No way PVD did....they had a paltry 7.3 at 1pm.
-
It's the opposite of the 12/5 event....I think all of our lift down here has been lower level stuff since about 4-5am, but we've kept nice dendrites mostly. Helps when it's like -8C to -10C in the 850-925 layer with all that easterly flow supplying tons of salt nuclei.
-
Only time I've ever seen anything like that was Tahoe...was in a storm there where it dumped like 70-75 inches in 2.5 days, and the peak of it was probably 10" per hour type stuff. I guess December 23, 1997 was pretty close in ORH with 6-7" per hour.

We got an Ariens 2 years ago and the best part about it how easily it chews up heavy snow banks. I love the thing. The snow banks were easily 3+ feet in front of my driveway and it made fairly quick work of them today.
-
They also got 2+ feet in Dec last year....and 20+ in Jan 2011
-
Nice....similar to here for totals...I had ~13.5 about an hour ago but you have more QPF in the pack. Snow starting to pick up again in these weenie bands congealing over central MA.
-
What are you up to there?
-
Low level goodies with a cold 850-900mb layer....like -8C or -9C....plenty cold with that flow off ocean.
-
This stuff for the past couple hours rotating through has been fluffy currier and ives type snow.
-
You had the liquid equivalent. At least it is a man pack now. Might survive a grinch storm.
-
Yeah that is a nice band over ORH county now
-
ORH had less than my current place in Holliston. Winter hill is just now around 10". Have 13"+ in Holliston. Looks like radar is filling in though so maybe another inch or two out in areas that were in the sucker hole
-
Slowly gained another inch since 7:30 so over 13" now....we caught the sucker hole the last couple hours, but not all of it...still getting consistent light snow. Hoping for the steadier stuff to roll back in and pick up another 1-2". Would be cool to get to 15"....my personal expectation was 10-12 so we've exceeded that already.
-
It's been really good on the cold side of the CF here....really good flakes.
-
This made me think....I just threw out the 2015 example to Luke on when things ended up a bit SE in a big coastal....but I remember the RGEM was a red flag in that it showed like 3 or 4 runs in a row of destroying ORH with the pivot instead of a bit further NW like a lot of other guidance and usually the RGEM is zonked.
-
I've seen them SE...it happened in Jan 2015 (even when you discount the Euro in that one). But yeah, they do often seem to sneak further NW than consensus guidance.
-
Lol, you're gonna end up with 30+ after nearly throwing in the towel. That is a fricken' sweet band. Congrats.
-
A bit over a foot in Holliston when I measured 20 min ago
-
BOS getting crushed now
-
Destroyed
-
Dude went to bed and he's getting firehosed right now
-
You can tell this is lower level because the OKX and BOX radars are having trouble seeing all the snow more than about 50 miles out except when they are looking at the ML goodies well northwest...CT looks choppier on BOX than it does on OKX and vice-versa for E MA
-
Pretty cool radar over OKX right now showing that lower level stuff regenerating
-
Haven’t measured yet but eyeballing deck it has to already be a foot-plus
-
Rap hits you up good for another 6 or so after 12z (7am)....the NAM was more like 3-4”. Radar looks pretty damned good though. This stuff is just pouring in from the SSE
