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.

Well, there are years like 2018. I had snow on the ground the entire month of March. Of course it took 40+ inches of snow that month to do that. I believe the city had 18 inches in total that month.

29.7 here after Saturdays 1.4. Highland Mills NY I will not be outdone by Rob.

Amazing what two days will do. I was projected over 30 inches, and I'm 50 miles north of the city, by the same model and two days later the Delmarva may not see flurries. It's actually hysterical that it's that bad.

My biggest storm ever here 35 inches, Danbury CT 30 miles due east of me I think ended up with about 10 inches becuase of all the rain they started with.

It would be interesting to see what the average temps for each period. I would guess that period in the 50's was at least 3-5 degrees colder

Well you can't say that for 90% of the geographic state of NY. I suppose if you just look at NYC and LI maybe. Although the CT coastal and RI coatsal areas and even the Cape snowfall averages are on par with most of the north shore of LI. Albany NY and Boston are at the same latitude but Albany averages a foot more of snow per year and is also much colder because of inland location. Actually the three snowiest cities in the United States, population above 100,000, are all in NY, Syracuse, Rochester and Buffalo. Lake effect related I get it but the Adirondack region which is more than 1/3 of the state does just fine in Winter.
