I thought NAM won here, big time. Sure it had it's usual apesh*t run yesterday, but overall, it was actually the closest verifying than the others. Euro was absolutely lagging. RGEM / CMC were atrocious. Obviously we're not gonna crown NAM as the new king... this speaks more to the nature of this system than model dependability.

Roger Smith Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Recent SLP 960 mb at buoy 44011 with center estimated 50 nw of them. Also 31' waves. This one does not record winds. To the north Mount Desert Rock has 51 knots north gusting to 55 knots. From recent satellite obs, northeast trend with slight NNE jog and probable track now into Bay of Fundy with landfall near St John NB tonight. https://weather.gc.ca/data/satellite/goes_ecan_1070_100.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so, this happened last March too with amounts so much higher so close by I only observed one hour of really heavy snow in the late morning and another twenty minutes or so of it about 2 hours ago when that last area pivoted through in between it was really showery, I expected central/western ct to be a few to several inches higher as well as nyc/li/ ema etc there are lots of trees and the houses are fairly close together and the wind was insane so measuring very challenging but my friend was able to drive his saab right into the unshoveled driveway and the car is low and if there was a foot plus that never would have happened when i was measuring i was coming up with 7-8 new and then we did get a good burst after so i could see up to 9 legit ...if you are right over the ct/ma border you are 2.5 mi from me as the crow flies it did snow a long time today (5am-5pm) and i do not believe in 6 hour measurements etc unless a really long duration event so if there was an inch or so lost to compaction and wind fracturing maybe it was as much as 10?? i will tentatively keep it at 9 for now and from all the last minute computer forecast i saw it seems very meh to me, should have been a foot easy(hrrr,gfs,nam,etc etc plus all the expert analysis)......first thing this morning i would not have expected more than 6-10 but then everything just looked so incredible right into the first few hours of the event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxBlue Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Calling it at 14" unless we get more, with possible range between 13.5-15" due to drifting issues. January 2016 storm also had drifting issues and range of 13.5-15" so it's a tie between these two storms as my greatest single-storm snow total. However, today's the deepest snow I ever seen at 18-20" range in level areas with drifts as high as 3 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
