Randy4Confluence Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 It's hilarious, because when someone interprtets a model run of for a small /mid size storm, and belches meh or utter outrage because we're not getting 2', I'm secretly smug and smiling. I think Kevin's in my camp too, as far as I've inferred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HimoorWx Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 What?? I'd take one 37 inch dump and sacrifice every flake for the rest of the season. Likewise. I was in RI for blizzard of 78 with 3 feet of snow and the south shore last year for 8 feet of snow in 3 weeks. To me, last year was more amazing that 78, but I would love to see another blizzard of 78 dump 3 to 4 feet! Give me that tomorrow and I won't care if we don't see another flake until next year.

I agree. As amazing as 2/'78 must have been, nothing tops the aggregate impact of what transpired last season. Especially for my local area because as I had discussed with Will in the immediate aftermath, the blizzard last year was relatively comparable to that event IMBY. Snow amount was about dead-nuts on, but obviously the wind was not quite as severe. So knock 15 mph off of the winds.....we have the '78 event, which was followed by a slow methodical decay of winter, and the 2015 juggernaut, that marked the beginning of boreal winter's version of hell on earth as this section of the country has come to know it. No contest. Additionally, March 1993 satiated my drift fetish.....I don't think Feb '78 was worse than that, aside from only featuring about half the mount of snow....

I've never seen anything even close to '78 for drifting - the winds in RI were insane. I had taken my cross country skis with me to work on Monday and skied home on Tuesday. I fell into a drift in the middle of the road and literally could not get out - totally submerged. I was lucky someone was outside at their house and helped pull me out. I wonder what the snow measurements would have been using today's methods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what the snow measurements would have been using today's methods? 3 to 5 feet easy, sh it North Foster RI had 4.5 qpf with temps no higher than 26, they recorded 35 measuring once a day, as you well know the compaction in that storm was crazy.

If I remember correctly, there was a measurement of about 35 inches in East Providence and the snow was heavy and wet for a while overnight. I suspect it would have been over 40 inches now.

tamarack Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Been since 2/16/15 that I have seen a real snowstorm....outside of that three week stretch, its been almost two years Boston had four storms with 16-24" each during that period. If that's the threshold for a real snowstorm, I've not seen one since Feb 2009. I did see the aftermath of the Jan blizzard but not the storm itself, except in its mega-busted persona in SNJ. Touched -12 this morning, not bad for 1st subzero of the season. Ice has caught on Long Lake in Belgrade, which had only some tiny shoreline skim before last night. Saw -20 for both BML and PQI.

Hopefully it stays. That lake was always hard to freeze up compared to great pond. Seems like the wind direction on long lake made it tough to freeze up, except for the shallow coves on the Rome end.
