Cyclone-68 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 I don’t think I can recall a storm with such incredible discrepancies in snow totals in such a short distance. Doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened just that I can’t recall it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You rarely ever see an OKX 2015 kind of disaster forecast. And in general we’re slow to ramp up to those extreme numbers as they are occurring. Like October 2011 and December 2020 in NH for us. Yea, I get it...but it was clear to me several days out that someone high up would see 3'. Again, I have nothing to lose, though.....and I get burned sometimes, like I did here near the coast.

I'd love to head south just for warmer weather at this point I'll always take a good March snow event, but I'm ready for at least some 60's and 70's right now.

metagraphica Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 37 minutes ago, Cold Miser said: My total was somewhere between 0.0 and 0.00, either way, well below the warning criteria that was issued. Of all of the winter storms to produce worthless results this one was indeed the King Queen. Queen Brenda was the one futile storm to rule all futile storms. The futility was so on-point with the rest of the season. I actually shed a tear this morning as I looked back in delight, recalling how this storm slowly began to rage, ultimately building into a perfect crescendo of nothing. At it's wet, white teasing peak this final blast of winter brilliantly failed me one last time. And it did so in grand fashion...a wonderfully precise, in-tune orchestration of wind, and cold rain, ultimately ending as a fervor of white rain...again...one more time, kicking a beaten man while down. I don't think I will ever witness such a LeBron James type flop in my lifetime. I will admit, I was scared as I thought I would indeed limp up to 12" for the season (a mark that I have been trying to avoid). The forecast called for anywhere from 4"-8", but lucky for me I stuck to my guns, and this goal was ultimately thwarted, and I am happy to report that I am still at 11" for the season. Congrats to those who received anywhere from .5" - 36" My 0.10" brings my total up to 11" on the season also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 This storm capped off what I think has been the most frustrating season for me. Literally nothing went right. Most ratters are just ones you can see from a mile away. That big area of H5 blues in AK....you know it's over. But man, for a season that had potential and to come out with what will be at least top 2 or 3 ratters around here....it's brutal. I'm glad many of you at least cashed in on something, but I truly wish I could have 4 months of my life back. What an absolute waste. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 @4Seasons Southington had .5” of snow yesterday. Total in the season at my place is 12.8”. Holy smokes what a RAT. Worst I can recall here. In a normal close to 50” season it’s a disaster. Bury this POS winter once and for all. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 For once I beat the other Northfield guys. Of course they measure every 24hr so there was melting and compaction, but being a couple hundred feet up above town may have helped. Had about 14” of new depth this morning when I snowblowed so I beat their totals regardless. Lots of elevation variation across the area and those who were 32° racked up a lot more over those who were 33°-34°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
