I have been fooled too many times by that HRRR thinking I was in for another foot of snow and ended up with an inch additional. . Yeah I agree. While I love the hunt, I really love the snow more. Done this for too long and at some point ya just gotta let it b what it’s gonna b and stop obsessing over qpf outputs. We’ve been jipped a plenty down here so it’s nice to see one come in pretty much as advertised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did look to see how the 18z models did, other than the Euro, and they all had that same heavy stripe of 4-5" after 1pm that was on the 12z runs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Final: 8.75”. Amazing Storm. Sheltered spot so a bit more stable than anywhere else. Shoveling was made more difficult because the wind blew it back to where it came from. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 6:30: Light snow. Temp is 23.5. Average of 3 measurements is 6.2". About 4-5" on the driveway. For the first time in over 1,000 days...it's time to shovel! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 I'm at 5.5", but I'm wondering if wind didn't shave some off the top. I'm going try to find a more sheltered location and try again after supper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most models had you guys getting 1-3" more over there regardless of what totals they showed. I busted real low on you guys but undercutting the models. Congrats! I should have stuck with my first call for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 So 5-6" ya think? I'd hope so. We had insane ratios for the 3 heaviest hours where I picked up 6" in those 3 hoursSent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Just want to say again - what a fun unicorn storm. Fully in daylight hours, a 6 hour duration mostly, and some amazing totals due to forcing. Can we do this again this year, please?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Maybe a tiny last little band to go may add a tenth or so of snow yet this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 I got 6 and 6.25 in more sheltered locations. I guess I'll officially go with 6" at this point unless anything significant falls later. Nice event overall, and some of the heaviest rates I've seen in years. Now, bring on spring... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
