Connecticut Appleman Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 5 minutes ago, Damage In Tolland said: The pivot point looks like Central and NE CT It keeps trying to ramp up here and then it flames out. Hopefully the heavy band can push just a little bit further east into Ellington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxBlue Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 This remind me of January 2016 storm when drifting created a problem for snow measurements. We ended up calling it at 14-15". This storm might beat that one for my greatest snow total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Probably down to 1-2”/hr now, but still good growth. Trying to pull one more band overhead from the east with the midlevel pivot over me. It has some momentum so we’ll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambone Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I have no idea how much snow we've gotten. I have drifts on the north side of the house that are about 2' deep. I've shoveled the back deck a half dozen times and every time I go out there's another 6" that's blown off the roof. Clean up is going to be a bear, my driveway is 200 yards long through heavy woods and it looks drifted for the entire length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backedgeapproaching Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 29 minutes ago, snowgeek said: 2-3” of sand here. Horrible snow growth. Alb NWS mentioned 15-20:1. Looks like about 7-8:1. Steady light snow all day. Visibility was 1/4 mile for a while but it seemed like it was more from blowing snow and wind. Meh. Hoping for HVMV convergence to save the day this evening. . Just did a core of 3.8" with .43" liquid. So yea 8-9:1 verified here. Just horrendous snow growth all day. Even Woodford VT only had 3.5" a few hours ago and Landgrove VT at 1800ft near me only 2" at 12pm. 8:1 with temps in the mid teens just proves the fact(that most know in here) that cold temps does not equal ratios. I didn't look, but I know PF was mentioning a day or so ago about some big time issues in the DGZ that pointed to these types of ratios out the far western areas. No Kuchie ratios here.

DomNH Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Snowgrowth is really good here and it continues to come down nicely. Looks like we might sneak into that band from the north for a sweet finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know everyone was preoccupied with the snow but this seemed primed for Boston Harbour. I fear that's what Halifax's waterfront is going to look like. Winds gusting to 72mph at the airport and that's well inland. I mentioned it 3 times but nobody cares about surge Boomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoe456 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Visibility's about the worst it's been the whole day. No idea on measurements since it's being tossed around so much. Wonder if I'm going to get cut off soon as the major band continues to pivot away to my northwest...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotb Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 8 minutes ago, Greg said: Over a foot. 12"+ here on the deck. but very windy. Depths from drifting range from a low point of 12" to as high as 20". I'm dead serious here. I have no choice but to call it over a foot (12"+) How do you measure such powdery snow. Little wind goes a long way. Don't know what I'll personally end up with but looking at the radar and future cast, I think mid tees in inches may not be out of the question. There is no chance that we don't have a foot or more in Andover at this point, and it's blowing and snowing as hard right now as it has all day. I go out with the dog every hour, and make deep impressions in the snow to clear a path for him (he's a little guy) and every hour, it's filled back in. Some of that is drifting, but it's dumping out there. Plow came for the driveway a couple hours ago, and we were at 8-10 inches at that point, and we've had at least 4 since then.

HoarfrostHubb Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 These winds are beefy. Temps are dropping. 12” here, although the wind makes it hard to be sure. The coastal peeps with water better watch for a flash freeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
