wxmanmitch Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Surprising because we were 5" up here as was Albany but I think you were on the fringe of that sucker hole that also effected Hartford, Springfield etc. Snow never really let up here much from 11am onward. We didn't get into the heavier snow until about 1-1:30. We had this light "snizzle" from about 11 AM, so we were sucker holed for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 HRRR is now finally starting to show some QPF later tonight, 2z RAP has a tenth or so on parts of the Cape. If the band can setup...there could be a dusting to a few inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Well this has been a nightmare of a shift. Crickets all night long as we wrestle with the decision to go with upgrades to warnings for the coast. Ultimately decided that it wouldn't snow long enough to bring the majority of the zones in question over 6". Now that it's nearly over the phones light up with 6-8" amounts everywhere.

DavisStraight Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 4.8" new today as of 9:30PM EST Total OTG: 10" I would have thought Oxford would do better, I ended up with 7" and it looked like just east of me was getting hammered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patfan1987 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 A little over 7 here. Moon is out with flakes still trickling down. Snow blowing is done and what a great start to winter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Looking at what happened downstream here in e MA, why forgo the warning?? We had no reports to confirm what had fallen, and despite that band moving north we didn't think it would last long enough to reach warning criteria. What we didn't know was how much had already fallen near the coast. Local news basically ignored what was going on for the Voice or whatever, and our own mets didn't even bother calling in as PWM ticked towards 6". Needless to say I'm less than thrilled. I should've just gone with my gut and pulled the trigger. But we really get dinged when we upgrade and it busts. Weird night all around. Usually winter storm the phones ring off the hook.

Easily 8" here, most of which fell within about 5-6 hours. This was definitely a tough one. I'm not complaining! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Eric Jayhawk was all over this. That's an impressive band. His reporting was great, actually gave us a sense of the rate and how much he should top out at. We can handle a few 6" reports, it's the 7, 8, 9s that hurt.

NorEastermass128 Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 7.5" final. Depth ranges from 15-16" across the yard. Almost at my seasonal total from 2011-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Just finished shoveling. What a great week of winter. After deep snow 12/30/93, we had a hellacious torch which wiped the slate clean in the first days of 1994. The rest is history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
