iceman56 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 2.0" on the snowboard (picnic table), but only about an inch left in the grass. Some light drizzle and up to 36.0. Always a little sad to see winter's pathetic last gasp. This was a fitting end to a winter that except for the one storm underperformed. Now on to the misery otherwise known as summer.

Animal Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 calling it at .6" total awful imop. I would have expected at a min 3 or 4 inches when looking at the model runs in your area. whats your elevation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeSeNJ Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I would say at least 2 inches on top of car and on grass, Snow was accumulating on street as well which was impressive for April 9 in this area. seems to be winding down now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 When I made my last post, there was about 1/2" on the cold surfaces (eg fence posts and walls). After the last burst, with alot of fog taking vis down to about 1/2 mile, there was another 1/2" laid down. Currently SN- + fog. Temp 34F. Winds light out of the NW. Nothing sticking on the streets or walks although I'm concerned that it'll all freeze up overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 awful imop. I would have expected at a min 3 or 4 inches when looking at the model runs in your area. whats your elevation? approx 565' Just guessing I would say around .12" or so liquid horrendous performance on all models outside the euro, even that ended up two wet. Special award for futility to this mornings RGEM and it's .50-.75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special award for futility to this mornings RGEM and it's .50-.75" Iverted trofs are good at outsmarting models. and always have been. The amounts, placements and shape of the precip shield were wrong on almost all models. Glad mount holly played it well. LWX would have had to cancel a lot of winter storm warnings.

BBasile Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 1.5" total. Would have been nice if it would have stuck throughout the entire event, with no changeover. Still a nice surprise in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 Agreed Iceman I can only report 2.0" on the white snowboard....I did find 4" on the grass in spots but I can't report grass totals....blades prop it up too much, Either way we ended up with almost 41" of snow so about 4.5" above normal for our area....while a non-winter we somehow managed above normal snowfall with the big contribution of the January blizzard Me thinks a relatively hot summer is on the way.....one early call I have for next winter is a much colder Christmas season....how's that for an easy forecast? 2.0" on the snowboard (picnic table), but only about an inch left in the grass. Some light drizzle and up to 36.0. Always a little sad to see winter's pathetic last gasp. This was a fitting end to a winter that except for the one storm underperformed.

codfishsnowman Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I am glad some of you got a few inches of spring snow but I feel like this storm was a dud overall everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDoppler Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 2" on the car top. (white paint) Grass not worth mentioning, eyeballing 1.5" but the way the grass sticks up it's impossible to tell for sure. If I had a snowboard I'd be guessing 2". The grass in my yard is long so I think it picks up a little solar energy and actually melts the snow better than the car top or a white snowboard would do. (plus the ground is warm) In the shady part of my driveway a coating developed before it stopped. I guess the better precip amounts were further south of me, correct?

snowwors2 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Wasn't able to get a good snow measurement but my Davis shows .33 w.e. currently, not sure if there's more in there yet to melt down. Call it 2" snow in shaded cold surface spots. Very nice picturesque April event for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling it 3.1" total here on top of the car. And this is why I like to have the grass short before a snow :-) (mowed the front yesterday afternoon). Not that it matters that much in April, most of it will melt tomorrow. I did enjoy the snow today, even as I'm liking the warmer weather forecast for later this week...still ready for spring here!

Snow-total-4-09-16.jpg That would have been 10 inches of rodent snow in january. You can almost see water in the snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Despite some decent rates at times, I couldn't muster more than a slushy coating. On to 12/5/16!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wederwarrior Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Was able to muster about .75 inches after an all day event. Bring on the 70's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaEasternWX Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Kind of upsetting that I missed the storm but it seems like it was good. I hear around here it was 3 inches ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
