Still a fun storm but pedestrian totals for most in SNE. Expand I don't know if I'd call a foot of snow pedestrian but still a larger snowfall would have been much nicer.

dendrite Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 We're pulling off 2-3"/hr with meh snow growth too. When I was just out I was getting plastered with mostly needles. So my hunch is we're doing this with closer to 10:1 ratios and putting up a 1/4" of liquid per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Much wetter snow than I expected, probably why the totals are a bit lower. Some pretty crazy house rattlers out there tho. Really impressive gusts at times. 10.5" here so far. Biggest single storm total of the season, perviously 9.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Yep, that band in PF's radar grab came through and dumped a couple of inches in a pretty short period of time. It's really starting pile up, nearly corgi deep now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 CON has had 2 straight hours of M1/4SM and 30-35mph gusts with 0.08" in the can for each of the last 2 hours. I've had 6" in the last 2 hours...they're definitely underreporting the water equiv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 12.5'' new. Rates back to a more reasonable 1-1.5''/hr. Over a foot and some of the most intense snow/wind I've seen. Can't complain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 If what's going on outside my window isn't worthy of a blizzard warning, then the criteria needs to be reevaluated.
