HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Just woke up to check the window and looks like between 2-3" on the car. 23/22 SN. Really nice uniform looking flakes so I'll guess we're well over 10:1 here. Wind is starting to gust and I can hear it howling up high. Must have had a band ripping SN+ through here before I woke up b/c when I went to bed at midnight there wasn't a flake flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 up to 32 degrees at the closest mesonet site too me (Woonsocket). Is that a coastal front in our vicinity or just general warm air coming from the southeast? It's ripping here...probably close to 3"/hr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also up higher into the hills and we have a bit of an upslope flow...you'll almost always come in with less than the airport or my area all else being equal at your lower elevation to the ESE.

EastBayWx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Heavy sleet pouring down. After a big front-end dump, looks like RI and SE Mass will probably be dry-slotted. Once again, congratulations Western New England/ NYC area. If anyone sees 20", it will be W Ct or the southern Berkshires. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phishn Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Pretty sure i just had thundersnow. A bit distant...but distinct flash. Could have been a transformer...cant totoally be sure I can verify what you saw. I saw one flash too about this time and I'm a couple miles from you so it was not a transformer. This is the third time in a year for thundersnow here, counting the windex event last winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
