wxeyeNH Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 27F Light to moderate snow. Good snow growth with this last batch coming through 6.75" as of half an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I left this morning with probably 3 otg. A lot of water in it so we’ll see how long it takes to melt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob almost an inch of water in it. Lol. Locked in thru weekend . 30’s next 2 days. Just get thru Friday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get thru Friday Friday will be the day it needs to survive. If it stays kind of in the 40s with a lot of cloud cover then it will prob survive to weekend....but if we tickle 50 with sun, it's gonna vaporize pretty fast in the sun exposed spots anyway. But meh, I don't need to keep this pack...it's not very robust. Hopefully we get two events early next week and then maybe I can think about trying to get a deep pack for a couple weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that there was about 1" of sleet and then freezing rain leaving me with about 3" this morning. That stuff should have some staying power!

It's not all going to come up at once so put down some ice melt today and chop a little this afternoon around the edges or loose parts and put down some more ice melt. Chop some more tomorrow morning and expand on what you loosened today. Put down some more ice melt and repeat on Thursday. It should come up pretty easily.

Heavy as shit to shovel despite being cold. Got the snowpack back over 20" and don't have to worry about any settling, that's for sure. No air in this stuff. PF How did the slopes recover now that dense snow has covered the ice? I have a window to come up and ride tomorrow night through Sunday. Not liking the prospects of more rain.

CoastalWx Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Each day will be some pain. Tippy nape sun and temps above freezing will torch sun areas. And then Friday we cry for mama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry, this snow will have a lot more staying power with all that sleet mixed in. I will be curious to see how long it takes to melt in Metro Boston.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Just measured again in a few spots and solid 5" new on the ground here, that is post sleet and compaction etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my 3+ inches of snow and sleet was already down to about 2 inches of snow and slush this morning after overnight rain with temps in mid to upper 30s. Didn't even bother to clear the driveway, and could already see the pavement thru the slush in some spots. Gonna go fast south of Boston! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Swept 1.4" (0.13" LE) off the board at 9 last evening, and at 7 this morning depth was 8.4-8.8", the average of 8.6" (1.11" LE) bringing the cocorahs report to exactly 10" of 8:1 snow. Only other Maine reports of 10"+ as of 15 minutes ago was Temple, 9 miles to my west. Franklin County ftw (until Aroostook gets done - they may get some 18+ reports there, and 50" pack.) GYX said that dendrite growth wouldn't be all that great. When I finished clearing the driveway at 8:30, maybe another 0.3" on the board, with very light snow/fzdz. Haven't had any high ratio snow yet this season, but the total is well AN and there was 34" at the stake this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take the snow over the sleet anyday. That 1" of sleet would've been 3" of snow with the same staying power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been into the FDZ over the last couple hours but i see those echoes that were over VT are now making there way here, So we will see if we can flip back to snow and add another 1" or so in the next couple hours or so.

If those areas could bring another 2", I'd have the season's 1st overperformer - P&C forecast was 8-12. Highly doubt that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Melting an inch of W.E. is gonna take some effort. I'd be surprised if it all goes by the end of Friday. It might be one of those typical February deals though where the sunny side of a street gets whacked pretty good but the shady side looks untouched. Depends on where you are too...places that got to 38F last night for hours already got hit pretty good even if there's pack left. They probably lost a chunk of water in it. Those that hovered near or below freezing won't go nearly as easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had 198 that season. Oddly, their pack never got deeper than 36", far from their top mark of 62" in 1977, a good winter (146") but no comparison with 07-08. That record winter had some thaws, and apparently some wind - the 14.5" dump at the equinox all came with temps mid 20s but added only 4" to the pre-storm depth.
