It was a beautiful day up here.  Some smoke A fair amount of smoke looking out at the distant ridges.  We are starting to dry out the surface.   This past week has been dry other than about .10" on the 1rst.

We did have a 5 minute sprinkle earlier today.  I notice some drops covering about 1/3 of the deck surface at the height.  Does that count as a T for the day?

Enjoy your soak down in SNE.

Can you imagine the consternation alone if this was a fcst snowstorm?  24 hr ago, DXR would have had 2 ft and PVD a foot, and a dusting at BOS.  CoastalWx would be like, "HOW CAN THIS BE????!!!!" and basically ready to call it quits, and then the big backlash comes in and saves the day!

Reminds a bit of the Bliz of 96 in ern MA.  Got about 5" in Woburn w/ an initial burst in the evening, then MEH for the next 8 hr (2SM -SN and I got about 2").  Then the "backlash" came in and I got another 8".  So a great storm total (for 1996), but it was piecemeal.  Not a smooth event!

Also, one of the storms in the Jan-Feb 2015 blitz.  SNE got a burst of S+ in the evening, and then it completely stopped, and BKN conditions w/ stars visible along the S Coast.  This mesoscale thing w/ a arc of snow moved into srn NH, then drifted back S after midnight, and then incredible development w/ super TS++ predawn into later that morning.  Rumor has it CoastalWx passed out a few times due to his ecstasy!  :lol: 

Again, not a smooth event, but it all worked out in the end!
