joey2002 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 It was the best porno movie I have ever seen. It was like baseball sized snowflakes. 1 foot of snow in 2 hours. Small animals Didnt have time to get to higher ground Yeah I wouldn't even call them flakes... just huge snowballs being hurled from the sky. Never seen anything like it. Were you out when any of the hail chunks were coming down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Yeah I wouldn't even call them flakes... just huge snowballs being hurled from the sky. Never seen anything like it. Were you out when any of the hail chunks were coming down? Yeah I went out twice during the climax scene and grabbed measurements..My neighbor was out snowblowing..and the next day he said he couldn't believe he was done and 6 more inches had accumulated in half an hour lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Yeah I went out twice during the climax scene and grabbed measurements..My neighbor was out snowblowing..and the next day he said he couldn't believe he was done and 6 more inches had accumulated in half an hour lol That almost sounds like what I saw in 2/28-3/01 2005. Will loves that storm. I had just over a foot in about 3-4 hrs. For an hour, the sky was choking aggregates. When those echoes moved in, I almost thought it would be sleet, but it was pounding snow. That storm was originally suppose to be mostly rain for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time he finished, he said that a fresh 10 inches had fallen where he started, lol. When was the last time anyone has seen 6" per hour type rates like that?

Will said in April 97 storm some areas up there had 6-8 inches an hour but not as widespread as we saw over much of CT.

We will be see anything like that in our lives again i bet some of us sure will. it seems anomalous storms are becoming more common. perhaps it takes another decade , for 6in/hr rates. someone will get bomb'd again with super rates. 8 inch.....ya perhaps not DRACUT FINAL 23.5 PEPPEREL FINAL 22.0 AYER FINAL 21.0 (8.0 BETWEEN 1030AM-1130AM) TOWNSEND FINAL 21.0 CHELMSFORD FINAL 20.4 (6.0 BETWEEN 11AM-1230PM) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 LOL you'll be crying for your momma when you violently regress. Yeah CT is due for 10 years of no snow after some of our recent luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Yeah CT is due for 10 years of no snow after some of our recent luck This isn't true. Besides some of the big hits we've had our winters the past decade have been pretty meh. After like '04-'05 besides 07-08, and two years ago we've had some pretty lousy winters.

After like '04-'05 besides 07-08, and two years ago we've had some pretty lousy winters. I feel like since '05 we've done pretty well with KUs compared to eastern Mass. Boston is just a better KU spot that Hartford/Tolland but the last few years have been good to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying our winters as a whole have been mostly craptastic the past decade. Luckily that Feb blizzard hit us or we'd have yet another boring well below average winter for snow most likely.

wx2fish Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 You mean Dec 23 1997. You will remember this when you're back to 14" max snowfall. 12/23/97 is heaviest snow Ive ever seen. 20" in like 5-6 hours. Started on the way to school and was over by the ride home. Buses got stuck everywhere on the way home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECT Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Yeah CT is due for 10 years of no snow after some of our recent luck Hey now. We've had some real dead ratters and some less than normal years recently too. Say, like last year, and there was one winter around 2000 that it seemed like it was 50º until mid January. But yeah, we've had a few memorable storms too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I don't know if anyone saw this, but our colleagues at NWS Raleigh put together a beautiful map of the Blizzard snowfall... Blizzard2013_snowfall_totals.jpg They did a great job with this!!! Enjoy!! --Turtle Yeah they are awesome at case studies on past events! I have to say I was fortunate enough to be in the middle of this epic event here (at the time 3-5" was forecast and I came out with 21"): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
