Lava Rock Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 At least it looks like winter again. That 12.5" we got last wknd before last really melted fast. Pack would be huge if we still had most of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Some pics from ORH on winter hill. Just over 14”…amazingly less than 5 miles way at similar elevation had over 2 feet…the 900-925 warmth overnight prior to about 7am was most of the difference (about 13-17” vs 4” at 7am yesterday…beyond 7am, snow accumulated roughly at similar rates/amounts) 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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°. What is your depth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbenedet Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Lol this graphic which leaves out the Monads, Berks, and ORH hills. Missing a datapoint for Portland - 7" there? "where most of us live" map. Lame. AF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I was thinking around a foot when I went, so 14" was actually exceeding expectations, lol. It's def a bummer to miss another foot by a few miles, but at least most of the part that we were getting screwed on was overnight....during waking hours, it absolutely pounded. It's better than watching mostly rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In larger events, I've noticed they'll usually not issue a final map until at least 12 hours after it's over. So I'd think by later this afternoon or evening theyll have a final map. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 And I think you had to measure at peak rates and peak storm to see those numbers. My "7" is less than half just since evening and overnight, due to ongoing melting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha - was thinking the same thing. I have a south-facing property and may not even bother snowblowing my driveway since the March sun is doing its thing. I did shovel the plow piles. I appreciated your post-mortem comments last night. Seems like immediate coastal areas have been especially tricky lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
