Half those rates/totals would be a dream storm here in Iowa. Around here, >foot totals are next to impossible and even ten inch storms are rare. Four inches counts as a good storm. OceanStWx used to work here at DVN, so he knows how pathetic this area can be. That's the benefit of living near and ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codfishsnowman Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 21 minutes ago, MetHerb said: I'm wondering how some of those really low totals in the valley were measured. I know they got less snow but I had a wide variety of measurements whether I measured on pavement, cement, grass, car, picnic table, truck bed or on my snowboard. My "official" spot is my snow board and that's what goes in the record but I also got much lower readings on any of the ground measurements so I'm wondering if some of those measurements reflect measurements on the ground as opposed to a board? Nice light snow now...hopefully add some more overnight. it didn't snow more than flurries most of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to go to my front yard to measure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody measuring on pavement or waiting all day is probably under reporting what they got in the valley. I really don't care how either of you spin it...the forecast was horrible and the snow worse...its mid march in the valley and it flurries/scattered snow showers all day on warm ground etc etc I cleared once...have 4 total and 3.2 otg and it feels cheap reporting 4 it is still half or less of what was forecast for the entire valley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Not using a board here so I suppose official totals would a bit more. Current depth is 4.2. .4 new past hour. I'll go with a 5 spot. Official protocol may have been closer to 6 here with board/clearing etc,. but I'm usually not around during an entire storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Paul Gordon Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 This has to have been the biggest snowfall of the season here. Got a good hit in January 17" with lots of wind, etc., but the drifting and general depth of today's storm outdid that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semper911 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 All my measurements averaged out to an even 20", and I came in to look at the NWS snow totals page. 20" for Woonsocket. So 20" it is. Still snowing somewhat, but bfd. I can't remember ever getting 20" in such a short duration. The bulk of it came between sunup and sundown.
