Unreal gradiant from here to Logan. I have some solid 8" in and around my hood. My neighbor alex should chime in to verify. Man, the hills here tend to skew the amounts bigtime. I was shocked when I measured just after midnight.

Time to go suffer the pain of shoveling the driveway. Ugh, don't get old.

Nice, Mitch. Some light stuff making it over the spine, but nothing exciting. Just enough to take comfort in knowing that flakes continue.

20.1/15

It looks like it may be starting to wind down per the radar loop, but still going pretty good ATM.

how much snow do you get per year from cold advection

It's hard to put an exact number on it since it varies, but of my 75 inch average, I'd say about 20-25 inches of it is from CAA and upslope.

Yes, it's nice, but I get shadowed in the easterly flow of storms and my totals will often be less than areas just to my east. I only had 6.5" in the Wednesday night - Thursday event since downslope warming actually warmed the midlevels just enough to get quite a bit of sleet contamination here while areas a little to my E (and even SE) stayed snow. In terms of synoptic snow, I actually think ORH is a bit better. As bad as last winter was, I actually had some decent upslope events and had 38.5" for the winter, sans October. Not all of this was upslope, but more than half of it was since last winter was dead synoptically.

Upslope is winding down here. Just -SN now. I'll go out to take final measurements in a little.
