CoastalWx Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 11 minutes ago, OceanStWx said: One thing I keep seeing on Bufkit forecast soundings is that the first 10-12 or so inches have deep saturation through the DGZ, but the next 6-10 the DGZ dries out. I would be pretty wary of that additional snow unless that profile changes significantly on these 12z runs. Yep. I know we were hammering that point yesterday. For winds, looks like mixing (although typically inverted in the interior with low level cold) could be an issue. We don't have the arctic air like we do earlier in the season along with cooling 925 temps. That could be nuts where it pounds at 32F with 40-50moh winds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Still flashes much of NH to snow around midnight and then pounds through late morning. 2m is pretty cold too…subfreezing here all day. 3k does keep SE NH with off and on IP issues through morning.

dryslot Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 The SLP is taking its time to get going is allowing for a warm air intrusion in the mid levels before it gets pinched off on the Nam that happens rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rimetree Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Should be interesting to see how things develop later tonight. Always a snowball's throw away from significant impact being closer to the coast, but at least it's not boring. It would be nice to see mood flakes into the weekend but I'm guessing it'll just be cloudy/drizzly for the most part. 43/35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 9 minutes ago, dryslot said: The new buzz phrase is the PDC maps. They nailed a couple events though but that was more boundary layer warmth than mid-level warmth… where 10:1 maps had 12-15” of snow at 33-35F that verified 4” of slush like the PDC had. I know Ray had an event too that those maps nailed over the 10:1. Guess it’s boundary temp related. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When showing 1” QPF at 33-34F and you get 3-4” on the ground after 18 hours of wet snow that the clowns had 10”+. The 10:1 maps to me have been worse this year, maybe because of how marginal each event has been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I’m going to guess soil temps are factored into those depth maps. 4”/8” here is 40F and I tend to run cool locally. So the model probably isn’t liking snow falling onto 40-50F soils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
