The rush to be first is obv in the TV world. Except the NWS had numbers out last night! TWC has had numbers out since Monday. At some point you have to make a call - and that's why I sort of broad brushed things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been getting messages in our inbox since Tuesday on this storm and we're at the point where we're 48 hours out - at some point you have to put up some numbers and hope you made the right call. We're 3-6" statewide right now but I wouldn't be surprised if we introduce a 4-8" zone tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happens a lot in CT, I have had to explain to coworkers who only hear what they want when they hear 2 to 8 across the state that it means Tolland gets 8 work gets 2 and rain.

People busted my chops with my 29.8 report, but I am so anal about my measuring, if I got 30 I would be busting out the Top shelf Patron , wait I did anyway. Shot hour!

CoastalWx Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Interesting question. The only one I can say probably with certainty for me is 4/1/97. The other big boys came close. Also, and I cannot prove this, but feel 50/50 I pushed 30 in the Feb 2015 long duration event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to look back through the obs thread to be certain, but I'd swear there were several reports from the Blue Hills/Milton area of 30" before it shut off. That was a special event...as was the blizzard...and the SWFE on roids...and mid-level magic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
