I wonder where that idiot troll who said the HRRR was only showing 0.3” qpf for DC is now? Hope he’s seen this. Congrats on what looks like an overperformer there. Been a while since your area jacked/trends kept getting better and better as the event got closer. Expecting us to get into the goods in the next two weeks hopefully. Have a putrid 1.5” here in East Boston, MA so far. Hoping for a 2015 type repeat here for the second half! Probably not a popular thought in this sub forum but congrats on tonight and enjoy it!

Lol once again Pete B mentioned it this time saying "Some controversy regarding the top spot. After speaking to someone who is close to the reporter of the 31 in Wilmington" he then said the same thing about the 6 hour clearing method saying "this is the right way to measure snow" and "the NWS said 'what? 31in is too high' but I think it's good and very close to the 28.3 report Methuen." Lol this is getting hysterical.

He didn't meantion him by name and by seeing what you posted just before me answers how he found out about it, but he definitely thinks it legit by his "discounted by some" tone and the fact that he said it on-air

Lol yeah he does get a lot of bashing on here but I don't think he is terrible. First winter watching him and have noticed a warm, anti-snow bias but his delivery on TV is one of the best

Well there we go. You got to it before me

Pete Bouchard on his 5pm broadcast while showing the totals graphic with Methuen as the highest said: "The real jackpot, 31in in Wilmington. Old school measurement of 6 hours of snow, clear the board. 6 hours of snow, clear the board. It was discounted by some." I guess he checks in on this board or contacted Taunton to know about the 6 hour clearing method you used but nice shoutout to Ray anyway. By his tone it sounded like he was buying the 31

Wow that seems very strange as there could be quite the difference in snow totals from Winthrop right on the coast to downtown Boston like yesterday. I thought I got more than 14.5in. I'm sure this has been discussed at nausium in here before regarding Winthrop basically being used for bostons official records

Did anyone notice that the Logan reports and Winthrop reports are lock-step the same, even reporting times? Is it always like that? I know they're right next to each other but it seems strange that there wouldn't be at least a tenth of inch of difference. Is it the same person reporting for both locations but only actually possibly reporting from one and sending in two different reports?

This was taken in a park in Eastie right next to the airport on the west side. Didn't measure. We'll see what Logan reports at 1am. What do you guys think?

Does anybody know how to attach pictures on here taken from an iPhone 6? I tried to attach one and it keeps saying that it's too big

At least you're in it. It hasn't moved anymore east from the back Bay Area and probably won't while we smoke exhaust

The leading edge of the megaband hasn't moved its eastward progression for the past 30 min. Think we're gonna be shutout from it?

I really hope you're right. You are 95% of the time. I've just had 0 luck my whole life when it comes to banding

I don't know if it's gonna get to us in Eastie. Just in subsidence right now that will probably continue

I'm just east of Logan and we have at least 6-7in. Haven't been measuring, just eyeballing. Wouldn't be surprised to see a 10 spot at 1 pm IF this keeps up

Oh boy. You must be that 25th amendment guy judging by your silly political references. Thought you disappeared. Please for the love of god keep your political bs out of this thread for the day

Yeah nothing but rain here. Oh well, too warm I guess good night

Honestly, we're not going to know anything until 2-3 before the 4th. Last year leading up to it everyone was touting warm and sunny conditions all weekend. Turned out to be crappy, cloudy and rainy. The previous 2 years to that were in the 70's with Hurricane Arthur just offshore in 2014. It's all nice and good to be optimistic if you want hot and sunny weather but going by our luck with Memorial Day and this general unsettled pattern we're in I'm expecting some type of rain but we just won't know anything for weeks from now

Gusting to 163mph. Pretty impressive, if accurate.
