  1. Perhaps something like this? This was in the middle of a nasty blizzard. G108 mph MQE and paste snow massive power outages.
  2. CoastalWx going retro back home for the classic experience! Where's your wind? KGHG currently VRB03KT!
  3. Oh, here 's something wild...pre-storm and now w/ S+ BOS, wind has been NW the entire time. How often do you see *that*??? Usually, it NE or E and howling well before the S starts.
  4. BOS at 9 F when the snow first starts for a MONSTA snowstorm is an exceptionally cold temp for this location. And -30 F in NNE the day of the start as well. Usually, that means "cold 'n dry, kiss'em goodbye!" w/ DC getting buried instead. This was the case for PD1 in 1979.
  5. CoastalWx knows its PT time when BOS starts S- when it's 9 F. And it immediately went down to 1.5 SM. Let the weenie of all weenie storms begin!
  6. The ICON is the "icon???!!!" I made a 'PHUNIE!' The backlash special is going to be pure arctic fluff looking at the NAM 925, 850, and 700 temps. Ideal DGZ zone probably right over Weymouth! One time CoastalWx will like diamond dust w/ MOON DIMLY VSBL It just snows until there are no clouds left.
  7. 25" in BOS on 00z HRRR and it is still not done at 48 hr. Shot at all-time record snowstorm is looming!
  8. How about this one? Dec 11-13, 1992. This was the one the started it all. The first blockbuster coming out of the snow drought since the mid 80s. I had 18" in Woburn. Biggest single storm snowfall I had I think since the April 1982 blizzard. What made this odd, is that I had a ton of rain Dec 11, and then a ton of snow on Dec 12. It is very rare to have so much rain and then so much snow in two parts in one storm over 48 hr in the NEUS! And the R/S line on Dec 11. One of the sharpest and most stationary for such a long time I have ever seen. In the evening, Nashua already had 6" and in Billerica nothing. Drove N on Rt 3 just after midnight, and not even a mi N of 495, hit a snow covered road like a wall. Got to Drum Hill in Chelmsford, and it was fluff and hardly any wind. Then the R/S line collapses S a few hours later and the rest is history! CoastalWx was totally ripped off in Brockton. Slushy mess while 5 mi NW of him over a foot!
  9. Greatest snowstorm totals on record I think for SE MA and Cape Cod. A CoastalWx favorite. IIRC Bridgewater MA said they had 41" but it was thrown out. Don't bring that total up to CoastalWx, he gets fired up every time! LOL.
  10. I don't know. CoastalWx may not be content w/ what the 12z RRFS is showing. "Only" 18" in Weymouth, but 40/70 Benchmark in Methuen gets 25". "I WANT THE MOST!" I can hear him saying! His precious DGZ get contaminated by the 700 warm nose and hence SNPL. -1 to -3 C at 700 not going to cut it near the peak of storm!
  11. So two biggies that season? The other on in Dec. Total snowfall you had?
  12. As CoastalWx might say. "WE WEENIE!" It has Blizzard of '93 vibes! 959 mb near Cape Cod? FYI, the lowest non-tropical low pressure in New England is 955 mb at BID, set on March 7, 1932.
