Cory just smashed his accordion using his Kocin book as a baseball bat.

Man, that stuff pointing toward Maine SE of PWM looks impressive.
-
Yeah the smaller battery ones are good for the 6-10" blower powder snows. For a compound like that up there, I'd prob have a heavy duty one and then a little smaller one that can handle all the small to moderate powder events you get.

Nice man....the Randolph magic finally showing through.
-
Man snow...epic snow banks. 2nd pic is my oldest following my snow blower track
-
Had an additional 1.5 overnight for 17. New depth is more like 14.5-15 (total depth 18ish)....that paste at the end plus several tenths of very dense snizzle on top is definitely helping compact things. This pack is ridiculous now.
-
Last few hours were paste after blower powder in the first half.

Buried

This one was a bit unique in that it had a really good sig on the north side of the ML warm front. That firehose basically getting lifted over the top of the temp gradient...pretty good recipe for big time rates that can sustain for several hours rather than relying on putrid decaying mesobands.

Fatties have recommenced in this stuff after it went to really cruddy flakes for about 20-25 min

Nope...not in the NW and W suburbs/exurbs it didn’t. Definitely an old school 128 to 495 storm. Looks like about 15.5” in Holliston...though honestly it would prob be 3-4” more if the snow didn’t fall “in the wrong order”...it was absolute 20 to 1 blower powder for the first half of the event and then it went to slightly denser but still powdery snow...and finally it went to paste. That prob helped compact things down quite a bit despite the insane rates. Hopefully we limp home with a few more.

Looks like Methuen is getting hammered at the moment

I really thought you’d get like 6-8”. Like a Slightly better version of 2/13/14...but just a smidge too much marine influence i guess. Kind of sucks this one couldn’t be a few degrees colder so that there were fewer screw zones.

Just destroyed.

Keeps regenerating
-
This is friggin nuts.
-
Can’t believe you only have 6”. That’s some cruddy luck being barely south of the goods. I bet some place like Bellingham has at least 9-10”
-
This thing just blew up over metrowest and 495
-
Nope Holliston at the moment.
-
Hard to get good pics of intensity with a cell phone at night but this is the best I could do.
-
Temp gradient has become less pronounced as the event wears on, but it looks roughly like this
-
It is ridiculous right now.
-
Incoming too...heaviest stuff of the night is just coming in and should make it up by you in the next 30 min. This is probably 3-4” per hour stuff.
-
Visibility must be like 300 yards right now.
