We’re gonna end up just barely shy of 12”. No complaints here 

[kdxken]

Not sure if it was posted, I apologize if it was , Waha  is closed for the night because the power is out. Talk about a kick in the balls...

Yep, although I never looked hard at this one since it was favored up there.

@mahk_webstah how much for you?

I've been tracking closely with Brian all day.  Earlier I seemed to be 1/2 inch ahead, but at 11.5 my driveway was snowblown and I lost a clean area.  And is snowed hard for a while after.  So 15, maybe 15.5 here.  On the ground between 15-20 in open areas and 18-22 in the woods.  We transform.

The qpf in CON was tremendous but your buddies at WPC had a pretty large area of around 1.25, which is why I thought it would overperform.  Now onto Wednesday-Thursday and what could be an epic run for a few of us.  I really hope you guys get into this soon - board is so much better when you are all weenie-ing out, like you started doing this afternoon.

1.52” of w.e. at CON. Wow.

I wonder how much contamination they got for that brief period this morning.  Maybe they hit 18?

Yeah. They had trouble early on with icing getting making it hard to open the lifts.  Then the power cut out late afternoon.     This storm packed a punch.

Last bands coming through. Snow growth actually still pretty decent in this

 

Worcester reporting in 4.0" of snow from this event...this puts them over last years total to date but still more than a foot below the average to date.

Didn't realize Worcester had such a crappy year last year? What did they end up with?

Nearly 5”…should eclipse it if we haven’t already as this was about 10 min ago 

 

Never would have guessed that lol. Banding ftw.

[HoarfrostHubb]

All done here

1) several models at various times kept showing strips of high qpf across the area from me-Brian-Jeff.  2) And WPC qpf numbers were solid for several days.  3) for me the clincher was the radar presentation yesterday.  classic coastal redeveloper look loaded with moisture.

Hopefully we get some as this pattern changes. Hell getting any snow Wednesday will be a win here compared to what it looked like two days ago. 
This part performed well here so no complaints.

Super!  Your area really got pounded during the day.  We had 6.3" by 7 AM and I was pleased with another 3.8" to reach double digits and a 24" pack, but you must've had 9-10" after 7.

11"

[PowderBeard]

And just like that it shut off. Measured in 5 or 6 different spots, finished up with somewhere between 16-17". Snowpack in the yard is measuring 24-26" deep. Someone in New Gloucester probably got 18"+.

It’ll be game on for local snowmobiling all the way down to windham and Standish

53.6 last year at ORH. Not quite a ratter but not good. 

[Lava Rock]

14.5"

Awaiting PNS, wonder if KBOS passed 1936-37 (all time ratter) total today… still ahead of 2011-12 in futility

Jet streaks FTW too. That powerful exit region worked some magic and prob turned this from mundane 1-2” to lots of 3-6” amounts.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

[STILL N OF PIKE]

Just a pasting across New England 

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

Just shoveled, solid 3 inches on cold surfaces… 1.5-2 on the driveway and road. Still coming down good

Yeah I noticed that last night when you or whoever brought that up. Probably helped for sure.

Nah a few wet flakes to end. 

[weathafella]

Been walking over an hour-still snowing lightly.  Heading home to measure and shovel.

[Damage In Tolland]

4” final 

First 3.0 was wet but the last inch was powdery and blowing everywhere . That gets me to 11” YTD. Makes me feel dirty . Took another just now as the wind drifted it a bit more 

[ma blizzard]

4.2" total, 3.9" today and 0.3" yesterday

13.5" season to date 

Seems like I was in a local min, looks like just southeast in Grafton / Westboro got about an inch more than me today. Makes sense, I was on the fringe of the metrowest band from 1-2 pm just missing the meat of it.  

[MaineJayhawk]

Ended up with double what I was expecting .. 14.0"
