A couple of the ponds I drive by had enough ice to get coated with snow yesterday morning. This morning the ice extended significantly away from the snow, although I would imagine it is "wafer thin" 22.1F was the lowest I saw this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in 1935 November bottomed out at 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hits keep coming for the mountains? Forecast has a dusting-2" tonight and tomorrow, then mesoscale 2-6" on Thursday/Thursday night. Overall QPF for the event over a 24hr period from midnight Thursday to midnight Friday is less than a tenth for the valleys, but upwards of close to a half inch in the heart of the lake effect band and the northern Greens around Jay Peak. First guess at snow ratios puts us around 15:1 on average, yielding around 6-9" across southeastern St. Lawrence County prompting the issuance of a Lake Effect Snow Watch there. Across the rest of the area a dusting to and inch in the valleys is possible where snow may briefly mix with rain due to warm boundary layer temps, while portions of north-central and northeast Vermont could see 2-4" and the highest summits from Mount Mansfield to Jay Peak upwards of 4-6".

EPS today would say it would be an epic collapse to miss out on the coming pattern. I don't think one member had less than a foot for NNE mountains in the next two weeks.

Spanks45 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Temperature continues to drop as well as the dewpoint....Late this afternoon we were 44 degrees with a 33 DP, it is currently 40.2 with a 28 DP. Might just be able to squeak out some snowflakes here in the heavier bursts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground still had some remnant snow from yesterday which froze solid, besides that it really didn't feel that cold. We have dropped to 34.4 at the moment with a 50/50 mix of rain and snow.

It's funny though b/c I think it's only snowing here up on the hill. At the midtown campus it was raining (that was an hour ago) and at the bottom of the hill it was only a mix. We could end up with maybe 2'' or a bit more given the intensity and heavier band about to come through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 yeah ... i didn't post this - not attempting a credit grab.. but, this system did look pretty close to mirroring the last one's productivity more or less. difference? wet snow versus more powdery. along Rt poop there was about 1" of classic christmas cling on everything. 34 F in the driveway, with tree limbs and telegraph wires all stenciled in black and white. the air was a bluish gray tint, and the nerd in me took a moment to acknowledge snow grains bouncing about the wind shield after it was cleared. it was a really a perfect seasonal homage .. unfortunately, i started south on 190 and by the time i got to the worcester exchange with 290, it was nearing 40 and just wet.... with only hints that it snowed anew.
