Logan11 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 No it depends upon the fields where a lot blew versus the woods.... So to be honest I may have 7-8 inches in the woods, but some of the fields not as much. Does this depend on what elevation of the property you're on?

weathafella Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 lol The storm is an underperformer to OK performer for the northern half of CT. No great rates... a gradual 3" or so. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. No other way around that. S CT is just getting pounded. Many reasons but I daresay one of them is the propensity of recent systems to come in colder and in this case, making better dynamics more difficult.

CT Rain Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 not sure what 24 years experience would mean haven't seen any obs directly under death band again what does .60-.65 qpf (already fallen) equal for totals with the ratio's under that band? here in wakefield mass it is starting to snow better again and i'm interested to see wether we get a nice band from ORH over to the northshore I'm getting tons of obs in through email, twitter, facebook, etc. Just because it's not on the board doesn't mean they don't exist. The highest reliable obs I've seen are in the 8-9" range. The report is from a suspect poster in the first place and it has consisentely been higher than nearby reports.

NECT Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Eyeball says maybe 2". I'll measure later when the hours of light snow end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, there is plenty reason to doubt their total if its always the high outlier....band or no band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North haven reported the highest by far - and like Ryan said has a history of inflated totals. We'll see what the final numbers show. My sister was under the deathband in derby and has just under 9" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Tell me about it, here in Kingston by Plympton line and it has just been a light steady snow since about 8. We've got about 4" I just measured. It's snowing to beat the band. S+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N. OF PIKE Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 ok ok if it was from a poster who put a bogus report in from a last storm then i apologize and i still think 10 has fallen somewhere in ct. best of that band was just south by 2 miles or so from derby but either way good snowfall i apologize to ryan for saying it's silly to call a total like that b.s bc i completely missed that it was from a person with a history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confident of 4-5 for many of us in eastern MA who have been away from that nice band south. Nice to see Phil come in with 6+. He's been a good sport all winter...perhaps the only one amongst us who hasn't melted down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
