sankaty Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 23" so far. Middletown got 50" in 1888, so we won't be eclipsing that. Hoping to get to 30". I'm not clearing, so at this point I'm battling settling and wind packing, so it will be a bit tougher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisM Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 eastern flanks of the Berks getting pounded with heavy snow.. Same here on the east slope foothills of the berks.

Typhoon Tip Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Finally the 78 storm is dethroned. RIP No it is not! not even close.... Tide attribute destruction and spatial coverage of 25+ " snow totals not nearly of that tier... But we have a ways to go - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostonseminole Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 pouring snow.. should crack 15-16 by 2 am, but tired.. going to bed will be up early to measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 It got further west I think and it's stronger. HRRR wasn't far enough west...although I'll say this these guys always say the heaviest band ends up NW of where we'd normally think and that's pretty much what happened today. NAM had it crushing down here right now, and it's sucking wind as we're spinning dry pockets in circles. Euro...lol even the new Euro is struggling with CT/LI. The NAM got crapped on for days....was pretty lousy until this time last night and then it looks like it did better than most. Anyway, the game changed down here when we lost the stall south/se of the cape and it became e and now the new 0z Euro for 12z Saturday is another touch NNE, good for Maine and ski country, bad for the Cape. Great storm, just would have been happier MBY with the Euro of a day or so ago but then again I've lived through 78/97/05 and I'm glad Ryan and others are getting their turn. Yea...in my mind, the book has been written...anything on the backside will be transient. Great event, but frustrating that the truly epic totals will end up unexpectedly west.

joey2002 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 flakes are gigantic right now lol...2'+ almost a lock at this pt. How much do you have right now? Western CT always seems to get the meso banding... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Windcredible! Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Conservative Upton calling for 20-36" in their 10:17pm update for their four ct counties... At this point...26"-40" is probably more accurate. Absolutely epic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 There's some pretty impressive mesobands forming over SW NH and N ORH county collapsing S....Hunchback will "Boxing Day II" his way to 20"+ probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROOSTA Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Ridiculous to call game over before it all shakes out. Numerous storms, feeling like a screw job for 8 hours then BAM storm pulling out leaves a foot in the 9th inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 eastern flanks of the Berks getting pounded with heavy snow.. Greenfield in SN++ right now. I'm in awe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Well, it's been great fun, but time to sign off and get some sleep, lots of shoveling to do tomorrow! Final report is probably 16" here IMBY, mostly SN+occasionally SN when it calms down for a few minutes. SN+ right now, and according to radar should continue for a while longer. Not really sure how much is IMBY, all I know is it's atleast 12", and I think 16" is pretty close, but really have no idea. 50-50 that I end up with 20"+, but either way it's amazing. Be safe everyone, don't do anything silly outside, and most of all ENJOY THE SNOW!!! :snowing: -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
free_man Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 getting heavy snow again, below 1/4 mi. Wouldn't be surprised to see some 16-20" totals shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 It's a bit heartbreaking to see the yellow pixels start to wash out now that they are so near. I left my cam on and opened the aperture all the way up. You can still see the lights at the Weirs so the snow is light to moderate. http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=88726'>webcam.jpg The leading edge of it is here now. Heaviest snow yet. This is the way I like the bands. They take their time getting up here, crawl, and then die overhead. I'd like it NW about another 10 miles though because of these N winds.

Berlin1926 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 The CT Governor story has only been mentioned on TWC. So, take it with a grain of salt. I can say that in hurricanes down here in the Republican dominated South, emergency vehicles will be ordered off the roads. So, if it's true, it's not unprecedented.

Ginx snewx Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Just ripping, ripping, and puking snow. October 2011 was special for different reasons. This is pretty much a top snowstorm.

Syrmax Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Wow man, thanks. Long time. You still upstate NY? Yep, between SYR and Oswego! Living the Lake Effect life (90" and counting so far, 7" this storm). Living vicariously thru you all on this storm (and previous storms). Lived in SE CT for 20 yrs and the only gdam decent snowstorm we got was 1996 (along w/ that winter in gen'l). The rest of it was trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 No it is not! not even close.... Tide attribute destruction and spatial coverage of 25+ " snow totals not nearly of that tier... But we have a ways to go - How crazy is the wind out over eastern MA? Gusts over hurricane force at this point? We dealt with that for Sandy, but can't imagine what that would do with snow added onto it plus spring tides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
