radarman Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 we've busted bigger snowtotal forecasts we've seen sharper gradients we've missed in more directions simulaneously but at least there was a good reason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 4 minutes ago, wxsniss said: Finally for Fella / SR Airglo / SBosWx and others in Boston metro... it's been like watching paint dry for improvement in flake size for past hour but we are finally tasting the edge of the meat... she's fading but there are solid 30+ dbz returns... at the rate it's moving, this looks healthy for next 1-1.5 hours at least H7 fronto: Yeah we're doing much better now - not pounding yet but solid improvement in flake size and fluff factor. Heading up to the top of the hill to attempt to build a ski jump shortly since driving to wawa is probably a no go right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisStraight Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Glad you guys got in on the death band, I was right on the edge of it, got super lucky, 18" and that last think band is over me, maybe I can hit 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 5 minutes ago, JC-CT said: Did anyone notice the 18z 3km NAM drops another 2' on @powderfreak? 5" today at a steady 0.5-1.0"/hr rate most of the afternoon. We'll just tick away for the next 48 hours lol. Snow rates in the mountains should get up there on the NW flow. I think the ski resorts end with 24-36". It's not death band snow but it is truly "days and days"... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Now we’re nearly pounding as the band slowly moves in. I like the fact that it doesn’t want to speed up. Should be good for several inches more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summerthyme Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Definitely better rates now, though flake size continues to be small. I still feel good about my morning call of 13" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisrotary12 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 If this mega band could start to pivot around to NW-SE then I might make a run at 2'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo1 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Getting crushed had a pine limb come down that is now hanging on my power lines hoping more don't follow but it is probable with these rates we are looking at another 6 at least is my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxsniss Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Nice from Box... this is a healthy and slow band, 1-2" / hr incoming for Boston metro folks... this should get everyone into the 15-20" range: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry1978 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 if you live a mile or less from the ocean in extreme SE CT, along the south coast of RI and MA please report your totals. I'm pretty surprised to hear about totals in south Dartmouth and new Bedford of 10-13 inches and I'm wondering if these totals are actually a couple miles inland with lesser totals along south facing beaches. For example westerly extends several miles inland and I'm wondering what the totals are a mile from the ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTWeatherFreak Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Skunked here, as we all know. Spotter reported 4" in We Ha. I think thats what I got here, but half of that's melted away... It melted faster than it accumulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
