Tropopause_Fold Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I am very close to that..When I can get outside to shovel in a bit I'll get some measurements around the yard..but considering my fences are buried and are 3 feet high it's close to that the difference though is you've been gradually building that so you've got a true solid torch-resistant snow pack. mine came in two back to back events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you have maybe 30"....no way its 36" ifr you measure truthfully everywhere...not just your BY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Scooter said an inch or 2 on the Euro I meant I could see an inch or two out of it. Verbatim it's not juicy, but again...it's a cold system. The fear is that it gets squashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Aren't some of those totals questionable from BDL?? Yes..no doubt about it..There were 2 snowfalls that were def. too high..but in the books it goes down as fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yeah it might not be that high..but I'm certain it's over 30 inches..there is no doubt about that. Make sure you measure in a sun exposed spot outside of your yard....its obviously ugly to do that, but thats where the actual snow depth truth comes in. Anyone like skiMRG or me can measure our back yards and say there is a 40" depth but its not truthful unless you go to spots where ther eis exposure...and then take the average....I guess its truthful in the sense that your actual house has 40" of snow but its kind f fake unless you play the game over the whole area. Like in my area...the sunny side of the street probably has a 19-21" depth and I have a 31" depth...but I don't go by my shady spot that has 3 feet. At any rate I guess its semantics, but I prefer people to do it the truthful way as to not skew obs so we are comparing apples to apples rather than comparing someones shady spot that never gets any sun to a poster who says 14" depth in total sun.

weatherMA Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 12.6" FINAL, 48.2" for January!!, 62.8" for the year, snow depth 28-34". Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Also i had 8 inches from the double norluns..How much did you have? I had about 4" but that was complete fluff...almost zero water content, so that wont make much of a difference between our areas if we're talking 3-4 inches.Also you have to give my area a little more credit for holding snow pack because you know it does. Like in the warmer event last week, you were 33F for hours while I was 30F and ZR. It might not seem like a huge deal, but it add up and starts to make up for those fluff bomb differences.

DeVries Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Aren't some of those totals questionable from BDL?? Their January totals are pretty legit. You can't really argue about a few inches out of 40-50. Every station has that degree of error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROOSTA Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Eyeballing 6-7" amazing that it fell in such duration. Always try to learn from these wacky storms. Had a good handle yesterday morning this time, Stuck to what thought would happen...BINGO. Lookie here surpassed last years total snowfall and long way to go A true snow lover would never say "no more" I say "bring on Saturday" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are about 5" too high in Jan from the double barrel norlun/inverted trough events, but it doesn't matter for the record I don't think. But they are about 5" too high...they were 6" too high in the Boxing day storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Im pretty sure if ORH gets their average from this date on...they will only be a few inches shy of 100", and I think we all know they will get more then their average from this date on....

I know they received a lot, but some of the totals were a little on the high side. It doesn't really take a way from the record, just pointing it out.

It doesn't really take a way from the record, just pointing it out. I agree with you but they really did over report by a good foot and even in this winter that is substantial. For Jan the half foot over reported is more negligable but when you add the boxing day to it, it has some teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't really take a way from the record, just pointing it out. They definitely have an overmeasurer over there this season. They are not coming in with any totals on the low side. My biggest beef is where they added almost 7" to their Boxing Day total which was not a measurement error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Windcredible! Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 About 12" overnight with round 2...about 16" since yesterday AM...and 20" since Tuesday AM. All in all a good week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Lot of wind...I'm not sure what fell around here. I'm guessing somewhere between 9 and 12" given reports in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
