Any way to do both? I know you obviously understand the difference, but I'm not sure everyone gets the difference between a six inch calendar day and the time period between six inch events, overlapping midnight. The same for four inch events.

Isn't this list somewhat misleading though? Isn't it just calculating calendar days with less than 6 inches of snow and not events? Couldn't the same event have 5 inches of snow through midnight and 5 inches after midnight for a 10 inch storm total and this list would still count that as consecutive days without a six inch snowfall?

I might be confusing the years but wasn't that the March that had 8 consecutive days of 80 and above in Chicago? I believe for them that March ended up warmer than the following April.

I'm officially calling an end to the snow cover today. Shaded areas still holding out tough but full sun areas are done. With only 30.3 inches of snow so far this season there have been exactly 50 days of solid snow cover. Would have liked more snow, but the temperatures were average to slightly below so the Winter gets a C in my book so far for the 50 days of looking like winter, and the White Christmas as an added bonus. It could still grade out a B but that would take an above average snowfall March, right now that doesn't look likely. Looking back this winter is very similar to 2021/22. We had 34.8 inches of snow and 53 days of snow cover, that winter.

I will most likely call an end to the snow cover in my neighborhood by the end of the day tomorrow. Doubtful we get through the day above 50% coverage. Even this stuff couldn't last for ever. The last couple of days put a serious dent in it.

3-4 inch snow depth here, very few bare spots, a couple at best, 98% coverage. 46 days now of snow cover this season, with only 30.3 inches of snow so far for the whole season That's the cold air doing it's job, with roughly the same amount of snow as the last two winters. This winter already blows those two away, which is a low bar.

0.6 inches yesterday enough to whiten up the 3-4 inch snow/ice pack. 30.3 inches for the season and 45 days of snow cover this season and counting. Last year 30.6 inches for the season and 26 days of snow cover total. Normal temperatures for December through February make it feel like I actually experienced winter for the first time in three years.

I've never understood your desire for scorching heat. I love a summer day in the high 70's with a nice breeze. You can take the 90's or what we seem to get so much now is the humid 80's. No thanks.

Euro track record the last storm was abysmal. I would not trust any of them pro snow or no snow. Fool me once shame on you, fool me 127 times and if you're a snow weenie you want to believe the 128th time will be different.

I had snow on the ground every day in March 2018. I realize those aren't the norm but I'm only 20 miles north of New City so it happens.

I'm giving it right back.

I'll take the 1.5-2.0 stripe it puts over my house, the snowpack needs a little freshening up. Doubt it happens though. DC and CapeMay looked like locks for this storm no matter what happened. Well "what" happened and they're getting shutout similar to us.

It depends when in March. On average The first week in March and the last week in March are very different for obvious reasons.

What area? The forum covers an area about 75 miles out in all directions from NYC. That's a lot of different areas weather wise, and even if places 50-75 miles south of the city are projected by the NAM to get 3-4 inches I wouldn't hold my breath.

Are we really still doing this? I admire the perseverance, but sometimes you just have to let it go.
