ma blizzard Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 under the 20+ dbz echoes just east of orh and flake size has increased modestly over the past 10 mins .. might be heaviest of the event so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxsniss Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I like "general public", whoever that is: Boston 13.5 1112 PM 1/02 general public 1 N East Boston 10.6 1200 am 1/03 Logan Airport Winthrop 10.6 1159 PM 1/02 none Though tbh the Logan reports are consistent with the surrounding metro reports. The Winthrop guy is the Logan measure if you didn't know that. Yeah I've seen the Winthrop / Logan measures for years, but who's the "general public"? I remember measures in previous years from Boston Commons, I wonder if that's the same. Band from Worcester to Lowell has improved noticeably in past 15 min, might give us a little burst.

BostonWX Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The Winthrop guy is the Logan measure if you didn't know that. You look to be doing well... And the usual suspects Abington area seem to be cashing in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSnowman Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Radar days not much happening in West Roxbury but let me tell you is pouring snow. 10.5" best guess but you really won't find it anywhere. The idea of this being the fluffiest site ever is long gone as it has compacted. We may have gotten 30:1 ratios on 0.5" only but it compacted back hence about 10" lol. Cause it's obviously historically cold. Just came in from the awesome drove around the town. Does not feel any colder than 20*F even though the wind chill is -20*F. I've always been convinced that once you go below 20*F you can't really tell the difference OUTSIDE of how long your in it. That's where the difference is. You could only be out for 3 to 4 minutes before you said DAMN this is Cold as Negative HELL! Vs. 20*F where you could stay out all day as I do when I sled.

jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Living vicariously through you guys (though we are getting it pretty good down here) ... phenomenal post. What an epic storm, subzero with moderate snow... unreal. Yeah, we sure are. Some of the wintriest and coldest/windiest conditions we've experienced around NYC in a decade (January 2004 might come close remembering the midmonth clipper that dropped 8" on Long Island, but without the wind). Looks like the radar's lighting up over us-hopefully that's the start of the inverted trough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya but that's your compact total and I always have more than you being higher elevation lol. I feel like we should have 7.5". I'll know tomorrow as in not going to get much sleep tonight and have to drive home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Activity there has been somewhat lethargic with this batch so far. Models were hinting at this, hopefully there's a good amount of snow to come for all.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Meh still but improved. At least as of the latest pns my skepticism of the higher totals around here seemed warranted. Nobody was close to the 14-15+ forecast by most. Heck sandwich wasn't even to 6" yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 This storm went old school. What a snow band around Scott on the south shore. Old fashioned oes supported dumpage.

ROOSTA Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 3-4' drifts abound. Will be close to impossible to get accurate SF measurements. Gazing out the window the landscape is a uniform mantle of white, no definition of road to yard. A moderate clip still falls. Temperature never did reach zero but the wind is close, ground blizzard with 50 yards visibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxsniss Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Wow is it impressive out there in Fella's hood. Best snowfall since evening. These last bands really blossomed since 2AM from 495 east and Box's widespread 14-18 may in fact verify. Pics coming. Hard to be out for more than 5 minutes.
