6.0” here at 11:15. Around 1”/hour. Although it is getting heavier

Have you deleted old pics?

4.5”as of 9:30 in Hubbardston MA Decent rates. Hoping for 12-14”. Winds are good. Higher ratio than last week but still sticking to the sides of oaks

It was weird. Short burst. Not on radar that I saw. 0.25”

Storm cancel. It stopped

Ripping here. Already a new coating. Hubbardston, MA. 9:20PM

Last winter had so many melts. Could not retain at all...Presidents week was the worst

I only got like 3" here from that. Meh

Nada

How's it looking for tonight?

Nothing visible here, but the sky is brightening so that might be ruining it

Saw some in Lowell MA of all places around 1989 or so Cloudy to my north attm.

Stupid DST making it lighter longer (Jk) Would love to view them. I have only seen them once

At what level does it affect communications?

Ryan, in the first video you had a swath of 10-15" Did you want to go higher? Are there forces that keep it in check?

CL&p saved him some great stuff

Right, but my school missed the 2 weeks, the vacation, then more...probably at least another weekAnyway, a dear friend of mine (who passed away in 2010), taught in Harvard Public Schools during Feb 1969. They missed over 3 weeks (including the vacation) that year

Actually longer out of school for me... over 3 weeks! From The Foxboro Reporter: "It would be three full weeks before the students would return to school. It took two weeks to clear the school grounds and clear snow from the buildings. But it was further decided to leave the April vacation in place as planned. State law mandates 180 days or 900 hours of school. Foxboro had a longer school day than most towns, and only had to extend the school year by one day to satisfy state requirements. For students in the former Lewis School on Mechanic Street, it would be even longer before they got back to their regular classrooms, as the school roof collapsed under the weight of the storm. Repairs were delayed when it was realized that changes made during construction had dropped the roof below state safety standards, so students would be temporarily housed in the Igo School Administration Center, now Igo Elementary School, displacing several town and civic agencies that also shared the space."

I missed at least 2 weeks (probably more like 3) due to the Blizzard of 78 My school's roof caved in.

It's not the best book, but it gives some cool anectodal stuff. Very little met info. Some people we know are quoted

Awesome video Ryan. better than milking cows

Tip could write the prologue... ... of course that might be longer than the book itself

Will, did you ever get a copy of this?

At least in the metro-Boston area I disagree. AWD doesn't help if the roads are full of stuck semis, etc. But the weekend thing, maybe. Also, today the forecast might have kept more people at home Plows are not much different than they were back then.

Yeah, I was living in Lowell and it was certainly a fun storm.But to get 35"+ like they probably did here would be top 5 for sureI think Lowell had 18" or so
