Hopefully I can get back there before dark to video it. I had headed out for the Dunkin Donuts out there and was really impressed going over the French King Bridge.

Lots of big branches and some trees down around here as I drive around It was run of the mill 45-55 cutter. Not sure why so many making a big deal when we’ve had way worse.

I'm not making it into a big deal, just the sustained duration was impressive. Not sure if it was localized or something. Nothing earth shattering, just impressive.

Of course smart people know that without the cold winds would underperform. You guys might be the best at Meteorology but reading comprehension might be lacking. Also we all know you Mets can predict the weather with the best of them but they apparently forgot to teach observational skills, you are over dependent on ASOS AWOS as verification. It has happened every single wind storm. We are in desperate need for more WXflow stations in elevated areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 3pm 35F Snow flurries have started. Storm Summary Highest temp 54.7F Highest wind gust 27mph 1.90" rainfall Rain was moderate to heavy yesterday morning. Brief lull midday. Temperatures in the AM in the upper 30's and slowly rose into the low 40's. Got into the warm air at 3pm with a 10F temperature rise within 30 minutes or so. 12 hours of temperatures in the low 50's with matching dews wiped out my 5" cement pack. Still snow left in the woods and north facing slopes. Although I got into the warm air mid afternoon the elevations just below me stayed in the upper 30's until about midnight when the warm air made it all the way down thus more snow at lower elevations that at our house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
