mreaves Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 6.5”-7” here and still snowing lightly, not much accumulation though. Last night I was pretty pleased with my decision to leave the initial inch or two of crud because it meant my driveway did not become a skating rink. Tonight cleaning it, I was less happy with that decision. On a side note to my sledding compadres, the groomer rolled trough my hood about 4:30. All household chores will now be ignored for the most part until the season is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Something has changed. Ripping huge fluffy flakes after small dense stuff the past 24 hours. Good downwind drift of the heavier echos on the strong low level jet into town. The mountain is just getting wrecked as waves of moisture crest overhead.

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 A surface low develops just offshore of ACK, that brings snow showers over the region as a large arctic shortwave dives southeastward southeast of ACK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what (Tom)@GYX was thinking, He was going to talk to the forecaster that did the PNS , To see if some were combined, They did put one out for the 8th, But even if they combined them, There are totals missing, So i don't know what there going to do, Always a tougher task when you get back to back storms.
