Temp up to 32.5°F thanks to a SE wind and downsloping. Although I don't think downslope will play a big role with regards to QPF, it will act to warm my BL temps enough to reduce ratios. 4-6" should about it here I think...as this thing will end around 00z locally. That was a nice batch you were under--the same one that ran through here. Hopefully we can get a few more of those before this thing's done.

I was a little wary of all the CT/NY'ers heading to Mount Snow this morning., Lol, I think we had enough on the subject--we know where the respective parties stand. He was from NJ, I will be shocked if he makes it there. Don't have 1/4 mile marker, but pretty close to some S+ out there now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather be in your location or my VT property for this. You should get a nice 8"-9" or so, maybe 12" up above 2K in S VT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Very good snow growth in the heavier stuff which should bode well for the rest of this. Coming down nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if on the off chance you did, the warmth is all in the low levels, so it will still snow even if it's 33-34° F. Snow beginning to increase a bit here now. 33.1° F.

ncforecaster89 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Hi all! My wife, 9 year old son, and I are currently driving through CT. on our way towards a hotel we have reserved overnight in Wolfeboro, NH. I will spend the upcoming night chasing the best banding, and hopefully thundersnow, in any areas within a 50 mile radius. Hope we all do well and stay safe!

I'm not that concerned about mixing, just low ratios in general. Snow's now picked up here quite a bit, too. Guessing vis down to about 1/2 mile or so. Decent flakes. Quick jump to 27.3*.

My guess is you will prob be in a pretty good spot...maybe have to chase a bit east up toward IZG (Freyberg ME) for most intense bands of the slight east bump is real.

mahk_webstah Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Went from mod occasionally heavy to steady light. Radar returns bad to the switch but maybe that improves as the system develops.

I agree with Mitch that you will be lucky to hit freezing based on how your area runs. 7-8:1 is for the slop areas that are dealing with the 32.5-34F +SN. I'm more worried about the ticks east and the best dynamics sliding to my east through Maine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
