3/15-15/2007 Snowfall: My Estimates

[Nimbus]

I'm curious what the snowfall totals will be up in the Portland through Augusta Maine region. Looks like over a foot of snow from radar review.

I think we had about a good 2" of slush here. It's as hard as a rock on the driveway and back patio.

Some sleet to start, then snow. About 6" or so before it changed back to sleet. Then hours of sleet. Drifts of snow/sleet knee high by my back door. A little higher by the front door.

My neighbors are all out chopping ice now because they shoveled yesterday before the sleet. One thing I learned growing up in New England, don't shovel a noreaster until its done. They almost always end with sleet or ice.

Well our flight from Bradley airport to Pittsburgh got canceled because of the storm and I'm missing the wedding that I was looking forward to attending.

Windsor Locks, CT ended up with 10 inches of snow and sleet and Sunderland, MA got just about 11 inches of mostly snow.

After the sleet:



I'm still awaiting final figures. At that time, the forecast will be verified.

Oh Don! Those mute swans are gorgeous as well as the background!
