The Presidential Range on a bluebird day after the coastal storm:

Wind and sun making forms on the deck rail

BOX point and click mentions 2-4” I take the under

That 21" in Andover looks little high/suspect. Here in Wilmington there was about 13"-14" (according to my best measurements) Wakefield had about 18" and the other spotter down Wilmington Road near Pinehurst had 15.2".

1/4"

Big boys crying for their Mommas

Yeah. I could see that in areas still digging out. I was referring more to Kevin’s mention of hill towns.

temps dropped into the upper 20' s in nyc during the height of the storm.

It came to Papa

Yeah the west slope gets probably on averages a solid 8-10” less per year than equivalent elevation on the east slope of ORH hills. The events you clean up really good in are those westerly component flow events at the sfc. They just aren’t super common. The SWFEs are always fun for most since they remove a lot of the orographic effects and it’s usually just latitude/longitude.

1-2 starts at 530- ends around 9am

My best titled thread ever.

What does it have for NE NJ

Would be 4th if they had counted the .15 qpf the fell after their final measurement...assuming 10-1. So lame. .

The historical Max and anomaly is March 1960. Maybe the month I dream about experiencing the most. In March 1960, the Northeast saw a relentless pattern that produced 7 distinct measurable snow events for the Harrisburg (MDT) area, totaling that record-setting cumulative amount. It wasn't just one "Superstorm"; it was a "parade" of systems that kept the ground white for nearly the entire month. Here is how that active March unfolded for Harrisburg: March 1960 Storm Timeline (Harrisburg/MDT) | Date | Snowfall Amount | Notes | |---|---|---| | March 3 | 10.5" | The primary "anchor" storm of the month. | | March 10 | 1.8" | A cold-sector clipper system. | | March 16 | 3.2" | Moderate overrunning event. | | March 17 | 3.0" | St. Patrick's Day system. | | March 22 | 2.0" | Late-season coastal influence. | | Minor Events | 2.1" | Combined totals from minor dustings (March 4, 7, 8, 21, 24). | | Total | 22.6" | (Catalog sum for distinct events) | Prior to this month that winter had produced 27" of snow, similar to us now. But March was notice to all the new decade was a different beast Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

No Ruth's Chris for you.

Now it has a half inch or less except east of the city

Neither do I.

It flips around too much for my liking. Too many Big run to run changes; if 0z mesos follow suite then I would take note.

Just catching up on reading all these ob posted for this storm. Attached is the CG plot from around 3am Monday. That is a *lot* of CGs for S+ bands well N in the cold sector of a coastal, looks like several dozen over a 2 hr period. I can't recall that so many near or over SNE for a snowstorm, even the Bliz of 93. On the BOX radar from 257am Mon attached, the uber snow weenies here I bet can answer this question. That much solid 30 dBZ in multiple bands for for a SNE snowstorm? Often it is more peppered dBZ 30-35 within 20-29 dBZ for bands like this, but not so solid. So how does this radar rank for S+ weenie bands? And BOX radar was not running "hot." I checked OKX at the same time and the dBZ matched over SE CT.

Looks like we are 10 inches above normal compared to the normal this time of year. Still time to add on. Can we get 50 or even 60. Still plenty of time.

It is intriguing to think of the societal impact if that SE Mass firehose was a bit north and going from BOS to HFD… instead of like Long Island to PVD/TAN ENEward. I would’ve enjoyed that low tracking over PVD to BOS, lol.
