Skidude Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 #25 on the NESIS scale. #24? Feb 5-6, 2010. http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/snow-and-ice/rsi/nesis I just got back from Southampton NY and I can tell your first hand....this was an historic storm not for snow fall totals, but rate. We went to bed at 11pm Friday night with under an inch on the ground and woke up Saturday morning at 6am to 30+ inches. Hard to tell snow totals because of the drifting snow and winds. Going with the Upton measurement at 30.5 Stopped at a local diner Friday evening and they saw our Maryland tags and asked us what we were doing in Southampton. My reply.....I drove six hours to get my "snow fix" ROFL. I think they believed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I don't know what's worse that or me digging myself down an off ramp all night during the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
