Measured 15". I guess I'll take it. I can't believe I am disappointed with 15" but when you anticipate twice that...
Still a few light to mod bands out there.

Boy, that was so true.In addition to shoveling duties, I cut the lawns,took out garbage,maintained two automobiles (tune ups, change oil, etc) and be at my Father's beck and call to be his helper on any job around the properties.

Doc, you sound like Syo.Wanna trade those 15 inches for my 3.5,LOL!

by **CPcantmeasuresnow** Tue Jan 27, 2015 10:51 am

And Doc that's what it is. With this last band pretty much over, 3.5 inches as of 10Am.

Oh well better than nothing.

Ace how much total

by **weatherwatchermom** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:00 am

wow the snow just started falling hard and is blowing with gusts up to 18 mph

by **snow247** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:01 am

Snow is picking up a bit here, noticed a band of snow heading my way. Hoping it doesn't break up so I can finish this storm with more than 2 inches.

Whoa Nellie,CP, still snowing moderate to light here, looks like a little more curving in on the radar.

Yes, we could have totally busted with nothing like up where I trout fish in Roscoe!!

Band is just sitting over me

Snow just stopped here in Summit. Total is about 6".

by **docstox12** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:15 am

22 , 88%, 29.77 F

One last nice burst of moderate snow here.Best I've seen in the storm up here. Radar shows precip collapsing on western flank now.

Got some nice one foot drifts around the property, anyway. Almost one foot of snowpack that should last a while as well.

Life is good!!!

by **Math23x7** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:18 am

Bigger picture shows much of I-91 getting dry slotted. The heavy snow has been consistent in Boston and look at Maine! Heavy snow with temperatures in the single digits!

I would gladly trade my probably 15" for less. In fact, you can keep your 3.5" AND have my 15". Serious drifts in my driveway and still snowing and very windy. Have no idea how I'm getting out of here.

by **billg315** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:31 am

I probably sound like a broken record, but 11:30 and still getting light to sometimes moderate in Somerville. And the back end has rotated back west from here. So at least on duration for this area the models weren't all wrong. I'll take what I can get! Lol.

by **jmanley32** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:38 am

Its snowing here for past hour or so, I guess I may be able to tack something onto my estimated measure of 5-6 inches, very hard to measure but i took average of a undrifted area in the middle of our courtyard. Very windy now, bitterly cold.

by pkmak Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:40 am

I got around 12 -14 here in Douglaston with 3 foot snow drifts around the house and garage.

by **jmanley32** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:41 am

Hiow much does boston have and the cape? They look to be getting absolutly wrecked been snowing heavy for what like 12+ hours now, could see 3-4 feet maybe? Lucky them

I may be able to add a few tenth of an inch for what its worth. Without the hype prior to the storm I'd be very happy with this storm so I'm gonna look at it that way. I cant complain too much about double digit snowfall.

We may top 4 inches before this is through Doc.

Of course yesterday at this time I thought I'd be writing we may top 40 inches before this is through.

by **jmanley32** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:45 am

dtone you had double digit snow?! I only got 6 inches if that. Talk about localized!

Boston proper as of this morning was 18 inches...Framingham..so far 30inches and they will continue to snow all day...saw a report this morning..

by **jmanley32** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:46 am

Guys, this is done, lets move on and there is more possibility in fact the GFS (which seems may be our new pro) has several including one big storm. I posted in long range.

by **jmanley32** Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:47 am

Jeez by the radar dbxz they could top 4 feet then wow, no wonder TWC was on top of them.
