It will take a while for these ocean temps to warm up around these parts with these types of temperatures for the Summer. Unless you have the majority of temperatures this Summer = Hazey, Hot and Humid for the most part, the water temps will really lag until late July, more likely early August.
-
It may have ben an error where they meant to type "15.7" and not the "25.7" you see.
-
It's pretty damned crazy isn't it!
-
I know for sure he measures at the end, which is good for the most part but where the person is measuring in Winthrope needs to be way more representable for the Boston Metro Proper. As discussed many times on this board, Boston Common seems to be the most reasonable and representable place.

That's not a harbor island, that's a fishing boat!

I believe you. I think now that most who are in the "know" understand to let it settle if not measure it every 12-24 hours like many did before the 1995/1996 winter. Elevation and mesoscale features that you indicate here however can create these types of deviations. Not large deviations but somewhat noticeable as you have observed.
-
Definately a relatively sharp cutoff outside the main 12-16" band in and around the area.
-
That foot that was on the field (My uncle is airport manager there) probably is the truth at the waters edge before any settling. So yes, the 12" amount is probably the truth but will the official books call it? We'll see.
-
Like I said last night as the storm was coming, "This was a good one in the making!" Enjoy it guys, we sure needed this!
-
I know from the 7AM snow reports from Burlington, MA got 13.4", Reading 13.0" (Ryan). So I'm not sure if we can squeezed out another inch until the storm end but we'll see. It's absolutely awsome that the heart of our viewing area got nailed like this. This is what the winter should have been like starting December 3-4th instead of March 3-4th.

Not sure I totally agree with that statement. I've see many benchmark storms with a cold High pressure in place have a heavy snow swath track that extends from Worcester, east northeast to 128, Boston and the immediate North Shore down to where Scott is, Weymouth (Immediate South Shore). But in terms of the banding structure of the storm is a whole other story.

That does look a little more jucy. I wonder if there will be a 10-13" ribbon somewhere in there according to that model. If so, it would go from a general direction from NW CT through Worcester to just north of Boston to Bedford MA. Just to the south of Boston around Weymouth has a little ocean enhancement.
-
I believe that from you northwest will be 8-10" south of you, 6-8".

Perhaps a Coastal Storm on March 2nd for SNE????
Greg replied to USCAPEWEATHERAF's topic in New England
Nobody was going to see 6-8" out of this after seeing the midnight models and trends. This was a 3-6" (6") is the max on the estimate locally on the far South Shore. -

Been snowing at a light but decent clip since 6:45AM. Hope the Boston weather map is correct. Would be a nice little treat. Hopes for Monday continue. -

No Ray, we've talked about this. I went to the pumping stations in north Wilmington. The man showed me the book. 32" for storm, 37" on Ground. No 6 hour measurements back then. Hell, both Burlington, Ma and North Andover came in with 30". Again no 6 hour measurements back then. north
-
IF RAY measures 32" then '78 is in trouble here.
-
It was a 2 center storm not 1. The one that he talked about was nearly 400 miles out but the closer one was just outside the benchmark.
-
Oh, I have power my man, hope you do to. Not sure if it's quite 30" but 27-29" maybe the upper bounds. We'll see what the finals are but what a storm. I thought these totals would be around Plymouth, Brockton, Taunton. Not reversed.
-
Many people don't use a snowboard. They continue like me to do it the old fashioned wasy. They take several readings by sticking a sharp metal ruler into the ground or place without obstruction and report the averge.
-
I believe that! The Depth was large of course, but the pure storm total was less. Durham, NH is practically your neighbor. You can check what fell yourself. They will give you snowfall and depth on ground.
-
Weather records show that was snow depth (old and new snow Combined) not pure storm total.
-
Usually we yell at each other for being a little too low or high but guesss what I have 27" of snow on my deck as of now so we both can't be too wrong. Wow Ray! I never saw this coming!
