I don't know how to convert here. If a city received 36" (3 feet) of snow, how many inches of rain would that be?

I always heard that 1 ft of snow = 1 inch of rain, but what do I know?

1 inch of rain make 10 inches of snow, so 36" of snow would come out to 3.6 inches of rain!
Click to expand...

More or less. So much depends on the temperatures/amount of moisture in the snow. It's a COLD storm, so this stuff is likely running a foot of snow per inch of water, or maybe even a little more.

This true. Currently inside - although the snow has blown in around the corners of the front door - I have my own mini-snow drift in here. But the door not banging now.

Plenty of food. A bale came down last night. Along with a 4 cu ft square of wood chips.

Owner checked the water pail to see if it was frozen - still fine. My breath makes glorious design on the window.

And we still have power!!!

Now just a matter of waiting it out. Looking like 34 inches plus by tomorrow? It may be a few days before I get out to the paddock to um, freshen up.

Keep safe...

Seems like even though this was a big storm, it's not the worst we have had. Maybe we are just getting used to historic storms occurring more frequently.

Will it ever stop? It's still snowing here and they are calling for another 3 to 6 inches tonight. That will take us to a good 3 feet. :eek: With a 300 foot driveway and 2 large decks I think we'll be busy tomorrow. On the plus side we kept our power, we're warm (but it is sooo cold out) and we have plenty of food. On the down side, another 3 to 6 inches coming our way in a couple of days.

Stopped snowing hours ago and only got 2 1/2" inch temps will drop for us tonight to low teens and see some single digit temps in the forecast in the next few days.
Thursday and Thursday night we're back on for a chance of more snow and how much we could get is unknown.

Still snowing pretty hard here also. Warnings up till 4 am. We have around 11 inches so far. Amazed, I am happy we didn't/aren't getting what you got.
Radar still showing some pretty heavy bands of snow coming off the Atlantic.

Yup. They've up the amount to 4 to 8 additional inches. That will take us over 3 feet!

Looks like you dodged the bullet, Wise Owl. About time you caught a break in the Great White North.

Ok, so we have that mess of snow cleaned up. Now waiting for the clipper to come thru tomorrow night/Friday morning. THEN, we have a quote, "juicy" system coming for Sunday.......weather channel guy said stay tuned for info on that one. BUT, looks to bring a lot of heavy, wet stuff our way. OH JOY....
The stuff today was light and fluffy. Snowblower loves that stuff and flings it a long way. Heavy stuff it takes forever to move it.

Must be our turn for snow.

My back hurts.

Oh He&& The north country of NY gets that much from lake effect all the time. Seriously. Measuring in FEET is the norm up there.

Yep, looks like a normal Buffalo, NY winter to me. Guess that is why I have a big snow blower, plow on my ATV with chains on all 4 wheels, dedicated snow tires and TWO sets of tire chains for all my 4-wheel drive vehicles. Life is good! :groucho:

Clear sky's tonight! I can see stars for the first time in days and there is even a moon. Tomorrow we're back on for a 70% chance for more snow. Friday and night, major wind with gusts up tp 29 Mph, temps down to 9 degrees.

I'll see your nine and subtract 10 degrees from that for our low tonight. -9 is for our low. THEN, warms up a bit tomorrow and then the bottom falls out for Friday thru Sun night. Glad we have lot's of firewood....

Just had 3 cords dumped in front of our deck this past Friday. It's all covered with a tarp with a foot of snow on in now, lol. At least it blocks some of the wind out of the east, I guess....(it's NEXT year's wood or at least part of next year's wood) don't ask why it gets delivered in January. shakes head at supplier.

Looks like the rest of the winter is going to be busy steering the snowblower up here. At least we have one. I HATE snow piled up by plows. Eventually there isn't anywhere to push it to. Blowing it into the woods works much better.

Its easier to get out of the woods when the ground is frozen.

Likely they don't use a skid like Owner, but large machinery still moves easier on frozen ground.

Chilly day today. Nice and sunny out my window earlier. Owner's "Pepsi Hits the Spot" thermometer never went above 25. It's 19 now.

Owner is pretty much cleaned up on the drive and access to the house/barn. My mini-drift was shoveled out by the Mrs. and the door was open until the sun went down.

Stableboy didn't make it in (shovelling himself?) so Owner had to attend to the stall. "MOVE OVER" he says pushing several times, acting short tempered.

Another square of wood chips which smell nice.

Owner is talking about plowing out the paddock. He's done it before but it's been a couple of years.

Cleaning the stall makes him think about it...

I am glad to see everyone made it through the storm ok. We are still digging out. The drifts are huge. My chicken run took me a few hours to even shovel off the sagging roof and fix it then work on the drifts inside. I have to finish tomorrow as I got interrupted twice with cars on my street getting stuck and needing a hand digging them out. Why people even tried to go anywhere today is beyond me. The roads are barely passable.

Boston sets new seasonal snow record: Over 9 feet

March 16, 2015
By MARK PRATT and WILLIAM J. KOLE
Associated Press

* BOSTON (AP) -- Boston set an all-time snowfall record and flirted with another mark: most snark in a single winter.

The latest storm in an epic winter edged the total just over the 9-foot mark. Sunday's storm dropped 2.9 inches at Logan International Airport, pushing the seasonal accumulation to 108.6 inches and surpassing the previous record of 107.6 set in 1995-96.

Forecasters said Monday the city could get more later in the week - a bleak outlook for Bostonians who've had more than enough.

"Is this the part where we all get to say, `I'm going to Disney World?'" said Justin O'Brien, a Boston attorney, capturing the sense of cynicism and sheer snow fatigue.

"I wished I would have blocked the numbers from friends back in Southern California texting me screen shots of the 80-plus degree weather there," said Matt Guerrieri, a wine distributor who moved to Boston a few weeks before the first snows hit.

Some were actually rooting for the record.

An over one-month snow siege has parts of New England blowing past all-time records.

Below, we have a rundown of heaviest snowstorm, snowiest month and season lists for the hardest hit parts of New England. Click on each bolded city link for the latest forecast.

Boston

*As of 7 pm EDT on March 15, the National Weather Service in Boston announced that Boston Logan Airport received 108.6 inches of snow, officially making the 2014-2015 season the all time snowiest season for the city. In the last 21 years, Boston has now had 4 of its top 5 snowiest seasons. (These counts cover the period from July 1 through June 30, to include snow in the fall and spring months.)

1. 2014-2015: 108.6 inches
2. 1995-1996: 107.6 inches
3. 1993-1994: 96.3 inches
4. 1947-1948: 89.2 inches
5. 2004-2005: 86.6 inches
6. 1977-1978: 85.1 inches
7. 1992-1993: 83.9 inches
8. 2010-2011: 81.0 inches
9. 1915-1916: 79.2 inches
10. 1919-1920: 73.4 inches

For perspective, the average seasonal snowfall at Logan Airport is 43.5 inches.

Beyond March 15, an average of 4.8 inches of snow falls in Boston through the season's final measurable (at least 0.1 inch) snow. Here are some stats on when that last snow of the season has occurred:

- Average last date: March 27
- Last measurable snow in 2014: April 16 (0.3 inch)
- Last measurable snow in previous record season: April 10, 1996 (5.4 inches; total of 7.3 inches from April 7-10)

February has obliterated the previous snowiest month on record in Boston.
