tavwtby Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I have been through 78 and all the others, and last night with the deathband and 10 minutes of thundersnow( which I finally caught on film) and the totals are the most I have ever seen. Like all of you I have been a passionate about weather since a child and this is what it is all about folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicRat Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Our first selectman says all roads are passible...although my road hasn't been touched since 10pm...about 10" on it. Been watching my neighbor attempt to get his snowplow out of his driveway the past hour. Really hope he gets it going...was counting on him to clear the snow bank at the end of the driveway. Same here. Thanks, Willie! Do you have power? We lost it around 6:30 last night and are still without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 You may want to extend that 30-36" band NE based on the Staffordville report along with Spencer, MA (along the same line). Overall incredible totals for CT and SNE. One for the record books, that's for sure. Yeah I see the Staffordville total now. That will be the new state record.

coriolis Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Hey CT people - any total snowfall amounts for me? Trying to make a list. Did our collinsville poster post? He has great snowfall obs. Terryville, ct 27.5 inches (20 measurement average) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I suspect that BDL's low total is due to not having a good spot when measuring the snow. A couple of shots showed really windy conditions last night. I wouldn't be surprised if they lowballed by like 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 FWIW, I've put a bunch of the stuff that I saved from the past couple of days up on my storm monitoring site. I'll work on an index page when I have a chance and clean things up a bit but in case someone was looking for something, here it is: http://www.stormmonitoring.com/archive/20130208Blizzard/ If anyone wants to add something, PM me but it's kind of centered around my area.

free_man Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 31.1", ticking up with this final weenie band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Rollo Tomasi - SNow has decreased in intensity and we are in between bands right now. Ocean Effect is becoming enhanced now as winds move above warm waters, NWS mentioned Delta Ts around 22C. Extreme instability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Sucks that the TAN ASOS crapped the bed at about 11pm and did not go back online till 3am. Winds were ferocious during that time. Worse than Irene and Sandy or anything I recall in my 8 years here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 So close. That should be final and verifies the 2 foot plus albeit probably an under measure by a few inches. Yeah 27-29 would do it here and thats a mile away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I put down 27 inches in the snow table thread, but after driving around town I would not doubt that report. Town is shut down and overwhelmed, media is crawling all over this place.....from sandy to the blizzard of 2013 we are the center of the weather universe.....

dryslot Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Looks like we will finish with 25.5" here, The boy is doing the driveway, 150' of 3-4' snow with 4.5' where the plow went by at the end, Going to be a while..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Well, not official but I will get up along the coast and do some measuring post driving ban. I DID NOT clear the board every 6 hours. I had a hard time punching through the bottom 3" of ice and crud. Had to use a lacrosse stick in spots to get through. The wind blown off areas are about 16-18", the more protected areas range from 22 to 26". I'm shocked how much it's snowed in the 2.5 hours since I was last out. Snow is up to the 1st floor windows in spots in drifts, 5+ feet. I'd believe any report from 18-25" in this area. Like I said, I did not measure enough, nor do I believe you can accurately get a full measurement in 70 mph gusts. I'll try just back from the beach a little later. Incidentally sounds like 25-27" in the Sharon/Foxboro Easton area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I said I measured 27 but I try and be conservative, and went to bed last night at 1am while it was still dumping. We were in an excellent deform band from 1130 on all night, I have never seen this much snow, it blows 10-11 out of the water here, not even close.

SR Airglow Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Wow, some of these shots make my 19" look like an advisory event Farifield was just on News 12, it's just amazing how much snow they have there. Just got all the shoveling done outside, still pretty windy, it's blowing the snow around the rooftops pretty good. I sent the 19" to NWS and they included it in the report, I think it might be a touch low based on measurements around the neighborhood, but it's close enough, and i'll record it as the official total. -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Snowblowing done. Most shoveling done. Will do the back deck someday... Did more measuring. Avg of 21.5" friends across town got 25" drifting makes it hard. Bottom 6" was very dense ground up stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Torchey Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 My dad was absolutely shocked at the difference of snow between his house in norwalk and here in Fairfield, what a gradient it's usually the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lava Rock Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Looks like about 20". Hoped to have busted 24". Would have been nice to experience the death band here. Overall good storm. I'm doubting the 35.5" in Gorham, as another report stated 26" which seems more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
