we concluded Mab's 'waste heat' output was between 10^17th - 10^20th Joules, based on how much power it takes it to snow across the entire Chicago area in may.. 4 feet deep

Here is a thread on the subject.

thanks!

vultur:
Um, this isn't even close to neutron star gravity. Neutron stars are hundreds of billions of times Earth gravity.

Knnn omitted the ^.. surface gravity of a neutron star is 10^11 g, not 1011 g :D

even so, 1011 g (assuming knnn's math is correct, I haven't done it myself) is more than enough to have wrecked the city, even for a tenth of a second.

since Harry is still walking and talking, I assume the force was purely kinetic, not gravitational, and was much less.

robertltux:
things are a bit err Squishy on this but maybe what happened is that Harry opened a Picogram sized Black Hole for a Picosecond so that the effect was SPLAT! (and what we "saw" was the result of Harry bending Space/Time how he wanted).


Of course Now since Harry is The Winter Knight and can tap The Winter WellSpring he might decide that an entire BLOCK needs to be flatter.

I could also see Harry making a Staff and Cane combo for when Father Forthill needs to Rebuke Mountains.
