Any reports from ACK?

The end is coming soon. That last band is kicking through. Flakes are about the size of cottonballs again.

4.5 here.

Man I am going to bust high on the Cape if we do not get better lift right now.  I do not understand given the best banding is over my area, but yet we are in light snow.

I'll take anything we can get.

almost 4 inches

SE MA still getting crushed but the end is now starting to show up. We’re still getting moderate to heavy here too but not like earlier.

Slide on a little further E, please.

Just now, USCAPEWEATHERAF said:

How much snow do you have?  Is it snowing hard?

Going out to measure at 5 PM. It's snowing to beat the band.

What was the best February since records began?

I know what you are talking about.  Haven't been that way since the pandemic struck!

You're not missing much.

They are plowing 28 here in Harwich.  31F temp right now, N to NE wind at times.

The part of 28 I live on has a nice curve with a hill (people are driving waaay too fast). The Breakfast Room looks dead. Can barely see Cuffy's out the back window.

Certainly is, its a mega band 

How's your wind? It's favoring the NNE here. 28 has been plowed, but it's an uphill battle.

I got 3.2" as of 414pm this afternoon in Harwich, MA.  Temp has dropped to 31F as NE winds take over and switch to N at times.  Our surface low is below 994mb just southeast of the benchmark.  Pressure falls at the buoy near the benchmark has dropped almost 4mb in the last hour.

Nice band coming our way.

I'm salivating at that band..

2.7 ish. Wet snow and it's compacting. Still coming down hard. Wind is N.

Shaping up to be better than the OES Fest we had back on the 29th. Wind has kicked up here a little bit.

The sky is getting dark here. Still pouring down snow.

6.1 inches for this storm.

1/29/21 OES Fest: 1 inch

1/26-27/21: 4 inches

12/16-17/21: 3.5 inches

14.6 Inches this season

We're at 2 inches now. I'm going to hold off on sending that up to Norton. Opting to send the 4 PM.

Oh ok..thanks for explaining.  I remember 93-94 very well.  Was a record breaker here. Until two years later....

Favorite event from that winter was the 12/29-12/30/1993 event.

Going out to take a measurement at 3 PM

1 inch.

Plow went by.

Almost a half inch here. Flake size is still half-dollar to cottonball.
