I think we were probably close to 3/ hour as the band moved east after 7:00 also what a storm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second half was better imo....it was slightly more intense and really slowed at the quintessentially perfect time, as another developed behind it and filled.

I'm looking to submit a report and want to hear other numbers before I do. 16 inches. Probably a tad low but I’m going with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Took a two hour ski tour around the hill during the height of the banding (5:30 - 7:30 ish) and that redeemed a lot of the negatives about this event. Not sure what the final was here since I didn't keep any measurements but likely a respectable amount in the end - 15" ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't lie, I was being a b*tch earlier. So close yet so far from something epic here. I'm happy that you cashed in of all people though. You certainly know the feeling. 30" was a hell of a call too. You were out on the skinniest limb with that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Apparently some mid level magic made its way to north central VT because have about 24". Pics below. Excuse the Ginx quality tape measure pic. It reads 20" when I took it at 7:00. The deck had been cleared after the last storm as had the other surfaces in the pics, including a large portion of the back yard. The snow was exceptionally light and airy. It was easy to wade through. Still snowing too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BombsAway1288 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 This was taken in a park in Eastie right next to the airport on the west side. Didn't measure. We'll see what Logan reports at 1am. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angus Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 18-19" in Concord MA. Definitely will see some localized higher amounts reports. Two measurements - around 2PM and then an hour or so ago. Local school district is making an announcement of either 2 hour delay or no school at 4:30AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, had they been watching the radar, they would have a better understanding of how the storm played out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
