40/70 Benchmark Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Redsoxdude, if you measured 25-30" on the level after the event had ended, then I'd add a good 2-3" to that in order to account for compaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's what I did, took the average and added 2-3" for a total of 30". Taunton ended up tossing Kevin's 35" report anyway and replaced it with 30.5", lol.

codfishsnowman Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I have spoken with a number of people over the past several months from the meriden/Wallingford areas and they all say the depth was close to three feet on the level and one guy who is a bit of a weather geek who lives in meriden said the jan 11 storm was two feet but this one just crushed it as he measured 34-36 inches depth early that Saturday morning. this thread is awesome and we know now in modern times that a snow storm of at least three feet is possible in sne away from the elevated terrain, I shudder to think if a block was in place and or the storm was maybe fity miles further n/w and that firehose of moisture was lifted back into the Litchfield hills and Berkshires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow_Miser Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Anyone have some of the models runs leading up to the storm?

Snow_Miser Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 You're talking to the wrong group for 3/7/13. 3/8/13 was a snow bomb here. The first part of the coastal system significantly underperformed for nearly everyone in the Mid Atlantic. It was the second part of the system that overperformed tremendously for New England into the NYC region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Funny how some people inflated snow totals even though they had like 29" lollol, I remember seeing your channels crew in Plainfield doing a live shot when I went to check on my mother in law. I wanted to stop and tell them to go up the road to my drift spot, good 10 footers there. Lets do it again soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how you can see the lofted snow in the background (what looks like wavy clouds). Same terminal building in 2009 blizzard, it's about 800 feet away from where I'm taking the picture.
