JJBASHB Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Snow is drifting south of the heaviest radar returns up here. MHT with 0.25mi vis and gusting to 37mph. It must be incredible down in RI/SE Massachusetts. Someday I’ll get down there for one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolri_wx Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Totally astounded by the crush job here. Can’t even look outside to see what’s going on. It’s a movie-like. Probably a 50 year or 100 year storm for RI. Usually those 35-40 dbz bands don’t stick around for this long. Thankfully power is still on, though half the town is out. Officially changing my handle to 39/70 Benchmark after this one… 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Don in East Hartford has like 10 or 11. Meteorologist Janna Brown from Agawam reported 7.5". At 11" as of 9:15. Pretty significant gradient too. I'm at 11 and there's a report of 11 in Manchester in that 9am hour, while just to my north in South Windsor they have a report of 7.5 and just of that Enfield to SW corridor Ellington and Vernon are at double digits.

Snugharbor Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 If you are looking for some South County video, I took this about a half-hour ago, I'm in Wakefield RI just north of Snug Harbor. My apologies for the breathing but I basically got wind burn in the 2 minutes I was outside filming it lol. Temp has been dropping here so the snow has turned a tad lighter (thankfully) and the wind is a bit more NW. Gusts are still prevalent but seem to be reducing a little compared to 2 hours ago. What's hard to measure is the snow -- I am sure we have over 2 new feet but the drifts with this kind of wind make it really difficult to measure. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonPeon Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I'm trying to think, but I think this is the best storm of my life. Ive had more upstate, but not like this. Nowhere near as dramatic or as much moisture. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
