I wonder if absent any midlevel enhancement, they just get stuck in subsidence between the land convergence/slight upslope in interior SE MA and the upslope further west. 10 hours ago, CoastalWx said: That’s what I think. Even with Ne flow you see it. But I think that holds weight because you don’t see it in smaller events or WAA type deals where 850 winds are SE-S. Naggy Bay strikes again. It loves to kill severe weather as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 31 in Simsbury, and 34 in East Windsor where I was living at the time. I've heard others say the same. 34 in East Windsor? Every town surrounding it had reports of 22-25" including BDL. I didn't see anything like that looking through all the available data. that map includes every possible report i could find from cocorahs, COOP and the PNS which is what i go off of and i think is far more realistic and accurate than the NESIS map which has none of CT above 30" which is ridiculous.

I'll have to try to dig out my old notes wherever the hell they are lol. If I'm remembering correctly East Windsor had a hair more than Simsbury although maybe I'm of the information backwards. I know the Simsbury measurement is correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the formula but there is far lesser events that still scraped the big cities like new york that made that list. This ones gotta be the worst. NYC got zero snow from this. As well as most of CT and all of MA outside the berkshires. So this one is super overdone for tri-state/sne 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually the NESIS maps are good for looking at the general idea of the snow distribution despite being too conservative, but this map is completely wrong and way too aggressive with the snow in SNE and NJ/NYC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have the two towns transposed in my head. 29 in E.W. and 31 in Simsbury.. well, West Simsbury really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
