I guess I should count Feb13, even though I wasn’t in town. So this area specifically has missed all timers to the east, south, west, and north by like 25miles 9yrs running now. Of course you should could Feb 13. Or would you count the snow you got on a trip to Aspen Colorado as a backyard hit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in the Champlain Valley, we were a tad below (horizontal advection) ground blizzard criteria with 6 hours of steady north winds of 16-21mph with gusts between 24-31mph for the duration. There was only two hourly obs of snowfall for the entire storm (some lake-enhanced diamond dust) and the high was 1°F with a low of -8°F. I’m about 18mi south of Burlington. There were some vertical advection components to the storm here with numerous 100m snow devils, likely terrain and lake-enhanced induced since I am just southeast of the lake. NH won this round, VT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM takes the award for inconsistency. Thing was all over the place. Hell one run was OTC late in the game.

So true, at least this time the big numbers were farther east than 2015 and not as widespread Had 5 inches of arctic sand here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to see constant snow we have to move to the lakes. I average in NYC around 28 inches . I know Boston averages in the 40s but it doesn't snow there all the time.

No but most of us have a decent pack and it's mid winter cold out so it's better than what we started with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend in Heath, who sends reports to NWS regularly is at 1400’ and she only has 19” for the season. I’m not sure what Berkshire East season total is but it’s probably similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Valley Dryslot Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 So there's like no measurements for Tolland and Hartford Counties, so I'm just going to guess I got 15". @Damage In Tolland what did you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve actually got a BTV NWS employee living not too far away. I usually check their total in the PNS to make sure I’m not too far out of whack. I’m usually within half an inch or so.

I was in the heart of that band for pretty much the whole time and I had 31 and Norton as well and they had like 30… I’m pretty sure Sharon and probably Stoughton were at least fringed for some of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx2fish Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Gonna go with 13". It was fairly consistent in my flat sheltered yard. Already compacted over an inch since last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 My final total will be an educated guess. Too much blowing and drifting to be sure. Looks like a solid 20-24” based on past experiences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sn0waddict Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 9 hours ago, jm1220 said: 12-13” of snow where I am is not a fail by any means, and it looks like an all timer at Islip. Long Island had an awesome event. But have to wonder what would’ve been. The people who have to really complain are CT. Logan may have way jumped over Central Park because of the dumbbell!! (Who knows but something to think about) The only reason I am not too upset is because it was pretty well modeled that there was going to be a sharp cutoff west of SE CT. I was hoping for more but I kinda was expecting to only get the scraps, which is what ended up happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I believe this wound up vertically stacking in the central Gulf Of Maine and got down to 965. This ended up deeper and more west of yesterday’s guidance but east and weaker of the big runs being advertised the day before. The big totals in Delaware, New Jersey and Long Island, indicates to me that the early H5 close off was real, but the surface kicked NE and didn’t stack until in the GOM. The spread out timing between closing off and capture lead to a broader circulation but a weaker storm (min surface pressure), but sig snows and wind over a larger area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
