  1. Mekster and I both got hammered with NoPoles in Canada so I think that’s how I got mine.
  2. If you want to compare real impact...just measure the snow water equivalent and go with that. 10” of 8:1 has more impact than 15” of 30:1. That gets rid of most of the method issues.
  3. At least you had a spotter report of 28.3” in Methuen which blends your total in more.
  4. The old school weenies that like to measure at the end of the event can come in here and tell us those couple of inches overnight never happened.
  5. The thing is you have weenies like us clearing huge amounts of fluff every 6hrs and then the general public sticking the yardstick into the driveway at random times. When the PNS is showing a handful of reports a bit over 20” for the high range in a populated county and then a report comes in of over 30” it definitely stands out. That Wilmington 22.5” cocorahs report is just as fishy with about 3.00” of liquid reported. They reported 21.4”/2.75” for 7a-7a....I don’t think so. The other Wilmington cocorahs only reported 17.8”/1.22” for 7a-7a so the obs are all over the place. But you’re going to have trouble with people actually believing it since even the highest cocorahs reports are 20-25”. It’s simply just differing methods and that’s the nature of the beast. You’ll just have to deal with the skepticism.
  6. Another 1.1”/0.06” after 5z. 14.4”/1.14” 28° with some lingering-SN
  7. 1.9”/0.8” from the latest core. Daily total is 13.3”/1.08” Still some -SN that’s slowly accumulating. 28.6°
  8. Wow. We have a member from Delaware? I’ve driven through there multiple times and have yet to see a DE plate. I thought maybe it was an uninhabited territory.
  9. Low-level almost under the beam snows out here now. The stuff accumulates decently despite 3/4SM vis.
  10. I had about 25” in Auburn from that. I always thought the 40” was a bit high. I think Dover and Durham were around 35” IIRC from the PNS.
  11. 8.4”/0.68” from my last core Storm total 11.4”/1.00” so far. Still 28° with -SN
  12. My parents are near 2ft too without clearing. My dad is saying 23” new depth. Just taken...
  13. I’ll start to feel better when I’m snowblowing at 9pm and the snow isn’t going over the top of it.
  14. I try to keep telling myself that I don’t care. You’ll probably melt out before me too despite having double the pack.
  15. Days and days and hours and hours tracking sfc lows and QPF when as usual it comes down to nailing the mid level forcing <24hrs before the event. Hopefully someday we can toss most of those snow maps out the window.
