wxeyeNH Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 24.5" Final. Measured several areas. This is with no clearing. Are these 35-44" reports from people that have not cleared and are measuring in non wind areas? Wish we had a Utube video of someone taking these measurements so we can see exactly where they are in relationship to other objects etc. Just seems so remarkable for a short time. I was slightly north of the death band earlier this morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx2fish Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I see a 40" spot on the PNS for Andover...considering my uncle measured 35" at the end, its believable to me. He also said that might be conservative. Meanwhile, a measy 10" down here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitinsvilleWX Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I just finished cleaning up. I measured several spots and came up with around 13. My Ariens popped an auger cable during the snow a couple weeks ago. Part came in yesterday afternoon thank god. Post office took forever to deliver it.

ORH_wxman Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 Getting a quick sunset now as the flurries have ended. What a site. Im guessing about 14” is our final when I check it out officially. Funny how 14 inches sounds so paltry when it’s an incredibly good storm in mid December. But when a mesoband is giving people 40 inches, anything else feels insignificant. Lol But what a great storm. Had some amazing rates last night and the snow has some meat to it. It’s not 20 to 1 blower. Prob like 12 to 1 or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 For the first time since he moved there in the late 90’s, my dad in New Milford was the CT Jack at 16.5”. That area is typically a terrible snow hole in coastals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCWarrior Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Several of my students reported 24" plus in Lanesborough, MA. What a burial! I bet the top of Mount Greylock got 36" easy money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a pure positive surprise. We didn't even get in on the truly insane rates, but still a big overperformer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty dense stuff too. Certainly not cement but not fluffy either. Beast did quite well. Was already skiing in great by noon. Had enough meat in it to cover stuff up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the storm where Newtown got like 22'' and Danbury only got like 13''...I thought New Milford pulled off close to 20'' (not jackpot obviously) but I remember being pissed b/c Danbury ended up on the wrong side of the band and I thought the way it was structured it hit New Milford too.

bristolri_wx Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 LOL nice snow band moving through as a grand finale. It’s cold now so it’s sticking again. This storm delivered even though we ended up on low end of guidance here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a warning sign for days that models like the GFS and Euro were too cold. But we could’ve had a few inches extra if the WAA snow last night didn’t become chopped up after a few hours. That allowed warm air aloft to come in faster. Notice how the mix line essentially stopped then started north again when the precip broke up. Anyway 10.5” in Central Park and a 7-12” event overall in the city is great for December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
