  1. I only ended up with 7" but this was a 2X better storm than Jan 7th despite getting 11.1" that storm. Wind, cold, long duration, daytime, near blizzard conditions..its way more than just about the final number
  2. lol, well im just beginning to compile numbers but its going to take some time for PNS and CoCoRahs to update tomorrow morning. What was yours, 9" you said?
  3. Yeah, nothing we get i dont think will ever compare to that. So many factors put that in its own league, including the fact it was the 1970s and people were caught off guard.
  4. i couldnt agree more i was just out there for about an hour and a half and i think i have frost bite. Measuring is near impossible. The best reasonable estimate i have is 7" from measuring 6 to 8" in many spots that i considered to have "relatively low" drifting... I'm fine with whole numbers in events like this, not super accurate but its really impossible. These were some of the strongest winds i've seen in a nor'easter here in quite a long time. Sustained at 15-25 and gusts to 30-40 the whole day. I can't even imagine what it looked like on the outer cape and the islands. ACK was sustained in the 40s most of the day with gusts to 70 with SN/+SN. That's a real blizzard.
  5. Going to measure now, hard to say but should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 7-8
  6. Please @ me or send me your snowfall totals when this wraps up in your area. Making a totals map for this storm is going to be a long and arduous one.
  7. good. really thinking our 12-20 verifies pretty well out east with 6-12 across a good chunk of ct, NW corner looks like itll be in the 3-6 range.
  8. im really happy for you, seriously, you guys get porked 9/10 times even in great storms. how much?
  9. Something is seriously wrong when Groton is getting smoked.
  10. he was a winter weather enthusiast from SE MA Harwich that passed away when he was about 30 i think from covid last year.
  11. OKX Radar. wish it would get out of damn Clear Air Mode
  12. which would still be about 20" for them, that would be one of the greats for BDL if that happened there
  13. We snowing pretty good now. Moderate. 28F 0.8" at 12:30. Probably at 1" now.
  14. It's not like half of tolland is going to get 6-12" and the other half will get 12-20". It doesnt work like that either. It's there to show a transition between ranges. The line also cuts through north haven and a lot of other towns in the NE. The line has to be somewhere and wouldn't look right if it followed town outlines. I just think its more noticeable because we have all the towns on the map itself. Snowfall maps rarely work out to be 100% perfect for every specific town, its there to show the general idea, which i think is about the same as our first call with a more SW to NE tilt.
  15. Id like to change my units from inches to centimeters please.
  16. get me a good CT/MA/RI base map and ill do it lol. We started with Connecticut but are expanding areas to include Tri-state NJ/CT/NY based on client needs. I'd definitely like to add a southern new england focused map next.
  17. Final call. We kept our original forecast pretty much the same with amounts just tilted the axis of snowfall a bit to orient it more SW to NE. Tri-state area stayed very similar with the 12-20" range extending farther west across long island. CT: Tri-state: CT warnings:
  18. At 12Z it was the #1 analog and at 00Z it was the #3 analog on the NAM runs and based on what i've seen with this storm and that it's pretty similar at multiple levels. I hate to say it and i know some on here will nail me to the cross for that but its hard not to see it. Not saying it plays out exactly like that but something similar wouldn't surprise me at all. East CT does great, even better than expected and a sharp cut off somewhere in central CT with low end warning snowfall gradient.
