SR Airglow Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Is somebody going to hit 30 inches? Box radar is impressive I think it's totally possible. OKX radar trying to build the fringes of the band further west upstate, should be good news for here as it moves south. -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The nrn edge of the firehose has some of the heaviest snow, so that will pivot through. Looks like the NW edge is tickling SE a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I had 18.2" at that time but he was a couple inches ahead of me yesterday. My temp is 33 now so snow growth is limited. I better do another measurement! Back in 1997 when I had 28" of fluff, it took a week to melt it with similar temps and it was finally gone after a day in the low 70s. I think we'll still have something around by Sunday night. Wow you're that warm? 30.8 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don, with what has fallen so far with this storm, roughly what are the seasonal totals this winter for ORH and Boston? Thanks Don! So far: Boston: 50.2" (but that's only up to the 7 am report of 7.4") Worcester: 94.5" (that includes the 16.3" figure as of 7 am) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 it will be close.. band is strengthening hope it doesn't consolidate and miss us both to the east.. It's been close all morning, but I've been on the wrong side of close, steady SN- with occasional SN. really no new accumulation. -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highways1 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just saw the latest PNS showing 20" in Shrewsbury, seems pretty accurate here. Might make a run at 2', I thought we'd be lucky if we hit 10" but looks like I was wrong, definitely not complaining it's been a very tough forecast.

jm1220 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yes Don...hopefully ORH gets a shot at the record sometime later this month. It looks like perhaps there could be another opportunity or two. But even if there isn't, it has been a memorable 30 days here. Incredible crush job up there-this stretch for you guys is like our stretch down here from Boxing Day 2010-1/27/11. Just insane.

mostman Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The nrn edge of the firehose has some of the heaviest snow, so that will pivot through. Looks like the NW edge is tickling SE a bit. I know - I'm in it. The last 3 hours have been pretty amazing. It does look to be starting to collapse SE at this point though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I wonder what Subdude has near WaWa...did he get wiped off the planet from this storm? They must have over 20" there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HinghamBoss Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 20" totals now showing up in the latest BOX PNS Shrewsbury, south Weymouth, Canton, I would say we have a solid 18" here in Hingham. Absolutely ripping snow right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapturedNature Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Wow you're that warm? 30.8 here Well, I should qualify that and say it's an uncalibrated sensor. I do think it's close to 32 though. I measured another half inch since 11 so 18.7" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbieL241 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Must be some weird elevation cutoff going on. I'm only seeing maybe 4 or 5" here at UHart, but the latest PNS data says West Hartford has 14". When I'm done eating lunch I'm gonna take a drive a bit further West towards Avon to see if the elevation is really throwing it off that much.

TheSnowman Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just talked with PAUL KOCIN for 15 minutes. He did a Weenie Drive to Western, VA since DC Sucked haha. Said the Short wave that created the Fujiwawa deseves a new Ferrari basically for what it did. Even he could not understand this storm, and even HE, could not understand WHAT is going on in RI. I'm heading towards a foot even though the rest of the state is hanging themselves. Might be able to selvage this thing. He was in Very good spirits. Helped mine a lot. I have to drive to Boston for a Concert (Soloing with an orchestra, it's actually a big gig but the snowstorm is the only thing on my mind lol) in Lexington today - That'll be fun!

Whineminster Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I wonder what Subdude has near WaWa...did he get wiped off the planet from this storm? They must have over 20" there. I sure hope so, is it me or does it seem like the radar ban out that way is a bit lighter than other areas. It's been dumping here in Marlborough since I got here at 9:15, must have at least 15" now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subdude Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just got back from wawa. It was epic. They have a good 20" there with 3' in the woods. I was able to ski the woods off balance rock for the first time in years. Took some great pics. took the skis off and hiked up to the cabin to take a break. untracked from the cabin. As soon as I left and was putting on my skis a guy ripped through it. in the woods. buried my ski pole in about 4' of snow while in the woods. Pic of my picnic table. The left is what I cleared off prior to the storm the right is untouched all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrantR Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just wandered around getting some snow in my boots. Completely unofficially, for the northern edge of Sturbridge, about 14-15" inches at various points around the property pushing a tape measure through to asphalt surface. 7" since 5:30am when I snow-blew a portion of the driveway.
