Glad you scored man. You guys have been screwed many times while others got hammered. It all equaks out 

I honestly don't look at as getting screwed. I just think of how many things have to go right for *anyone* to get snow, and when I get some it makes me very happy.

I grew up in Phoenix AZ so for me all snow is special. I'll take a 6-10er any day over the one-long-sunny-day I grew up in.

Yeah it was all about the midlevels. Same theme (different setup though) in march 2013 with the surface low way east but the midlevels were throwing forcing wayyy west into SNE. 

He has some great graphics on his Twitter. I follow him and check in there often because he really is a true wx weenie. Always worth a look, especially for the long range.

How did CrankyWx do?

Well he was right about the center of the system being so far east, but he never caught on that it didn't matter.

For the most part yes. I’m at 11.8” so far . Just got tickled by the outer edge of it 

I stole your snow. And I'm not sorry lol.

I am usually content with my parade of 6-10ers. But this was a special day.

All my measurements averaged out to an even 20", and I came in to look at the NWS snow totals page. 20" for Woonsocket.

So 20" it is. Still snowing somewhat, but bfd. I can't remember ever getting 20" in such a short duration. The bulk of it came between sunup and sundown.

This helps make up for March 2013 in RI:

 

 

It makes up for so many storms. You are amazing with your dates, btw. Savant for certain.

Next time you need to find a way to get Cory home.  He's flown home in the past for some duds and paid a lot of money to do so.  But he let this one get away.

If he was here he'd be whining he didn't get 30". Seriously. 

Sorry for stealing people's snow, but I have had mine stolen oh so many times.

Average measurement just now was 16.5, and it is just dumping snow imby.

Winds picking up again, vis: endzone to the 50 yard line.

Genuinely sorry for the snow theft victims.

Lightening up here as that band heads west. Gusts are picking up and temp down to 27.3.

Super light fluffy snow on top of an inch or two of slush. All my measurements were either 10, 11, or 12", so let's say 11" in N RI so far. 

And the power is holding on after being restored at 10 am. It's all fun and games until the power goes out.

It's been like 200 yard visibilty for about 2 hours now. Just blasting. Impossible to say how much on the ground, but Brett just said about 7"....it's all of that. If it stays like this for another hour we'll be close to 10 here

200 yards? Are you sure it's that much? 2 football fields? My vis is like from the endzone to the 30yd line. 100 feet and then a wall of white.

N RI is getting crushed...and adjacent SE MA like near our butterfish poster....gotta be near 10" in those spots now. Our poster up in Mendon was at 9" in extreme SE ORH county where they've been persistently under good banding.

Yeah Mendon is not far from me and I think my estimate of 5-6 was way too low. I am going out to measure now. My vis is literally 100 feet.

My backyard

Looking good, James! you're off to a good start. Hows the wind down there?

Power out in N RI for about an hour and a half, but it just came back on. 

31.1, winds cranking, +S, and maybe 5-6" down (eyeballing), Vis maybe 300ft. Pines straining under the weight.

Just. So. Much. snow in this band.
