That youtube video was a joke...in more ways than one. 

I would have liked to have seen the constitution he carries in his car.  At least that would have been a consolation payoff.  But we know he doesn't actually have one.

Erika about slid off her chair after he dropped the GFS getting pulled in the 8th analogy.  "As someone said". Good one.

There is some deep shit on the S shore even after the settling and mild weather. This is Hanover. No drift. Not shady either.

Epic maybe have that dude come measure what 84 hrs later. I went from 38 to 23.5. There peak depth had to be 40+

New snow really compacted because I could see the old snow below it. Makes sense.

Those rates were large enough that there was a period where they were racking up high ratio snows. Compaction is real especially with big totals like that. I think it’s a little insulting to assume everyone in that 30”+ zone doesn’t know how to measure new snowfall…especially paid, trained observers at PVD. 

Oh thank you. I told him it is demeaning to those who faithfully and diligently assist our Government.

It's a Pocket One Genius, Given to me by our Senator at his DC office years ago.  Asshat.  Not a freaking Parchment Paper from the 18th Century.  You guys Absolutely Suck.  And for F's Sake WHAT was a Joke in the video?  That I couldn't find ONE Single Measurement over 18.5" even though I went to 24 spots over 12 towns Less than 15 hours after the storm ended?
