That's a max of 41F. http://w1.weather.gov/data/obhistory/KIJD.html IJD and Tolland are 2 completely separate climates. Like not even close. They are a valley pit that downslopes from 3 directions. My climate is akin to ORH but to a lesser degree. Elevated interior. At any rate, the entire CT valley in CT stayed at or below freezing the entire event. The warmerst I got at 1k was 34.9 for 1 hour. At 6:00 it went above freezing and by 7:15 it was back below with zr at 31.1. It had nothing to do with the surface warm front which only made into SE Mass. The low tracked over LI to GON to south of Boston. Will and Brian both pointed out it was from mixing ahead of the cold front. Its great to challenge ideas and try to out think models, but it’s another thing to accuse people of making things up . Especially when you are completely unfamiliar with CT Climo and climates. It’s good that you were able to learn from this, but you were incorrect in several of your post Mortem points. Hopefully we have more events left in what’s turned out to be a mediocre winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we have more events left in what’s turned out to be a mediocre winter I'm not going to debate any of these details with you. It's simply not worth it. We don't see eye to eye on a lot of this stuff, and I don't expect that to change now. Whether you agree or not, the key point i made regarding the surface CF is relevant as ever, and my 20 mile NW error makes perfect sense given the difference of temperatures in IJD 41F versus your backyard 35F and the duration of temps above freezing (7 hours versus 2 hrs, respectively). The furthest northwest the surface cold front made it was over your head, to ORH up to Seabrook NH. I had it going about 20 miles further NW before crashing back southeast.

We've had a white Christmas, 12''+ blizzard, nickels and dimes all over the place, multiple legitimate ZR events, and days and days of severe cold. It's not mediocre it needs to freaking end.

dendrite Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Always interesting comparing to the local cocorahs guys. Multiple buns to the Northfield guy with over an inch more of snow and much less liquid. Northfield 2.8E 9.5”/0.70” Tilton-Northfield 3.3NE 8.5”/1.04” Belmont 1.7SW 8.8”/1.09” Northfield 1W (me) 8.1”/0.95” Looks like we had a good 1”/0.10” less than those sites a handful of miles west near Franklin.

All across New England, there is the sound of scraping, shoveling, gear being loaded and vehicles being started. It's officially a powder day. Overnight we picked up four inches of fluffy stuff on top of the six we saw during the day yesterday for a storm total of 10-12 inches and a one-week total of nearly two feet. The skies are clearing this morning and we are looking at a perfect day of skiing and riding. There's not much more to be said about it. If you're the kind of person who reads this report, then it's going to be the kind of day you dream about. This is the report you've been waiting for.

It’s been better in NNE. I don’t think anyone in SNE thinks it’s been a great winter. There’s been plenty of events , so it’s been fun .. but if it continues the rest of the way as it has,, and we come in BN on snowfall, it will be remembered as mediocre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Around 7.5" final from this storm, feels like good QPF too. 16.5" on the ground. Saw JSpin was up to 22" depth. Definitely looks like mid-winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
