dendrite Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I'm impressed at the inversion we're holding after 5hrs of -SN/SN so far. Gunstock is up to 16F around 1350' while it's 7F down here at 615ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does okay for it's 12 years. is the 10% use for cruising downtown in the summer months, windows rolled down, with dance music on full blast?

RIcoastalWX Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 13 minutes ago, Typhoon Tip said: you might actually flip back and forth a couple times before finally committing ... if the p-type algorithms are any guide (and they are usually good to within 80 to 90% of truth) that transition zone is presently slammed up against the shore and is wavering. Also, there is clear indication for an interval of pretty heavy fall rates about to sweep through... Granted this is a waa snow in a purer form so in theory the growth region should be collapsing in time, but there could still be some big humdinger golf ball aggregates near the true transition as that heavier stuff comes through. These things can be hinky like this... you could go squarely to freezing rain... then, at like 34 when that's ended, a brief period of pingers kicks in then it rains... Ur like, what - 28 degrees with a light N wind and light to moderate freezing rain. It's been about 1/2 hour now - and there hasn't been a ping or snowflake since so I'm assuming there won't be much flipping or flopping from here on out. This transition was committed!

weathafella Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Currier and Ives look. Eyeballing maybe 2.5-3, snow intensity increasing-will go out with the doggy soon and get a real idea but it's a wonderful snowy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 With a couple more hours still in the tank, methinks they may want to up this....

moneypitmike Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 It's just dumping. Plain and simple. This will turn out to be a pretty decent month for GC. Too bad we'll have very little to show for it come New Year's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanks45 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Right at 5" now, flake size is getting a bit bigger and it is starting to come down heavier...Hoping the transition isn't too close, would love to pull off 6".

powderfreak Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Just absolutely ripping out. Vis here at the mountain is probably under 1/4sm right now. Probably 1-2"/hr in this band that is strengthening overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Seems like decent snow growth here, but I'll take a core at 10am. We have a monster isothermal layer around -11C to -12C from the sfc up to 600mb. That's not exactly primed in the max zone around -15C (+/- 3C), but it's not crappy either.

We've got massive fluffy dendrites up here but it might also be this 30-35dbz band...flakes were smaller in the lighter stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
