CoastalWx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I'm statisfied; this storm was a KU, but I didn't get 2'. Some old terd must have measured his wife's FUPA. You more or less had about 20". That's awesome. I haven't seen that since '05. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codfishsnowman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Just an incredible day!!! Westport and Fairfield just crushed, secondary roads are a mess, main road are decent, I95 was down to one to two lanes very dangerous as there was no warning, but hardly a car on the road. Got down to Norwalk, roads were down to the blacktop, measured 14 inches at one of my clients homes, Dad said Darien had around 13 and monster in laws had around 15 in Greenwich. Have no idea how they will have school tom, no sidewalks plowed, no place to put the snow and many side roads have only been plowed once and are barely passable, rte 1 was fine. Congrats to all just an amazing winter. Differences as you headed sw on i95 towards nyc on I95 were pretty amazing. so westport/fairfield had legit two feet and there was a foot difference from there to norwalk?

I haven't seen a foot since March '07, and even that was a "close enough" 11.5'' or something. Best storm here in what seems like ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piqsirpoq Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Here's a little vid from around 4:00 this afternoon in Chelmsford. Nice drifts everywhere, but digging my car out from the plowed bank sucked. Sorry for the shaky-cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKpowdah Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Very light snow continuing. Come ooooon, just need one small moderate snow shower to pass overhead and then I'll be happy ... well I mean I AM happy anyway haha. Dom, what are you up to?

CoastalWx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 BTW, nice to see people with 4-wheel drive haven't learned that snow pack roads are still slippery for them. I saw 2 cars that were in an accident. One a pick-up on its side, and the other an Explorer. Some day, people will learn not to go 70 on a snow packed highway.

codfishsnowman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I think there is a way both could be done...you bend her over the computer desk so you can face the screen. I was looking at the pns statements and it sounds like from you to bristol and south and east jackpotted but there seemed to be a fair amount less just to the nw in collinsville and avon area... just curious what your total snow depth including the snow from previous events came to?

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 No, he'e correct. You don't go with Logan International's amount, Outside of Logan there is much more. Trust me. Exactly why the Blizzard of 78 has always been somewhat distorted by the total measured at logan. Relatives in Hull...just a few miles away from the airport...it was like snow sludge low ratio, mud snow. On the same token it distorts all storms not just 78. -- I saw the PNS 4.4 from Bourne. That's over the bridge or over by Wareham I'm sure. We had 4" on OTG here at 435am with the first tsnow, didn't measure but when I woke back up at 5 it was sleet then rain. There's an east sandwich report of 4.4 from this am which is a reliable report that comes in all the time. So I'm pretty comfortable all around with these numbers, I'm closer to east sandwich then parts of Bourne. Today we got 2.5" of fluff on top. I did not measure all day, just now. So that's about 6 hours of snow at less than 1/2" an hour, not too shabby. Storm total 6.5"....and that's actually a real measurement from me versa end of storm round down from local reports because I don't measure at 6 hour intervals unless it's a good storm. Storm had high winds, thunder snow, thunder sleet (first for me), a fake eye with a clear patch, and then off and on heavy backlash snows. Cannot beat it for where I live, shi* weighs ten tons. I have about 4" OTG right now, including the morning slop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codfishsnowman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 What a great week of winter wx! SN - as the last bands pivot through. Over knee deep drifts in the yard. So psyched the entire Valley got pounded. I was hearing 18"+ around Springfield, that would be their biggest since 2001. I am in the east forest park section of springfield and i am going to go with 18 as a final..no clearing no boards or anything like that..no accounting for any compaction,etc.. we never had rates over two inches/hr but it was steady mod to occ heavy snow for a good twelve hrs.Totals on the ground right around twenty inches with the two or so inches average from the weekend's events that was left over.

Of course I guess nobody could tell based on the excessive drifting and coastal damage that took place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
