greg ralls Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Definitely my favorite snowstorm of last winter. Pretty much 24" IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dec. 19 storm was good and not great here, so luckily I got the Feb storms. The only time I remember thundersnow was this past storm, but that Feb storm was better in everything else - duration, amounts, wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phlwx Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 The Dec. 19 storm was good and not great here, so luckily I got the Feb storms. The only time I remember thundersnow was this past storm, but that Feb storm was better in everything else - duration, amounts, wind. 12/19 was a bit of a screwjob for our backyards...we got snowholed on the front end. This was a very good storm -- not as good as 2/9-10 in terms of #'s (I got 17 on 2/5, 22.5 in 2/9) but this was the first storm of an epic three storm run for us in February (we got fringed with snowicane at month's end) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Road Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 the snow hit a wall over philly fri night, and then the meso band set up to my southeast sat morning. 14.2" IMBY. 28.5" at the airport. i mean it could be worse (NYC) but still quite a screwjob, with many mets calling 20-30" that night. I remember Chester County having 7" before I had my first flakes, and 12" before I had 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMolineuxLM1 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 the snow hit a wall over philly fri night, and then the meso band set up to my southeast sat morning. 14.2" IMBY. 28.5" at the airport. i mean it could be worse (NYC) but still quite a screwjob, with many mets calling 20-30" that night. I remember Chester County having 7" before I had my first flakes, and 12" before I had 2". What an amazing storm that was, the first of 3 major and i mean major storms that month. The most amazing month of snow of my whole entire lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 People in northern zones wants to forget about this lol. Congrats to everyone who got hit hard by this a year ago. At least 4 days later we got to jump in on the fun. And then 2 1/2 weeks later came our snowmageddon in the form of the retrobomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daxx Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 The best week of winter weather ever for me. Doubt I will ever see anything like that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Feb 5 26.5" Feb 10 - 15 " Agree with poster above that this was the best week of winter weather in my lifetime. Feb 5 was biggest snowstorm beating Jan 1996 by a couple of inches. We had multiple bands of heavy snow - 21" in 13 hours. After Feb 10 snow depth was over 30". That storm ended with high winds and extensive drifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris L Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 The best week of winter weather ever for me. Doubt I will ever see anything like that again. Even in York? Wow.. because York got a wicked snow week from January 7-12th, 1996.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daxx Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Even in York? Wow.. because York got a wicked snow week from January 7-12th, 1996.... The 96 blizzard was a better storm, but the week as a whole was not as good as the first ten days of February 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

February 6th:19.0 inches (10.0 inches remaining on the ground going into February 10th) February 10th:22.0 inches Total snowpack: 32 inches on the morning of February 11th Hmmm...considering how close we live, I am surprised you beat me by 3+ inches on both the Feb 5-6 storm and Feb 9-10 storm of last year (I recorded 15.5" on Feb 5-6, 19" on Feb 9-10). I did enjoy both storms (but Feb 9-10 was better IMBY). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did enjoy both storms (but Feb 9-10 was better IMBY). It is interesting to note what a difference a few miles make. We had 23.4" here in King of Prussia for the 2/5-6 storm, but only 17.7" from the 2/9-10 storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwilson Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 In Hatboro we got about 12.8" from this, if I remember correctly, while the PHL airport recorded almost 30" I think. Ridiculous gradient. The storm a few days later was better IMBY, dropping 7" before the weird lull in the morning and then another 16" after, total of 23.1", although I don't know if you would consider that one or two storms.
