Chicago WX Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Another snowfall season is upon us...and so is another contest. This year we'll be doing the entire season...which officially runs from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. So, obviously it's already started, but whatever. The contest is pretty simple: guess the total season snowfall for each of the following 20 sites in our region/sub-forum. Alpena, MI (APN) Chicago, IL (ORD) Cleveland, OH (CLE) Columbus, OH (CMH) Detroit, MI (DTW) Fort Wayne, IN (FWA) Grand Rapids, MI (GRR) Green Bay, WI (GRB) Indianapolis, IN (IND) La Crosse, WI (LSE) London, ON (YXU) Louisville, KY (SDF) Marquette, MI (MQT) Milwaukee, WI (MKE) Minneapolis, MN (MSP) Moline, IL (MLI) Paducah, KY (PAH) Peoria, IL (PIA) St. Louis, MO (STL) Toronto, ON (YYZ) Tiebreaker #1: December total snowfall at ORD Tiebreaker #2: January total snowfall at IND Tiebreaker #3: February total snowfall at DTW Winner will be the person who has the least total error from actual snowfall. Deadline to enter is November 1, 2015. Good luck to all. A little help maybe, but here's the last 30 years of season snowfall totals for all 20 sites (and the average of those 30 seasons). Nino seasons shaded in red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 St. Louis has had 27 seasons that failed to reach 10" of total snowfall (out of a total of 131 seasons). So, not totally unprecedented. 4.0" would be good though, for the 5th least snowiest season on record. Their all-time clunker is 0.7" in 1931-32.

hm8 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 GLOV forecast ensemble: Sorted by mean snowfall forecast. Included a chart without MQT, since it kinda stretches things out...

SchaumburgStormer Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 GLOV forecast ensemble: Sorted by mean snowfall forecast. Included a chart without MQT, since it kinda stretches things out...
