Compaction for sure. Most of my yard is 17-18” depths now. I was measuring my snowboard every hour basically all night and I cleared the board at 11 pm so that’s why. You’re not supposed to clear it I think until 12 hours but I needed to because of the blowing. That could have inflated my total by an inch or two. Several other reports near by of 20+ though! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing storm for our area for sure. I was pissed that I passed out before midnight and missed the deform band. Too many edibles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairie Dog Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 1 hour ago, LVLion77 said: And furthermore, I think AccuWeather handled the storm much better than NWS. And don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen it go the other way plenty of times as well. NWS stubbornly held onto bad predictions in a huge swath of this region when we amateurs could see it was never going to verify. Earlier in the event, you could see where the banding was setting up. I believe it was the 11 PM update last night that NWS posted an additional 4 to 12 inches for the Lehigh Valley, which was just pure bullheaded stubbornness. Well the infamous INACCU Weather blew it big time for guys like Iceman and me We doubled their measly prediction On a side note, they actually went to court to block NOAA from having an app That's how cut throat they are, and their pay rate is a joke. Yes, AccuWeather, particularly through lobbying efforts by its former leadership, played a major role in preventing the National Weather Service (NWS/NOAA) from releasing its own official mobile app to avoid competing with private sector weather companies. AccuWeather argued that the government should not compete with private apps, hindering the NWS from providing direct, official apps for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhiEaglesfan712 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Seeing the snow reports from Providence, those Baltimore/DC numbers are not surprising at all. I think most of us knew from the beginning the storm was going to hit the Baltimore/DC area or Providence/Boston, but not both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Storm totals remind me of those events in 2009/10, only cut East to West instead of South to North. Experienced some rough gradients back then. Subsidence next to the primary convection is unforgiving. Also, I've noticed Mt. Holly tends to have an underlying tendency towards aggressive forecasting, and I say that as someone that doesn't live in the CWA full-time, anymore. I think that's just their forecasting philosophy or preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Monday, my sister wore her sneakers for the first time this season, and we went on a walk around the neighborhood. Now, we have a lot of snow to shovel. (We've been out at least twice now. Me three times.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me started on night vs day snow.. By far. I enjoyed the first storm quite a bit more than yesterday. This one is already kinda sloppy looking. Still cool to look at when it's happening but the lifespan is much shorter come late Feb heading into March... 36F/cloudy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
