YET, is giving 24-36 INSIDE the smallest state in the Union which I’m in, where people are talking like it’s the Biggest and Baddest Storm since the Blizzard of 1978. And I STILL Missed it. I truly might not even get 20”. That, THAT is More Impressive than my 3 World Championships. If you don't end up at around 24" then it's only because you don't have a good spot to measure. Your location wasn't in the middle of the death band but you have several consecutive hours of 30 dbz stuff on radar, and some parts of the heavy band made it your way. I've got two personal reports of around 2 feet in Cumberland area from friends. Plus we have the reports from Attelboro, and I have a friend in Smithfield reporting two feet to the west of you. There was no prolific snow hole over your house. Even if we knock a few inches off due to drifting, there's a good chance that this number verifies. It's seriously time to relax now and enjoy what you got. We already have enough things giving RI a bad name, and your whining on this thread is insufferable. You don't know how many times I've had friends in the northern and western parts of the state with significantly more snow than my own backyard. There's 50,000 people with no power in the state, that may not get it back for a couple of days, and you're complaining you didn't get 40" on top of your fake fucking mountain. Seriously, get a hold of yourself, and at least melt with some world championship worthy dignity. 8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a 24 hour snow record? Nothing is stopping them. I believe it is a storm total record not just a 24 hour record. I'm just doubtful that it happens because they would have to get another foot of snow after 7am this morning. I suppose it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Fine. It’s an ok storm. There are No 15” Measurements, and they have 26-30 JUST south of me. That is MORE Willfully Miserable. This is the Biggest Storm in RI since 1978 and it’s Whatever here in far northern RI. Worse For Boston though so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 9 minutes ago, andyhb said: I have strong suspicion that they might as this point, they've been sitting under that band for at least a couple hours since the last observation plus it seems there is a bit of a westward expansion/extension right around PVD's latitude. Then you have all of the backside deformation/etc. to go as the storm continues lifting NE. I mean they reported 33 inches on the ground (+28 change) last hour. I don't see how they haven't recorded over 29" of snow for this event. The 1978 is "only" 28.6". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWolf Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 5 minutes ago, Snowcrazed71 said: So it was a nice storm. Thought I'd wake up to a bit more, but I think we'll end up about 12 to 13 here. That's about it but nothing to shake a stick at. I know there's a bunch of people out in Massachusetts and Rhode Island that have crushed it, and I know they have been due. Still seems like there's more winter on the table. Enjoy the snowfall Yup, about the same here too. Too bad we couldn’t get into the real heavy banding…cuz it would have made it epic. Ahh well…maybe next time/year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like record snow depth is 30" in 1961. Of course, the official measurement won't be until 7 am tomorrow, but you've got to imagine it won't compact enough to drop below 30" - especially since it's still snowing very hard and likely to climb even higher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
