Shame all the good stuff with this will be happening over night, if we pop another Nemo or 2011 out of this id love to see that during the day esp with any lightning and 4"+/hr rates, chances are always low for that but still possible given how insanely dynamic this thing.

It's ok we got our near-whiteout daytime 1-3"/hr storm already for the season

How many of you SNE (us) weenies woke up with a mega tent or ladies all wet just thinking about what is to come? All timer? A contender? Lay it out here.  No snow maps just predicted rank in your life. Top 5? 10? Or Meh been there done that.  Tough for me as I have so many but think top 5. My analogy is Jan 27 2011

With 50-70 mph winds regionwide no one is ever going to be able to measure correctly . Storms like this will have some wild numbers . No one will ever feel like they got the correct measurements 

Nah, it's still possible to get a pretty accurate measurement with these. Just measure in multiple places around the house if you can. Make sure your about 20 feet away from the house though while taking these measurements so the roof snow doesn't add in with the snowfall. Also try to get a nice round number of how much snow you have already have on the ground so you can subtracted this from the snowfall, it will add to the settled total snow depth. It can be done.

In these situations I toss and turn all night and have feverish Lucy pull dreams.

I don’t know why he chooses to live with lobster traps on a lonely peninsula in Maine.

I think it sounds awesome and I hope he gets to experience a big snow event while he's there. I bet it is so beautiful in the fall when the tourists are gone but the weather is still pretty good.

Difficult to say prior to the storm but for me Feb. 78 is at the top of my list

Definitely be a top 10, but top 5 would have to really be a direct hit. Especially if that mega band sets up perfectly.

I think it will be wild from 6-8am still first light around here is like 6-6:20am with full daylight by 6:45am.

Top 5 …. Of this decade here

Seriously, this isn’t my storm.   Won’t have the best winds or best totals.  Still a very good storm IMBY.   
 

maybe top 10 all time

You'll be buried with the rest of 'em.

I continue to hope for tick north of the qpf.  I thing my GYX warning for 6-10 is gratuitious.

Maybe you’ve got protected areas but for many people it will be impossible . You’re gonna see reports of 40 + which won’t be right most likely

I meant more for snow events. He’s up there for a dusting but won’t go to a place getting buried.

Over 20" is top 3 of my lifetime, very possible.. I always fall between 15-20" in these (3 20" storms and several 15-18") Only 96 and 2013 were more 30" and 40" respectively both guesstimates based on nearby reports..

Why am I still skeptical? Of winds… no. Of prolific snow…. Yeah a little. It’s just odd that thing wraps up of ACY… much prefer if that Y was a K.

I have no idea what to think up here. We’re going to miss it on the meat of CCB for sure, but does look like we’re in a decent spot to be deformed. Could be 20’’ if we rot under a fronto band, could be 9’’ if we smoke exhaust all day. Think I’d tell people 12-18’’ but it’s very uncertain.

Jealous of SEMA either way. That wind and fire hose is going to be special.

Not sure I have the so-called protective areas, but I do get your point. I do feel it can still be done though with fairly decent accuracy. But winds and drifting do indeed make storms like this on the tougher side to measure things normally.

It’s gonna be top 5 for me, could be #1. NEMO is the only one I can remember that compares to what’s on the table.

We had 30” in March 2023 (sorry Scooter…ptsd)   23” Jan 2026.   
 

I won’t complain unless we get under 12” here.  Expecting 16-20

I can't really go out and measure so I'm sticking a yard stick in the center of my yard and will subtract the current depth. It won't be perfect but I'll see what ESandwich Coop reports. I'm usually pretty close with their reports, though this one will be trickier

That's fine, there's nothing wrong about that. It will be pretty accurate.
