I'm still not buying it. Canton reported 21, I used to live there before Walpole and we were always similar as Canton, Stoughton, and Sharon all border each other. 9 inches higher is so much more. Qunicy at 30, Canton 21, Sharon 30...it doesn't make sense. The band skipped over Canton?

very likely..a couple of pages back we mention that

About 20 Steve...tough to measure, going off my firepit and my retaining wall, but seems to be in line with the rest of my area...great storm, glad you are well!

Amazing, accumulating again

I was surprised by that Sharon report. They are just on the other side of 95 from me, almost due south and while I did well, 20 or so, we were always dancing on the edge of the really good band. 30 seems high for them

Light, but nice flakes yet again

always go back to 78, but truly, a league of it's own...if you didnt experience it, then you look at the numbers, but the numbers don't do it justice....this was a great storm, and we have had many great storms since, but that one will always stand alone....Vinny, where in Cranston? I was on Community Drive, Edgewood, will never forget the front end payloaders finally clearing the streets...sorry, old guy will stop now...this too was a great storm...

heated grips are the best....my gloves have holes in them, too lazy to get new ones but with heated grips, no problem....what a great day

Picked back up here...impressed

Ray always own up, let's let it play out before taking shots

My daughter goes to school in Providence, she just texted me "Why is this storm a bust!" I told her to be patient

Just in from a great walk as dark turned to light...love walking in the snow when there is no other noise, other than the wind blowing...not gonna be possible to get an accurate measurement, it is already blowing around

Just listened to Kevin L on Fox 25 after Harv again did not back off...Kevin said he expects some locations may get 30+ inches, just not sure where....these Boston mets aren't dumb, they see something....hopefully they are right

I was surprised he didn't temper it a bit...he's the best, I hope he is right

2/6/78

That's a great suggestion, thanks. I never thought to do it that way. It's always the simple thing that makes a difference.

Funny you say that Ray. Being a long time lurker and enjoying reading you through they years, I though that same thing yesterday. My area always seems to do pretty well, if I could be a bit further to the west and north toward 495 that might be a bit better, but I usually don't have many complaints in this location.

East Bay and West Bay. I grew up in Cranston, West Bay, and we went to Narragansett for the summer, so the East Bay didn't exist....RI is unique, a great place to grow up

My condolences. God bless your dad and your family.

Stay here in NE Tip, the rest of them are toxic....

Completely unfair that Phin would get suspended for that interaction. I have no axe to grind against either man, I don't know either. But Forky comes in here for the sole intent to troll and has for years. I'm sure @PhineasC isn't for all, but I have enjoyed his posts from the north and I think he has added value to our New England group. This situation certainly seems to be the favored versus the unfavored.

I have to agree. Chris gets a mulligan on that, people died, that is the story, We dont need to cast blame, humans really aren't in control, despite the fact we think we are. Bless their families.

I remember this storm well. Driving down Park Ave in Cranston to go eat at Chelo's with mom and dad wondering what the hell is going on...don't mean to sound old, but those who are not of that generation can't even fathom the extent to which technology and info have changed the game. While living through it in the time, you really have no idea what's going on other than thinking this shouldn't be happening....no computer, no live tv updates, no spotter reports to tap into and get info...only thing to do was call the weather bureau recorded phone forecast in Warwick at Green Airport, I think that number was 401-738-1211? Was a great positive bust.

Snowing here

Steve, hope your friend is well. We are watching channel 5, Harvey called in. I swear he quoted what you wrote, Steve, verbatim. Even included location and pool house with concrete foundation.
