I hear ya. You recognized it earlier than most. The GFS ticking east after being so steady, started the red flag waving. Just wasn't 'that storm'. 'That much' in this case, was a mere 75 miles open ocean...

really?? and Ginx just to your SSE had 27" or so? That's a wild gradient

Calling it a very uncertain 3.2" here for today on top of yesterday's 0.3", putting me a hair over 50 for the season. What a storm in SNE. They'll sing songs about this one for generations. One more 6er would be great before we close it out.

Kinda how i felt in Jan 2005. It didn't make sense, where did all the snow go? the woods? somewhere else? It looked like 6-8", with bare grass and a max snow drift of 18". Reports around me were 15-19" and everywhere reported over 12" in every direction. So how could i have a foot or more when the maximum drift was 1.5 feet and the min was 0 in many spots. Didn't add up. This time drifting wasnt nearly as bad due to the consistency of the snow, when its pure powder fuhgetaboutit. This was relatively uniform, especially for the winds.

Well, she doesn't have a weather background. It's possible she stopped doing that but I'm fairly certain at one time she said she did wipe the board every hour. I'm not sure, I don't know who does their measurements or where they're done. It could be that the wind made the measurement inaccurate.

For Burlington 16.0 will do it

Wasn't this thing in like fucking Canada two runs ago?

Really none of the models did well at all with the snow here last night and today. The rgem, NAM, hrrr, globals, etc. this time they were horrible. Reading the comments from the NY forum, they were disappointed in the RGEM. It did pretty bad there too. It’s still a good model, but even good models have their weaknesses I guess. This storm was one of them.

going to sleep early tonight not waiting for models tonight, exhausted great job everyone hope everyone had a blast you guys are the best thank you for the most memorable winter!

80+ DC/BWI would be absolutely savage

hopefully they know how to take proper measurements in wind, becuase I don't. I had spots that didnt have any more than an inch from the beginning of the storm through its end. Tops of our cars had almost no snow on them for the entire storm. No idea how you measure and account for that kind of stuff. I fear that some of those readings tomorrow will say 8 or 10 inches, which is probably not a good representation of what really happened.

Man, what a 30 day stretch you've had. How much all together, do you reckon?

We'll sort of but not entirely for the state itself in general.

Here is the 18z AI EPS. Not much snow this run, but plenty of precip to tap into if it takes the right track, maybe there could be some potential.

It's coming. Just a few more weeks. Hopefully we get a boiler of a spring.

Unbelievable storm all up and down the Eastern Seaboard. CONGRATS ! Those Providence amounts almost resemble a good storm cycle at Mammoth Mtn Ski Resort.

how do they clear? doesnt it just fill back in? I've always wondered this for MWN, how do you measure snowfall in 100mph+ winds?

I would still take 1978's storm over the incredible amounts from the 2015 blitz. 40-45" of snow in one storm vs 115" seasonal...I can't remember what I had before the blitz. Skiing in May at Wachusett was amazing... so it is close. That was epic but the power of 78 and the impacts it had on my life were higher. I do wish I had pics etc from that storm.

Has she ever not been?.

Yes please I'm ready. Though in reality it's probably gonna be cold and rainy

Done for the winter.

Damn it, I’m getting pulled back in. Wife is gonna be mad at me

theres a few cocorahs in the town of Killingly, that will be out tomorrow morning. That will give you a good idea

Measured anywhere from 10-11”… 2-5” was in the forecast today. Looks like deep Winter out there but time to move on to Spring.

LOLOL! Andrew NatureMan!!
