GON FTW Well I'm not going to argue with an eyewitness. So Tolland/Vernon looked like a legit 14-15 new to you? That really is amazing. Totally under the radar, must have been low level stuff?

Mount snow reports have been tough to dissect this year but looked like 4-6” total I think. Thanks! Woodford is pretty much the snow capital of southern Vermont, so I would trust the measurements from there more than the ski areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Dryslot Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 @Damage In Tolland @JC-CT Went down to the Wendy's on Talcottville Rd. Looking at the height of the plow banks and the cuts snowblowers have made there's not a doubt in my mind that EOR got at least a foot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our location between the ORH hills/Monads and coastal front is going to sit in the subby zone a lot. I know this is likely one of those "easier said than done" things, but if you're going to invest this much emotionally only to be consistently let down, then might want to change the situation. Well, I get that you are saying, but its usually not THIS bad....these past four seasons have been thing short of brutal. Again, I understand our area will seldom jackpot in the largest events, but there is a difference between not jackpotting and what has gone on these past 4 years....that has nothing to do with not sniffing climo snowfall since March 2018. However, I will be moving back a bit closer to the coast in a 2-3 years....I am originally from Wilmington- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'd be curious if anyone has taken a core. It's definitely possible that ratios were better further west of the big band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 So BOS tied top one-day I gather ... for the 2-day which was only 0.2 higher this is where it fits into the list that was posted by sonebody (forget who now) that I copied from their source, and which needed editing as shown because they had come up with two entries for two storms that ran three days (a list of this kind should have only the storm's better two-day total, I think). Some hidden coding in the block copy has conveniently updated the rank numbers, my edit screen shows them as they had been before I inserted the new 6th place Blizzard of 2022. I cannot edit that without just typing it all over myself. And I cannot vouch for either the accuracy of this list or its acceptability as being "official" but for what it's worth ... Feb. 18, 2003: 27.6 inches Feb. 7, 1978: 27.1 inches April 1, 1997: 25.4 inches Feb. 9, 2013: 24.9 inches Jan. 27, 2015: 24.4 inches (new to list Jan 29, 2022 __ 23.8 inches) Feb. 17, 2003: 23.6 inches **** Jan. 23, 2005: 22.5 inches (should be 7th) Jan. 28, 2015: 22.3 inches **** 1Feb. 9, 2015: 22.2 inches (should be 8th) Jan. 21, 1978: 21.4 inches (should be 9th) Dates shown are second of any two-day totals. (my edit to the above ... **** are secondary reports of a storm in the list, and should not be in the list) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaStorm05 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Ok so I drove down from Willimantic on 32 south to 395 and then through Waterford to E Lyme. I didn’t really see obviously higher amounts of snow until I got down to about exit 6 on 395. Beyond there I could tell there was more snow…. But it was not fantastically more, and glancing at the fields and drifts I could reason there was at around a foot of snow that fell… But I’m very suspicious of these 15-20 inch totals being reported for the area. Either it was just my luck that the route was in a winding screw zone all the way to the coast, courtesy of HAARPA preventing snow on highways, or people were using some emotional rulers, the kind I started with before I went out and did field averages. That or the fields truly underrepresented what fell because the wind carries the snow off smaller fields into drifts when the topography is erratic. I don’t think there’s more than a foot out there in the areas I have passed in SE CT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 3hr cleanup. Surprisingly light/fluffy to blow around compared to the storms I'm normally dealing with. Measured 20-22" settled. Impressive amount of snow out there. Drifts 3-4' around. Did the driveway and path around the house to access the patio/basement and oil supply. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FXWX Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 This is what it looks like after clean up at 1,160 feet in far western Hartford County (about quarter mile from Litchfield County line) after ~10 inches of snow and frequent wind gusts above 35 mph. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had measurements all over the place, but the driveway this morning was between 13-15"..so assuming it settled at bit. Was helping out the inlaws in Centerville - they had a bit less than us. About 11-12" settled in their driveway but was also heavier in nature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BostonWX Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Too much variation to get a good measurement, maybe go with 25/26. And the meat of the good stuff was a couple miles SE with the 30+. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggiebot Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I’m curious who had the longest time frame with consistent blizzard conditions. I’m in Dennis. I would estimate we had blizzard conditions from 7am right through to almost 9pm. We had a lull in the snow for an hour or two but it was still a ground blizzard the whole time.

40/70 Benchmark Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Here are my thoughts....I feel like some people in interior NE MA are measuring in drifts. I just drove down to my sister's, near the N Reading line in eastern Wilmington, and the avg depth was 10-11". My current average depth is 8-9", settled down from 10-11" last night. I am confident that I had about 12" of total snowfall, and Wilmington had about 14", and really do not care to argue the point. Will do a full post-storm write up later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
