Somewhere probably passes 3in on this. Already surpassed my expectations.

Just about 3" in the West End, what a lovely way to end the winter!

[blackngoldrules]

A nice way to pad the stats some more!

Second glance - either it was really ripping the last hour or I was low balling. Looks more like 3.5”-4”

Spotter a mile from me reported 3” at 7:30, so that tracks

(again, I’m away not just too lazy to measure :-))

[blackngoldrules]

Still ripping.

[meatwad]

Back edge coming soon, with some snowshowers behind it.

[Digger]

3" on that railing now. But still bare spots on the concrete sidewalk.

This is an example of mesos doing a really nice job with this and those making forecasts just not believing it.

And I get it - certainly some bust potential in mid March with warm ground. And the impact on the roads, etc might not be too much.

But It really wasn’t a “surprise”. Lots of data for it, and we have done well with Anafronts before

4 inches here.

Same. Just measured 4 on the deck. Its highly variable based on the surface.

I wasn't expecting more than 2 to be honest. I definitely underestimated the rates ability to overcome the warm ground.

Glad it hit late day. We still got to have some daylight snow but the sun wasn't a factor.

We might hit warning criteria at this rate. 

[Gordo74]

Almost at 5” here since 6pm.
