So first one of 0z..is a dud. But that model is junk too..so.

Well, well see where the 0z goes shortly.

The bigger question is…do you believe that?

Lol…thanks pal.

Enlighten us.

Encouraging.

Yes…the measuring I think was so difficult due to the ferocious blowing. But alot of the official measurements for 78 did seem low for a lot of CT. Being a teacher, I can say we had no school for a week also in Feb 13 too, so equal in that regard.

And that’s this whole point…it’s always different for everybody. It’s never gonna be the same. And the reason it wasn’t the same out east on Feb 13, was because the real death band set up over here, and down through LI. Had it set up over the east…it would have been a different feeling for the east folks. But it didn’t, so 78 still ranks above. But not for here because we got absolutely obliterated with that band in 13…it was just totally off the charts.

He was talking about New England. So that’s what I was referring to. Yes upstate NY(which is significantly west of SNE/NE) got significantly more snow than here, due to your westward location. So for your area out there, for sure 2 feet was widespread. But not in NE.

Agreed. Imo, living through 78 as a soon to be 10 yr old 5 weeks afterwards, 78 had longer lasting winds, and thus bigger drifts, and even longer lasting blizzard conditions. But Feb 13 had even more snow than 78 here, with legit 6”+/hr rates that were absolutely mind boggling to witness. Feb ‘13 finally lived up to the performance and ferocity of 1978 for me…and I pretty much treat/think of them as equals for my area. Until that point, nothing had lived up to 78 here. But Feb 13 finally did for me. Both incredible storms.

Ya you guys got the rain…ugh. Heavy Snow to heavy sleet here. From a meteorological standpoint it was quite the rare bird. But there have been many storms since that were much better snow producers for sure. So in that regard it was somewhat of a let down imo.

Yes, that’s what I’m referring to.

There was a clunker in between there(94-95) that sucked. But those other two were record breakers.

No seriously….it wasn’t as prolific as some think. The sleet killed it for a lot of us..too bad. About 16” here then pingers for hrs.

Feb 83 PD 1.

But it snowed all day Friday before the the real crazy shit started after dark that day…so it was a pretty long storm. Definitely one for the record books.

Oh I wasn’t meaning that, just that a model run or two last week had something big for this window.

Yes sir. We got about 12” here…but we struggled to that. And as you said we had poor growth, and just couldn’t break into the big banding. Very disappointing to say the least. Good riddens to that thing lol.

Was a monster but it turned to sleet here in the later afternoon which cut down what would have been a massive amount. Got about 14-16” here in that, then a ton of sleet.

And that’s exactly the point…as John said, it’s pretty much impossible. Feb13 gave me 33”. The two January monsters in 2011 gave me close to 2ft, and then 18-20” respectively. So that’s kind of how it works. Dec of 20 and Feb 1st of 21 were 15-18”too. February ‘06 was huge here, 20 plus. Don’t know what you got in that? But that was a great storm here and down into NYC.

Feb 13. January’11 had two.

Lol..the only ice will be in my drink.

That boned us here out west(and I’m not extremely west either)…nothing special here. East of the River more than doubled(even 2.5 times in some spots)our accumulation. Not a fan of that storm here.

My only point was that one of the big two(Euro or GFS) late last week had a beast for this time frame for the area. I’m wondering if this is the come back of that idea? Interesting.

Maybe this is the big boy after all? It as hinted at last week by one of the models.
