Damage In Tolland Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Can you beat 10-11 dude? You're over 70", right? If the storm next weekend hits and is a biggie..yeah we have a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin1927 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 That band is creeping into Boston. Let's go for 25" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick-02540 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Another pic from my Aunt just south of Hartford....she didn't "officially" measure, but says estimating (because of all the drifting) between 2.5 and 3 feet fell. That's a classic eolian snow foreset you have there. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Miser Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 This band is neverending..Just sitting overhead.dumping and pumping ..pumping and dumping Just shy of 33" so far. Still dumping here too. I will be surprised if I DON'T hit 3 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Unfortunately, a windy event, coupled with a lack of "official" measuring techniques, will lead to some wild variations within a few miles...not too mention there very well would be a few areas that had tight, localized sharp gradients. Yeah...I was telling wiz last night my area, like his, blows for measuring because pretty much everywhere is sheltered by my house or trees. But at the same time, the trees act as a decent shelter to the wind as well, so we get minimal drifting away from the house. I feel pretty confident in my 27.5" measurement this time around.

weatherMA Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Still ripping here. Just doesnt want to stop. Fine with me. Should hit 30" soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick-02540 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Oxford, CT 33" (6 measures) My mother and father are north of there in Woodbury. They have 40" w/ drifts to 8 feet. Buddy just north of that in Bethlehem has 12 foot drifts. He's on top of Hard Hill, notorious for these- open farmland at 1000 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Puny "run of the mill" storm here compared to SNE, but my final measurement was 9 inches. I am about 20 miles west of KALB as the crow flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Stepped out with my dog into knee deep on the sidewalk. Was out for 45 minutes...maybe an hour. Band started move in and now snowing nicely again. BOS still has a shot at #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summerthyme Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 We must be pushing 2 feet here with this band. Such an amazing sight out there right now. Never seen so much snow in my 20 year life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teebrdsfan Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Measuring in the sheltered spots is yielding a depth of an average 23''. Awesome. Yeah, just took awhile to get ramped up here but we got destroyed overnight in S NH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudsncontrails Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Agreed...didn't Conventry have 20" at 10pm last night? Yeah 22" when I last checked at 00:30 before the band came back through. It's still coming down too and where I measure is shielded from the wind too. We got 3 feet no sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisrotary12 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 how much? Haven't ventured out yet. Waiting for the snow rate to drop a bit so I can get a more accurate number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah, just took awhile to get ramped up here but we got destroyed overnight in S NH I was just watching WMUR and they had the radar from overnight and it looks we had a huge band rotate back over us, must've been nuts because I went to bed at midnight with like 8'' and we've picked up 15'' more since then.

weathafella Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 1) Feb 1969- 36" 2) April 1997- 30" 3) Feb 1978- 26" 4) Today- 25.5" as of 8am So you have to hit 30 for it to qualify as biggest of your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROOSTA Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Impossible even to open the doors. SE Mass looking at days without power. I'm not measuring. ~2 feet. The train track is aligned headed straight for the Northeast. Another bomb would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dcg Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Just "read" through posts starting at 11:30 last night. Truly amazing! What a storm - hope everyone stays safe and sound. Waiting for the Kittery, ME report(s) to see how bro-in-law and family fared. Looks like they are still getting pounded - the kids are probably outside having a blast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
