HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I'm not sure elevation even helped out here. I just talked to my friend in Colrain (1200') and he said barely a glaze there. MPM was saying the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks like a ORH hills and points N storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Bottomed out around 30.5F and its been steadily rising ever since the icing started to get noticeable....def latent heat rise now. 31.7F now. Pretty good glaze on elevated surfaces and grass but noted the sidewalk was mostly wet. I did throw salt on it a few days ago in last week's system so not sure if that is playing a role.

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 30.4F. ZR i thought my front concrete steps were icy, but they were just wet. But the iron railings are icy and our asphalt walkway and driveway are a rink. I’m confused by the steps though Decent accretion on bushes and the railings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 There's a clock right now on this because it is in-situ for now...the tug of the mesolow doesn't happen until later on toward morning. So we can't really advect the lower dews in from Maine until then and by then most of the precip is out of here anyway. ORH has a couple tenths of QPF already, so if this keeps up for a few more hours, there could be some accretion approaching a quarter inch in the higher elevations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Oh, and they did close Wachusett Mountain early, so our son was able to drive back here by 8PM. He said the roads were just wet until our side street 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably most exciting event all season I'd guess a lot of people just figured there was not much to see here. Kinda hope that's the right call. not interested in a lot of ice. 32/31 here.

That would be the max I would think. 0.1”-0.15” seems more likely. Maybe 0.2” The heavier echoes seem to be trucking along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
