Seems very plausible, I'm at ~8 in Pepperell.

I just measured 10" on our front porch, but I am not counting that as it might be wind/roof aided.   But man this is nice stuff.  I don't think I hit my 18" call though.  

Alright then I think my 9'' is fine.

Looks like the sleet line is creeping close. Snow over by 3pm prob. 

Lets just get those yellows through metro BOS as snow/not heavy rain at least and then bring on the dry slot! Have not measured but probably in the neighborhood of 10" in Randolph. Not bad for March.

How much do you have in Lowell? I just measured 9'' in a fairly sheltered spot that has not been drifting. But that seems like it might be too high?

I'm on a hill but with huge mature trees and shi#'s blowing all over the place, so there' s no way I could get an accurate measurement, but 9 sounds about right. It's been ripping heavy the past few hours.

Huge model qpf fail

Looks like it for CT at least. I think we all fell for the crazy numbers a bit because every single model had them, even the models that usually don't go overboard. Nice job Paul on your forecast - I think you may have been right for a bit of the wrong reason, but you stuck to your guns and should be the only one to not bust in the state as a result. We won't go down in flames like some will, but I'm not happy with our forecast.

I was always suspicious of it...I'm glad I stuck to 10-16" for ORH and into 495 belt. Was tempting to go a good 6 inches higher with the modeled QPF, but it never sat well with me seeing those 1 inch amounts in like 3-5 hours. Still an impressive and very nice storm. I won't be complaining about double digits. But then again, probably a bit easier for me since I never actually bought into the 18"+ amounts.

My local RWIS is at 0.08mi which is a little under 500ft. Damn impressive. 

I think this is obviously going to race out of here before we can hit the big 18''+ totals but if we can bang out like 14-15'' in essentially 6 hours that's pretty impressive.

Warm conveyor belts. In and out. Good luck Noyes. We were low for the area too. Working out well.
