ROOSTA Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 So with continued ~4-5hrs of nirvana at these rates. One might expect 12-14" region-wide... somewhere where the ribbons pivot and rot 24" is not beyond the realm of obtaining! Just the math, just doing the math. KU anyone?

Typhoon Tip Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 these idiots are driving their entitled SUVs through 18" deep slush seawater down in Winthrop... wtf - okay... High tide is going to be a trip. Btw, was there even coastal flood alerts? There had to have been... we aren't that far off an astro tide. It's funny how the news sets up to give the affect of it being everywhere ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’d say so...at 11 inches here in central CT...and this has a few hours to go. I’d say KU for sure imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Really tough to measure out there. My best guess is about 8". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMike Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 14 minutes ago, TauntonBlizzard2013 said: 20” in reach here? At about a foot. Looks like the pivot will be nearby I'm about at one foot, as well. Moderate to heavy snow accompanied by strong winds all day long so far (Pawtucket, RI). I'm surprised the Attleboro/Providence/Pawtucket area didn't dry slot, change to sleet, spontaneously combust, etc... I'm not used to this area performing well during winter storms. I'm glad I made the trip from CT to experience this! This is truly a memorable event for this area imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_greenhorn Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 8 minutes ago, PowderBeard said: Was wondering about this too. According to radar it should be the lighter but if anything it is 1-2" per hour with the biggest flakes of the day. I think it's because I was looking at base reflectivity vs. composite. Composite doesn't show a dry slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our wind just now kicked up and vis is way down. Went to grocery store an hour ago, I was very meh, but my tune has changed! I knew I’d be late to the game though.

ROOSTA Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Can't imagine the destruction if it was slow moving. Probably a (wobble) slowing and move more Northerly in the Gulf of Maine as it max's out. Any station confirm Blizzard criteria yet? These are the days I miss good Ole Mass.

There could be some narrower intense bands later on as this thing swings NE of us....but I'm not sure it'sgoing to congeal into this monster thing. Banding is inherently hard to predict.
