One of the weirdest storms I’ve ever worked up here. Huge bust on snow totals - I have nothing on my snow board and snow depth went down a half inch today. I would guess I have around 2”. BUT PWM did verify a blizzard warning.

So who in here plans on getting a full night of sleep tonight ? No reaching for the phone at 1:00 in the morning.

What an epic amazing storm. We may not see this again until next year.

36.2 inches in Warwick, RI according to NBC 10. I lived in Alaska for 10 years and never had 3’ of snow in one storm. This was insane! .

Yeah. As heavy as this snow is, the 3 inches of sleet on top of the snow last storm was brutal.

Most of the snow that fell melted all rdy

Accu-Weather "actual" snow totals seems low in several areas particular in lower Bucks... 31f

This will forever be remembered for me as the winter of two storms, one that wasn't a blizzard but felt like one and the other that was a blizzard but didn't feel like one.

I figured. Generally when they're that bright I hear them.

So so close to this new band developing off shore. Doesn't look like it will clip Boston.. Bummer.

Unlike the park, they do measure and start over every 6 hours. Not only that, they report new snow every hour. It is very unlikely to exceed their totals using a different measuring protocol (non FAA), but that's just the way it is. I don't have a major issue with today. ISP had hours more accumulating snowfall than there was here despite being only 8 or 9 miles away as the crow flies. I am a wee bit envious of those who didn't spend a huge chunk of the storm in a subsidence hole, or whatever that was. On the other hand, we're still digging out and the xc skiing will be great.

My deck snow gauge is approaching 12". There's possibly some drifting near it, but still, I'm surprised we didn't get upgraded to a warning.

Rain gauge didn’t even have 3/4 of an inch in it, so we can talk about temps and ratios and stickage, if even if all those things were good, the moisture just wasn’t there. Basically half what the GFS advertised.

Turning is good if its not in full track mode. In full track mode you need to man handle it unless on even ground. Its a beast though, chewed through this in 1st gear except for the deeper drifts I had to feather it like you mentioned

This one not just went south, the snow portion really withered away. Model reliability is just not there right now.

Maybe there is big snowstorm voodoo magic from being a whiney masshole…

Still accumulating nicely here... ~0.5"/hr, it looks like. Total of ~20"

I'll be honest, I'm only judging based on whats close to the house. Sometimes that's denser because it melts a little from the heat leaking out and making it settle. I'm actually hopeful it's more powdery so I can try and cut through it with my very undersized snow thrower if I chop it down appropriately.

Radar is filling back up over RI/E MA with the approach of the deformation axis on the backside. Probably going to make a run at 40" in spots.

Reports of 33 in Dartmouth, and 31 inches in both Somerset and Berkeley. And it’s still coming down.

It’s a very standard way for us to score. Especially with marginal air masses. I’ve seen hella worse looks than this.

See now that's ridiculous. If there was 0.15 inches of precipitation since 1PM (according to their official obs), it should have translated into approx. 1.5". Same thing happened with the January storm.

ah, you got the track one, we decided to get the 28" "smart trac" drive, honestly I prefer my old ariens, 0 point turn, and 1st gear was slow... this one is more powerful but goes where it wants not where I want, and needs a gear between 0 and first, I have to feather the clutch to go slower, but it doesn't struggle that's what matters, it throws snow like 40', how's the turning on that one?

I’m ready to be hurt
