Ginx snewx Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Logan airport had 0.9" in the Easter night storm and then 6.4" in the April 9-10 storm. But just off the water the easter storm was probably several inches more. That's what I get for using official NWS storm summaries, fooking Govt, what a disastah However, Boston's Logan International Airport had 6 inches, pushing the seasonal total to 107.6 inches, beating the old record of 101.6 inches set just a few days earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4/10 storm was much more dynamic for cstl areas, but I had nowhere near what areas just 20-30 miles to my west had, in nrn RI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the heads up, will check from now on, not surprised about anything any more, you would think it was important to be accurate in an agency that has people who have to take the toughest math courses in the world, one word laziness.

We whiffed on a storm on Mar 29, 1996 too...I remember we were supposed to get 3-6" about 24-36 hours before the event but then it turned to garbage and got suppressed south of us. Places like Newburgh NY got 4" and highlands of NNJ. I was bummed after that one as I thought that was it for that winter. But then we got the last laugh in those double barrel April events.
