40/70 Benchmark

Reasonable IMO.

My guess is up to 3" above 1000 feet in ORH CO and N CT and perhaps several inches well above that in the Berks.

I think 4" is probably reserved for the higher spots of the Berkshires.

Right...not bothering. Marginal enough at low elervation this time of year....if out of banding, forget it. We're onto next season.

It will probably do that for most of the event since the best dynamics remain W of me.

Crazy how often this general theme has reoccured over the last several years...always either that, or about 10 mi north of me in NH.

I doubt its 3"+, but then again, I haven't a fu(k to give and have not viewed a model since early March-

I'd take ass mist over 90s.

I have zero snow to show for it...what do you have, 2" since March 1?? Keep it going?? I suppose its better than 90s...

Seasonal models often are too biased towards default ENSO regimes.

Strictly ENSO.....I don't mean it was the best analog overall...

I did expect the marginal La Nina to evolve into a Modoki event, which worked out. 2008-2009 was the best ENSO analog IMO.

For sure.....kicked my ass in 2023, I made some adjustments and was better this season, though far from perfect. The +PNA/cooler temps was a bit of a curveball, but I did not oversell snowfall this time.

Totally. I get that its mildly exciting in some spots, but pardon me if I sleep through it.

0.0" overnight. 32.0" on the season.

1972-1973 was very similar to 2023-2024 in that respect, but obviously the latter, modern version was much warmer.

Interesting....

Nice. All rain in Meh-thuen.

22.6

I don't think my area will decline any time soon, but I do think its turning more feast or famine.

I think SSW have some unique subtelties in their own right....perhaps some manifest a bit differently or less/more in the AO index itself for reasons not entirely understood, but I am inclined to say this had some impact....sure, there is some ambiguity, but unlike the February bottom-up deal, this one seems to have downwelled, more or less.

I know, just being a d1ck.

All I got out of this is that you have camel toe

Yes, IMO.

I know for a fact that this happens...and yes, I am sure it did back then, but the point is this fact buttresses the assertion that the inflation of contemporary measuring techiques is exaggerated. Obviously that hypothetical scenario is dramtized and realtively uncommon, but it happens often to a lesser extent and is that extreme on occassion. These larger events in which the aforementioned scenario is most likley to take place are also the type of events that are purported to exageratre modern season totals becaus ehtye can offer the largest discrepancy between measuring techniques....it goes both ways. Larger events with immense amounts of precipitation over a protracted period of time present unique challenges for the oberserver.
