DomNH Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I went to bed too. Got to see heavy snow this morning and it is still ccoming down good right now. I saw one report of already having 24". If I measured every 6 hours with a snowboard I'd probably be very close. Eclipsed Jan. 2011 here. Forget what we got in 2005 but I think this is either close or just a bit more.

dryslot Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Clearly model guidance focused too much on the surface low pressure and tied the upper levels to that. It was very evident from satellite and radar that upper levels were farther west than modeled. It was pretty clear on WV last night as it was swinging up into the GOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin1927 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 What's Boston's total? Was 21.8 an hour ago. Been stuck in a sucker hole so probably not much higher now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoons56 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Haven't got a chance to get outside yet, but the view out the window reminds me of December '92 here in Worcester...and it's still pouring snow! Last ORH measurement was 27.5" as of 5:57am. Anyone heard an updated total? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Got the Jeep warming up. Going for a little ride soon. Keep in mind there is almost no gas in this region right now. You asked...maybe 10-12" here. Lots of tree damage. Are we allowed back on the roads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 29.3". Absolutely epic storm and I was no where near the jackpot. And we'll hit 30" easily. ORH only inches away from biggest all time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslot Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah 100% agree. The 7h low couldn't have been too far from me last night. This really broke your way in the last 12-18 hours Pretty much tracked underneath you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GramaxRefugee Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Chills..we are shutdown Town Manager Declares Civil Preparedness Emergency in Tolland tolland.patch.com Town Manager Steven Werbner asks residents not to travel and to avoid shoveling snow into the roads. From my point of view.........Mr Werbner lost much respect when he referred to the emergency as "winter storm Nemo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connecticut Appleman Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Almost impossible to measure accurately here in Ellington flat lands, best estimate by measuring on the patio 34 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 My wife works at Yale-New Haven hospital. She slept there last night...but the majority of day shifters not able to get in this morning...so much of the night shift crew is still on. Rt-34 is apparently closed. I was able to force my way out the front door to get my final measurements. 27.5"...current snow depth around 21". Unbelievable to think had we not had that convective graupel/hail that Ryan talked about for a few hours last night we easily would've eclipsed 30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Pretty much tracked underneath you Too close but good for you! Oceanwx hit it on the head. Roger smith posted that satellite in the middle or the night: the surface low was near the BM. But the mid levels were further west and that's where the gfs failed. Nam wasn't terribly better it just overforecasts qpf so much all the time people think it nailed it. Euro was hands down the best. Not perfect but as close as you'll get. Only thing it struggled with at 24-48 hours was the stall point. Great otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Plows haven't been around here since 10pm last night...so about 10" of snow on the roads. Snow banks at the end of the driveway at least 3'...probably will be 4' by the time the plows get through. Not sure when I'll be able to get out of the driveway. Neighbor across the street recently bought a plow...wondering if its gonna be too much to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan11295 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 There is that Band from MHT-HFD which is continuing to give ORH decent snows, so they have a shot. That area should hit 30" multiple 27-28" reports in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonhowl Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 About 30" OTG. Obviously, and inexact science.

Probably worse out towards sandwich and east. This area didnt really even flood in 78.My relatives left hull overnight. Not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
